< Back Julie McGregor Hi, I’m Julie. I’m a qualified Life & Leadership Coach, a Supervisor and an Independent Facilitator. With 13 years spent in the business world and 15 in the not-for-profit & development sector, I have experienced working with many individuals and organisations navigating a myriad of challenges and goals. I have loved the many hundreds of hours I’ve spent coaching, facilitating and training. No matter what the situation, it is always a delight to help people gain new perspectives about their own situations and work with them as they make key changes in order to move forward. https://www.juliemcgregor.co.nz/ My Approach I believe that Supervision is a collaborative and supportive partnership designed to sustain you both professionally and personally.
