Hi there!
I am Victoria
I help you to confidently lead multicultural teams, overcome barriers to improvement in your school and create a future that your whole community is excited about.
Victoria Hopkin PhD Cand., MA, BA (Hons), FRSA, FCCT, Certified Intercultural Coach
Hi, I’m Victoria, a global peak performance educator with a proven track record in blending research, best practices and leadership understanding into actionable strategies that supercharge success.
As the founder and director of The Cambridge Consultancy Group, a positive leadership hub based in Dubai and operating across the Middle East and Europe, I have trained and transformed leaders and teams from local schools to international school groups. My mantra: understand and appreciate cultures, forge new collaborations, create new outcomes!
Through my coaching, courses and conference keynotes I have worked with thousands of teachers and school leaders across three continents. As an active researcher-educator I am involved at the cutting edge of international school best practice and innovation, with my feet firmly planted in the reality of the challenges that you face.
It is my professional mission to support you, whether as an individual, within a team, or as a leader of others, to help you get the very best from yourself and your colleagues and to leverage the power of your cultural diversity.
Culture is Key
No matter what your context, your school is a melting pot of different cultures, and not just within your student cohort. Each member of your team embodies a unique cognitive, generational, linguistic, socio-economic, academic, lifestyle and dispositional cultural perspective. Every nuance of their journey to this point in time, in your school, in their team, influences how well they work with others. Or… how dysfunctional their team may be.
Our mission at The Cambridge Consultancy Group is to help you fine tune your team to get the very best out of all those wonderful differences, before they get the better of you!

Our Story
Researchers for Life!
At The Cambridge Consultancy Group, we believe in research-informed educational leadership. So our consultants are all active researchers! Whether we are 'sleeves rolled up' practitioner-researchers, or 'let go of the rope, deep-diving' post doctoral academic researchers, we live our mantra with passion and are fully signed up researchers for life. We might not be quite as extreme as Socrates' famous quote, "the unexamined life is not worth living"... but we are close.
Spread across the globe, our consultants bring uniquely defined perspectives to our shared work, each of us contributing to the wealth of knowledge, experience and curiosity that we can bring to the support that we offer you. Our projects have covered learning space design, curriculum design, leadership development programmes, in-class teacher coaching, out-of-class teacher mentoring and coaching, as well as leadership and executive leadership coaching and mentoring in a wide range of contexts and across international educational jurisdictions in China, North America, South East Asia, Australia, the Middle East and Europe.
