Trust fuels performance,
build it deliberately.
I’m Mira Magecha – former Chief People Officer, now helping leaders
build trust in themselves, their teams and their organisations.
Trust is vital for high performing teams
- These workshops were perfectly timed for a leadership team leading a transformation
- We brought diverse leaders together to build trust and connection
- Quickly created psychological safety to spark honest conversations and collaboration
- The result: a more united, confident and high-performing leadership team
- I’d highly recommend Mira for any senior leadership team that need to work better together.

Is it them? Or is it me?
I’ve seen challenging people issues surface at every level, in every sector and size of organisation. Even the most seasoned leaders aren’t immune.
Doubt creeps in, confidence slips and certainty turns to second-guessing. That’s when burnout bites, failure creeps in and brilliant careers crack.
Are you that leader? The one everyone looks up to? Yet every thing lands on your desk. Nothing moves unless you push it.
Your team, on paper, perfect. In reality? Chaos. Everyone’s pulling in different directions, half-listening, half-delivering. You lean on your ‘go-to’ people because at least they get it done. The rest… you’ve half-given up on, but you can’t be seen to have favourites.
You’re exhuasted from the performance conversations that go nowhere – it’s pointless. It’s late and you’re working again. The questions come … Why am I still doing this? Why can’t they just get it? Wouldn’t it just, be easier to do it all myself? And now… someone’s just resigned.
You know what it feels like when a team clicks, you’ve done it before. You’ve tried everything – comms, clarity, structure, pep talks. Nothing is working.
So now the question – Is it them? Or is it me?
Real feedback from clients
- I can’t get emotional in front of my team, I have to seem in control – CFO
- I lose trust with the Board because of all the politics at Exec level. It creates so much doubt – CISO
- Win or lose I need them to hard the conversations, it’s the only way to built trust. I’m not doing it for them – CPO
- I don’t trust my team – CCO
- I don’t think vulnerability is important … it doesn’t come naturally and I can build trust with my team without it – CTO
- I’m going to try and let me team figure it out without me – SVP
12 Weeks to Shift the Doubt
Most leaders wait until something snaps. Don’t.
In 12 one-to-one sessions, we’ll find the trust gap – in you, your team, or the structure and fix it before it breaks what’s working.
I’ve worked with hundreds of leaders. When trust clicks, everything moves faster: mindset, confidence, delivery. The weight lifts.
You’ll work with me directly, 1:1. Every session ends with an action. Because trust is a deliberate leadership act.
We’ll work through my framework
➟ Identify what’s really getting in the way
➟ Diagnose the beliefs, behaviours or decisions behind it
➟ Plan what needs to change
➟ Act with me helping keep you accountable
Trust is the foundation, you can ignore it or I can help you build it for greater impact.
Team Shifts in Days, Not Months – workshops and talks
As leaders you have a disappropriate impact on your teams lives and when trust cracks between leaders, the whole team feels it – fast.
Usually before you’ve even realised there’s a problem and ignoring it never works. It will explode at the worst possible moment.
You know the signs:
– Side conversations in corridors
– Decisions stuck in power games
– A team that should be united … and you become the go-between
This is where we do that. Fasr. Think group coaching meets workshop. These workshops get teams in sync honest, connected, moving.
I build workshops as accelerated solutions. We don’t focus on theory. We get to the truth, rebuild trust, and get people acting like a team again.
Typical outcomes:
➟ Honest conversations in hours, not months
➟ Shared focus and accountability
➟ A team that trusts each other
Leadership isn’t a solo act. And trust is what gets you building, solving, and delivering together.
Hello, I’m Mira Magecha
I’ve lead teams you’re losing sleep over. From scrappy start-ups to publicly listed giants. I’m an ex Chief People Officer and I’ve sat where you sit. I come with with the scars.
I work with leaders navigating change, tough decisions and teams that look fantastic on paper but aren’t delivering. These frameworks aren’t theory – they are shaped by neuroscience, curisoity and real life experiences in leadership. Proven through both failure and impact.
I ask the questions no one else will, the ones your internal teams won’t. I’m honest, impactfuI and make trust visible, measurable and actionable.
I help leaders like you build the kind of trust that speeds things up, sharpens performance, and actually gets things moving.
I love the work I do because when you unlock trust, everything shifts.
Speed. Courage. Culture. Performance.
