Amanda Yuill - Chief Resonator
My career has encompassed coaching, leadership, science (as an explosives chemist) and music (trombone and sousaphone are my weapons of choice!), and I’ve lived and worked across Australia, Asia and North America. These experiences have bred an intense curiosity that shows up in everything I do. After almost two decades working in large, global organisations, I understand the complexities of these systems and what it takes to effect meaningful change at scale.
Creativity, courage, love, and happiness are some of my most prominent values. That means I don’t shy away from asking tough questions or holding up the mirror to facilitate self awareness and growth - but it’s always done with unconditional positive regard.
Resonance is a concept that has surfaced repeatedly in my life and career - very obviously in music, but also in the theory of resonant leadership presented by Boyatzis et al and Ginny Whitelaw’s work on the role of resonance in creating change. Resonance amplifies our energy and efforts in alignment with the things that are most important to us, and is a powerful force for positive change. My work aims to increase resonance in humans and systems.
I believe wellbeing is the foundational leadership skill - it doesn’t need to be perfect, but it’s the single biggest lever we have to pull to make everything else easier. So you can expect me to ask how you’re taking care of yourself, early and often!
My coaching qualifications include:
Professional Certified Coach (PCC) with the International Coaching Federation (ICF)
National Board Certified Health and Wellness Coach (NBC-HWC)
Certified Positive Psychology Coach (CPPC)
Individual Team Coach (EMCC)
I am a certified mindfulness instructor (Unified Mindfulness) and have trained in Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) and Lifestyle Medicine, and am certified to deliver the Leadership Circle 360 Assessment (TLC360) and the Hermann Brain Dominance Instrument (HBDI).
Beyond the certifications, I have thousands of hours of coaching, facilitation and program design experience that has fueled my passion for building resonant leaders who bring out the best in their teams.
If you’re ready to create more resonance in your life or your team, I’m here to help.
Hi, I’m Amanda and my purpose is to up the vibe of humanity.
Leaders in all settings have an enormous impact on the people around them, and are uniquely positioned to empower people to be at their best, or to bring out the worst in them.
I help leaders be at their best, so they can empower others to do the same.
