After 20 years of climbing the corporate ladder, Kylee was challenged with a lack of flexibility in the traditional operating model. With a commitment to advance as a leader, while taking care of her wellbeing (having had three children in three years), Kylee set out on a journey of discovery, seeking a solution for creating a new paradigm of leadership - to lead with compassion and be a contribution no matter who you are, what you do or where you come from! #NoTitleRequired

Her mission, to disrupt the traditional view of leadership and empower people in being courageous by taking action in DIRECT accordance with their Vision, Values, Mission and Purpose. She says, “We all have the ability to be the architect of own Leadership DNA and play our A-Game”, a methodology Kylee describes as the access to producing miraculous results while fulfilling on one’s vision and purpose despite the difficult, complex and volatile adversities of life.
Kylee is CEO of The Performance Code, Host of the Uncharted Leader Podcast, Founder and Chief Storyteller of Team Women Australia (a not-for-profit devoted to bringing women together to share their personal stories) and has recently become APAC Partner of Design House Collective - a global brand building company bringing together the world’s leading talent in design thinking, business engineering and organisational transformation.
“Kylee is professional, enthusiastic, energetic, entertaining yet functional. A key takeout was the simple tools people can apply to realise their full potential. Months after and people are still talking about what they got and how they’re applying it.

She was always willing to share her expertise and collaborate to get the best outcome for our organisation. The workshop was well-received by our audience; it supported them to reconsider their own leadership and how it impacted their preparedness for decision-making in the face of uncertainty.”
