Céad Míle Fáilte, Welcome
I’m Lynda Morrissey, a senior recruitment management consultant and career change consultant with a 15+ year career background serving in some of the worlds leading human rights, humanitarian, environmental protection, and United Nations launched organisations.
My Story (the shortened version)
My career began as a recruitment consultant in the corporate sector where I worked for 5 years as an IT recruitment consultant.
During a trip to Peru, I witnessed the stark social inequalities present in our world, and I became determined to transition my career to be in more direct service to the solutions.
Since then I have been privileged to serve as a recruitment specialist in some of the worlds well known NGO’s including Save the Children UK, Concern Worldwide, St Mungo’s, World Animal Protection, and the United Nations launched Global Alliance for Improved Nutrition.
Over the last decade I have also been coaching professionals worldwide, just like you, to transition your career, empower your career change strategy, improve your CV/cover letter writing skills, and master your interview preparation.
Senior HR Recruitment Management Consultancy
As an independent talent consultant in the not-for-profit sector, I specialise in designing and leading innovative strategic HR resourcing transformation projects for national and international NGO’s in these areas:
✓ Talent Branding + EVP Definition.
✓ Recruitment Social Media Marketing Strategy.
✓ Cost-Effective Direct Sourcing Talent Acquisition Strategy.
✓ Recruitment Process Diagnostic Review and Streamlining.
✓ Diversity, Equity and Inclusion Recruitment Strategy.
✓ Advanced Interview Skills Training for Hiring Managers.
✓ Internal Recruitment Function Set-Up and Development.
Career Change Consultancy
A qualified professional Executive Coach, I also help executives, managers, and professionals to navigate the most common stages of a values-driven career transition.
Making a job/career move can be an uncertain and rewarding journey. I understand – I’ve successfully pivoted my career 3 times.
Career change consultancy with me offers you the alignment, strategies, structure, actions and accountability to support you to gain more clarity and confidence in your career change journey.
For individuals looking to make a job transition I also offer interview preparation coaching, CV review, and mock interview practicing.
High Performance + Holistic Wellbeing Cultivation
In 2008, I experienced a neck whiplash injury, and after many months of unsuccessful physiotherapy I was told I may never be able to work over a desk again.
This experience introduced me to the world of integrative medicine, which not only helped to heal my physical injury, but also helped me to embrace a more conscious mind, body and soul healing and empowerment journey.
Since then, I’ve learned that we all carry trauma, and when this is unattended to it can bind our life energy, and affect how we relate to ourselves, each other, and to the Divine.
Over the last 12 years I have been grateful to study with some of the world’s well-known mind-body health experts and high performance coaches.
I also went on to qualify as an executive coach, advanced stott pilates instructor, fitness trainer, and natural energy healing facilitator. I continue to complete professional development in areas such as mindfulness somatics, the neuroscience of human behaviour, and jungian studies to truly offer executive and career professional clients an holistic approach to cultivating self empowerment, high performance, and optimal wellbeing as they embrace their career transition journey.
Social Change, Climate Action + Regeneration
In 2020, I founded Croíadh – which is an Irish word that means ‘from the heart.’
In addition to serving organisations, executives and career professionals with high impact consultancy and coaching services, my enterprise aspires to bring together mindful awareness and business in a way that meets real needs in our world.
I’m committed to redistributing some of my profits to my partnering grass-root NGO’s that are working to systemically regenerate their local communities and ecologies.
I’m a contemplative who balances meditation, spiritual/faith practice, and community action. In my spare time I lead small projects in the areas of climate action, culture regeneration, peacemaking, and womens empowerment for social change.
In 2021 a poem I wrote called Caoimhe’s Mindful Pause gratefully catalysed into a 10,000 native tree planting collaboration with Ireland’s largest cultural sporting organisation, the GAA, as part of their wider 100,000 tree planting and growing project.
I work with clients from all walks of life online and in-person. I live in County Mayo, in the heart of Ireland’s beautiful wild landscape.
