About our brand

Enabling Leadership was born from a long-standing collaboration between Alison Taylor and Caren Rangi. Having worked together for over 10 years, in 2024 they began co-designing a new approach to support leadership development in both governance and operational settings.

Their shared vision led to the creation of innovative programmes for CEOs, chairs, and their boards — designed to strengthen relationships, challenge thinking, share experiences, and build practical tools for effective governance and leadership. These programmes are for leaders ready to invest in their growth, their partnerships, and the long-term success of their organisations.
