As someone who didn't consider themselves a leader before, as my job role is far from a leader role, this changed my way of thinking. Everyone is a leader, they just need to unlock the qualities that enable them to be the best leader.

AT BICYCLE
Mark Pavlika - Chief People and Purpose Officer
We recently had the pleasure of working with Judith Germain from The Maverick Paradox, and I cannot recommend her highly enough.
We brought Jude in to deliver training on neurodiversity in the workplace, particularly to support our line managers in better understanding and empowering our neurodivergent employees. The brief was clear: help us build awareness, spot neurodivergent behaviours and characteristics, and equip our leaders to create an inclusive environment where everyone can thrive and Jude delivered on every front and more.
Her sessions were insightful, thought-provoking, and deeply practical. Judith has a remarkable ability to take complex, often misunderstood topics and communicate them with clarity, empathy, and impact. Our entire management team walked away feeling not only more informed, but more capable and confident in how to support neurodivergent team members.
What stood out most was Jude's engaging and compassionate approach. She brings energy, warmth, and zero judgement into the room. She is a trusted presence who makes people feel safe to ask questions and explore new perspectives.
Her influence hasn’t just ended with the training. We’ve since adopted several of her recommended practices and made meaningful reasonable adjustments to better support our newer neurodivergent employees. Her work has already made a lasting impact.
If you're looking for someone to help your organisation not only understand neurodiversity, but act on it meaningfully then Jude is the person you want in the room.
Jude’s mentoring and coaching support has also helped us to improve the way we collaborate as a team when designing and delivering strategy.
She has shown us how we can hone ways to become more operationally effective and efficient, enabling us to ultimately make a greater impact in the lives of the young people’s we work with in SW London.

COO - Regenerate UKI booked a Strategy Hour with Judith because I wasn't happy with the results of my marketing and sales for my business. In one hour I felt like I got a totally new approach to try out, with plenty of insights and examples.
As a result, I am motivated and inspired to go back and look at my products and services from a completely new angle, and join them up in ways I hadn't previously imagined.

I first met Judith when she was speaking at a leadership event I attended. Her style was refreshing and her thinking resonated with me.
Fast forward a year and she was working with one of our senior leadership teams to surface some tensions and address areas ripe for improvement. She spent time with each team member 1-1 before creating and facilitating 2 days of team development.
Those sessions had energy, connection and honesty. She would step in and help us to reframe issues, think differently and she provided some useful tools to help us elicit fruitful insights.
What I really love about Judith is that she is honest and does not shy away from holding up the mirror when we needed it. She did this with a deftness and compassion that helped us to step into having what felt initially like it was going to be a difficult and rather negative conversation.
It turned out to be neither, which was as much about the attention Jude had put into the design of the sessions as to how she guided the conversations.
The impact was the opening up of genuine honesty across the team which has been built upon since. Jude has a lot of knowledge and experience and plentiful ideas as to how to approach issues and turn them into opportunities.
I have also personally had solid counsel and support from her when I have been faced with some difficult situations. She has integrity and cares and has always been dependable and trustworthy. If you want good results, speak to Judith.
Who we work with
We work with organisations, senior leaders, and business owners who know that surface fixes don’t solve deep challenges.
They come to us when strategy stalls, culture drifts from execution, or growth demands a different kind of leadership.
Our clients are ambitious, self-aware, and ready for more than talk. They want traction – the kind that comes from clarity, influence, and decisive action.
Whether leading a complex transformation, rebuilding trust across teams, or scaling a business for sustainable success, they partner with us to amplify what already works and challenge what doesn’t.
What they gain is more than progress; it’s calibrated motion – leadership that holds under pressure, drives performance, and delivers results that last.
Ready to see what’s possible for your leaders, teams, or business?
When you’re ready to move from insight to impact, we’ll help you design the clarity, capability, and influence to make it happen.
