Publications

It is my hope and desire to write words that evoke awareness and challenge the status quo.  I feel privileged to have had original research published, especially in the context of my beloved and troubled homeland, Northern Ireland.  I also feel deeply honoured to contribute with co-authors,  chapters and sections to influential coaching books and industry press.
