Lorraine Rosser
Projects Officer

“PEP is  a huge part of my life. I use the PEP principles daily and it has helped me organise my busy life. Simple but effective. It is truly a great concept.”

I’ve been with PEPworldwide since 2004 and I still enjoy coming to work each day and watching other people realize the value of PEP.
It is one of the few methodologies that I am able to implement both at work and at home on a daily basis.

My background as Workshop Coordinator for a writing methodology company has structured my thinking, and improved both my people and written communications skills. My studies into Personal and Organizational Learning help me understand how and why people think and act.

Having joined PEPworldwide in February 2012, I bring to my role as Client Services Manager several years’ experience from within learning and development, training, organisational development and HR consultancy organisations.  Whilst working for Right Management in the UK as a project administrator in 2002, I developed a passion for organisational psychology and a keen interest around enabling people to perform at their best. 

The PEP principles and methodology fit closely with my personal work ethic and I am excited to be a part of the positive impact PEP brings to individuals and organisations.  Particularly I believe what differentiates PEP is that it is sustainable change that can transform not only people’s working lives but also their private lives.
