Jo Fuller is an award-winning leadership coach and keynote speaker helping organisations rethink leadership through the lens of women's health, challenging outdated thinking on menopause and menstruation in the workplace.
An ICF-accredited coach, Jo founded The Merry Menopause® community and created Cyclical Leadership®, a development programme exploring how hormonal health shapes confidence, communication, and decision-making. She regularly appears on TV, radio, and in print, and hosted The Merry Menopause Bookclub Podcast, a finalist at the British Podcast Awards.
Rather than treating menopause and menstruation as wellbeing issues alone, Jo reframes them as leadership and business challenges, helping organisations understand what they reveal about culture, communication, and retention. Her sessions combine evidence, lived experience, and practical leadership strategies, helping businesses move beyond awareness towards meaningful, lasting cultural change across the organisation.
Alongside her keynote speaking and panel appearances, Jo advises organisations on women's health strategy, leadership development and workplace culture. Audiences leave her sessions with practical tools to support women's hormonal health at every career stage, helping build workplaces where experienced women stay, perform, and progress rather than leave.
For organisations ready to move beyond awareness, Jo offers a practical, evidence-led route to a genuinely inclusive, higher-performing workplace.
Topics, sessions and talks
Jo Fuller explores what changes when organisations design work with women in mind, from flexible policies to leadership norms built around hormonal health. Drawing on her Cyclical Leadership® framework, Jo shows how confidence, communication and decision-making shift across a woman's career, and what employers can do differently. The session reframes inclusion, treating workplace culture and women's health as connected leadership issues rather than separate wellbeing concerns, leaving audiences with practical starting points for change they can act on immediately.
Jo Fuller argues that how organisations handle menopause reveals deeper truths about their leadership culture, from how conversations about health are handled to whether experienced women are retained or quietly lost. Drawing on her work as an ICF-accredited coach and founder of The Merry Menopause®, Jo connects menopause support directly to leadership capability, showing where communication breaks down and talent walks away. The session leaves leaders rethinking retention, communication and culture as one connected challenge rather than isolated HR concerns.
Jo Fuller equips leaders and line managers with the confidence to support colleagues through menopause, covering the physical and psychological changes involved and the conversations managers often avoid, particularly when symptoms affect performance, confidence or attendance. Jo shares practical adjustments, from flexible scheduling to simple environmental changes, giving managers the language and confidence to have supportive conversations and make decisions that help experienced women stay, perform and progress rather than leave.
Jo Fuller challenges the common assumption that menopause begins when periods stop, showing how the transition can affect confidence, communication, energy and performance years before a diagnosis is made. Drawing on evidence and her experience as a menopause educator, Jo helps employees and leaders recognise these earlier signs and their impact in the workplace. The session builds the awareness and practical strategies needed to create a culture where women feel supported, equipping teams to talk about menopause with confidence.
Jo Fuller reframes the menstrual cycle as a leadership and wellbeing tool rather than simply a reproductive process, introducing menstrual cycle awareness as a practical way to understand shifting patterns in energy, focus, confidence, creativity and communication. Ideal for emerging leaders and women's development programmes, Jo shows how working with biology rather than against it improves performance and wellbeing at work, laying foundations for understanding the hormonal changes of perimenopause and menopause that women can draw on throughout their careers.
