CREATING SPACE FOR LEADERS

& TEAMS TO FLOURISH.

I’m Max Price (they/them), a queer and neurodivergent leader and community builder dedicated to fostering inclusive environments for everyone.

In 2011, I co-founded Proud2Be, a grassroots, queer-led non-profit with my twin sister, Maya. Together, we've secured over £1 million in grant funding, developing impactful groups, events, and support services that have positively affected thousands.

With extensive experience in LGBTQIA+ inclusivity, I specialise in helping organisations of all kinds—whether non-profits, social enterprises, or mainstream businesses—create inclusive and supportive workplaces. As a leadership mentor and consultant, I equip leaders and teams with practical tools and strategies to foster collaboration, resilience, and engagement.

My commitment is to help every individual feel seen, respected, and valued while ensuring that organisations prioritise well-being and thrive in today’s diverse landscape.

I look forward to collaborating with you to cultivate thriving teams and inclusive workplaces!

FACING THESE CHALLENGES?

Leadership Burnout & Emotional Overload
Leading can feel overwhelming, especially for those who are sensitive, empathetic, neurodivergent, or queer. The emotional demands can drain energy, focus, and resilience. Many leaders face imposter syndrome, struggling with self-doubt despite their capabilities.

High Turnover Rates
High staff turnover and low morale often stem from unclear communication, lack of cohesion, or unresolved team dynamics, creating instability in your organisation.

Difficulty Aligning Mission with Strategy
For social enterprises and non-profits, ensuring your mission and values are consistently reflected in your operations and strategy can be challenging, leading to confusion and lost momentum.

Resistance to Change
Introducing change can trigger resistance, making it difficult to foster acceptance and navigate transitions smoothly.

Balancing Firmness & Fairness
Striking the right balance between being firm and fair requires maintaining boundaries while fostering trust and respect within your team.

If you answered yes to one or more (or even all) of these concerns, know that you are not alone in your experiences, and I am here to help you effectively navigate and overcome these obstacles.
