Penelope Warne

Penelope has been with the firm since 1993 and she heads the Energy, Projects & Construction practice group, as well as our Aberdeen and Edinburgh offices.

“I manage a team of around 140 people and the firm recently paid for me to attend a course at Harvard called ‘Management for Leading Professional Services Firms’. It’s a seven day course largely aimed at management consultants, accountants and lawyers; most practice group managers here are encouraged to attend.

It was an inspirational course which was both highly stimulating and intellectually challenging. I also found it very practical, as it taught me many valuable things about leadership, strategy, people management and communication skills, all of which are extremely relevant to me in my day-to-day work as a practice group manager. I was able to put into practice much of what I learned as soon as I returned to the office, and it’s definitely made me a more effective leader.”
