We are a boutique consultancy rooted in the belief that psychological safety is the soil in which meaningful change, connection and performance grow. Cenaera stands for centred leaders in a new era. We guide organisations through cultural transitions with a blend of systemic insight, coaching expertise and deep listening. Our approach is thoughtful, research-informed and grounded in real human experience.
We support leaders and teams with powerful, practical approaches that spark fresh thinking, faster learning and more effective collaboration. This helps organizations tackle complex challenges and grow in a sustainable way.
Our vision is for individuals, teams and organizations to reach new levels of collaboration, innovation and performance. Creating the conditions for real growth and flourishing. We guide a shift toward leadership that is centred, authentic and grounded in inquiry.
Psychological safety rooted in science based and practical experiences are at the core of everything we do.
Knowing. About psychological safety is a good place to start but doesn’t necessarily change behaviour or outcomes.
Doing. Involves practice. We teach the shared practices that shift behaviour and results.
Being. Is a stage where practices have become integrated and embedded delivering consistent results.
Systemic coaching for leaders creating thriving teams
We support senior leaders through one-to-one coaching designed to expand perspective, deepen awareness, and unlock systemic change. Leaders step back to examine their team and organizational dynamics, surfacing what stakeholders value, identifying performance blockers, and exploring ways to foster psychological safety in key relationships.
In a safe and reflective coaching space, leaders are encouraged to experiment with new behaviours, adopt an inquiry-driven mindset, and tap into the collective intelligence of those they lead. The result: more centred, courageous leadership that enables teams to grow, innovate, and thrive.
Unlocking high-performing, psychologically safe teams
We work with CEOs and leadership teams to cultivate high-functioning teams where exceptional collaboration, innovation, and performance become the norm. Using the Fearless Organization Scan (FOS), grounded in the work of Prof. Amy Edmondson, we measure team psychological safety and use the results to spark meaningful, context-specific dialogue.
Our intact team debriefs are transformational systemic interventions, revealing what’s working, where trust needs to grow, and how the team can shift behaviours to support greater learning and performance. Each session is guided by a seasoned team coach with deep expertise in psychological safety and systemic change.
Scaling psychological safety as a foundation for lasting change
We partner with CEOs and senior leaders to guide long-term, systemic culture transformation. Using remeasurement and feedback cycles, we help organizations track the impact over time ensuring psychological safety becomes a measurable driver of performance. Where needed, we integrate other insight tools and design systemic ‘experiments’ to shift deep-rooted dynamics. Our global network supports enterprise-wide implementation, and we build internal capability to embed psychological safety at scale. By bridging the gap between knowing, doing and being, we help organizations move from awareness to embedded, lived culture.

“When you change the way you look at the world, the world you look at changes”.
Nicole believes that growing consciousness is key to transformation in a world which is in constant and fast change. We need courageous and centred leaders at all levels to influence the world in a positive way. Liberating that power generates energy, sustainable business results and inspiration.
Nicole has over 25+ years of experience in facilitating complex change from a cultural transformation perspective. She focuses her work on creating meaningful change from a whole system perspective, and in developing leadership for the future.
Her passion is working with values and levels of consciousness as the vehicle through which leaders connect with their purpose and passion. Clients respect her for quickly understanding and addressing the underlying patterns of organizational- and team dynamics and translate this to what that means on a personal level. Through the Fearless Organization, Nicole works in partnership with Amy Edmondson, a Harvard Business School professor specialised in building psychologically safe workplaces.

The age of top-down control is over. The new era calls for leaders who lead from within.
At Cenaera, we believe in centred leadership, grounded in presence, powered by purpose.
We listen deeply. We act with care. We lead with clarity.
This is for the leaders who are done with surface-level change.
The ones who feel the cost of toxic cultures and long for something truer.
The ones who carry weighty questions and still dare to stay open.
We reject the myth that performance must come at the cost of people.
We refuse to reduce organisations to numbers and structures alone.
We say no to fear-based leadership, disconnected teams and worn-out ways of working.
We create psychologically safe spaces where real conversations unfold.
Where insight leads to breakthrough.
Where teams learn, grow and flourish, together.
Where leadership becomes more human, not less.
We centre.
We soften.
We listen.
We shift.
We grow.
We lead from within.
This is Cenaera.
The soil where transformation takes root.
Come lead the new era from the inside out.
