The Secure Start Podcast Episode 8: Lynne Peyton
Welcome to the Secure Start Podcast. I am Colby Pearce, and joining me for this episode is a vastly experienced leader and consultant to top teams in the child safeguarding and community services sectors. My guest is Lynne Peyton. BioBorn and educated in Belfast Northern Ireland, Lynne’s spirit for adventure was fostered in the Officers’ Training Corps where she participated in a wide range of adventure training and leadership activities, including a transfer to the Virginia National Guard during a temporary social work position in a family crisis centre in Richmond in 1980. She also gained her Private Pilot license during that time.A qualified Social Worker, Lynne is a former senior manager in Health and Social Services, having held both operational and strategic management responsibilities for mental health and services for children and families. She was the director of a not-for-profit children’s charity for a number of years. She is also a master practitioner in NLP and neuro strategies, which she believes are essential to building rapport and great communication. Since establishing her consultancy almost 20 years ago, Lynne has been passionate about helping organisations working with vulnerable children to get better results. Her CORE Leadership Programme (Communication, Optimisation; Relationships, Evaluation) simultaneously targets executive teams as well as managers at all levels in organisations to bring about changes in attitude, culture, confidence, performance and outcomes. In the words of one CEO, ‘Lynne has an amazing ability tounlock individual potential and bring out the best in people and inorganisations’.Key areas include: Strategic development Building effective top teams Coaching and mentoring senior managersMediationEmpowering front line team leadersLynne has always had an entrepreneurial spirit and has been investing in real estate since the 1990s, with a portfolio of residential and commercial properties in UK and USA. She bought her first house in an auction in Belfast – so she could get practical experience, as you can only learn so much from theory.She had significant losses in the 2008 recession and she and her husband had to learn some hard lessons and develop new smarter investment strategies, and learn to read the market and anticipate trends.She has recently invested in the housing market in Sydney and is partnering with her son and his colleagues to build a Family Urgent Care Centre in Perth, Australia.Lynne is passionate about growing and contributing and is fortunate that her husband Rodney, a retired trauma surgeon and expert in medical malpractice, feels the same way. After completing every course offered by Tony Robbins, they were both Senior Leaders with the organisation for 7 years, supporting participants at Robbins’ events in the UK and USA several times each year. They then participated in Success Resources International, where they were introduced to JT Foxx, who has been called ‘the world’s number one wealth and business coach’. Being mentored by JT has vastly increased their business acumen and exposed them to a fantastic group of likeminded entrepreneurs who are committed to adding value, educating new business owners and giving back.At 72, Lynne believes life is for living and giving and she has no plans to retire anytime soon.On her podcast, ‘Success is Never Accidental’ she interviews highly successful people across countries and industries, to share their insights and themes for success.
