Catherine Bell MAPP, FCPHR, PCC
Hi, I’m Catherine (she/her), Director of Positive People & Culture. Shortly after starting my business career, I realised that people were my real passion in business. I gained my first international HR role in 2002, and I haven't looked back. For the past 15 years, I’ve consulted, coached, and spoken across Australia and internationally through Bell Training Group, driving leadership development and culture change in all kinds of organisations.
​​
I believe HR are the quiet heroes of business success. Yet too often, they’re left out of leadership development. With the right support, HR professionals can lead strategically, build supportive workplaces, and thrive in their own lives, too. That’s why I launched Positive People & Culture - tailored, strategic development for HR leaders and teams.
​
I hold a Master’s in Applied Positive Psychology (Wellbeing Science), a Fellowship and Certification with the Australian HR Institute, multiple coaching and training qualifications, and a Bachelor of Business. I’ve led large teams myself, trained over 20,000 people and taught coaching and mentoring worldwide. Most importantly, I’m on a mission to make workplaces that lift people up - so life outside work is better too. Come join me. I can't wait to help you live your best HR life!​
