About Onward Consultants

A professional learning and development organisation with expertise and experience in leadership, governance, curriculum and management across education and health sectors. Years of experience in the education sector has provided a platform for the Director of Onward Consultants, Frances van Dillen, to deliver tailored, bespoke learning for change to occur and be sustained.
​
A focus on strategy and improvement ensures change is both personal and professional. Reflective practice guarantees the impact of change is appropriate for the context, and meets requirements for sustainability. Change is a process of support and pressure and Onward Consultants provide both. Shaping changes and the change process requires truthfulness and honesty. Frances is skilled at engaging with others in a truthful yet empowering way, leading a way forward through the change process.
