Rowan Heydon-White

Associate

“I am passionate about answering the question: How can we cultivate our teams so that they add up to more than the sum of their parts?” 

Rowan is one of Performance Frontiers’ creative dynamos – a talented learning designer and expert  facilitator with a deep understanding of the power of the Performing Arts. This means she is a true advocate for the integration of arts-based practices with business methodologies and psychology, to push the envelope around what’s possible in leadership and organisational development.  

Rowan’s work in developing elite teams has cultivated her interest in organisational and cultural dynamics and how they can be optimised for inspiring results. She recognises the remarkable potential for creativity-based learning and has seen firsthand how it can be a powerful dialectic tool which shifts, holistically, the way people think – bringing this approach to her work every day.  

Across our client base, she is popular and highly valued for her ability to bring learning to life and help it stick. She holds degrees in Communication, Theatre and Educational Research, but her practical knowledge come from nearly two decades of experience with a range of major creative international organisations. 

When she isn’t staging her next idea, she likes to take her very active lifestyle into green spaces, spending time mountain climbing, camping, swimming and everything in between.
