About Tina

Tina Stowell was a working-class girl who left school at sixteen, determined to make her way as a secretary. She went on to become a Cabinet Minister and Leader of the House of Lords.

The real story isn’t where she began, but why she succeeded and how far it’s taken her.

In short, at every stage of her career, she’s fixed tough problems and got things done by understanding people.

Respecting their perspectives. Recognising their anxieties. Finding common ground.

  • From Downing Street to the BBC
  • To leading major institutions under pressure and scrutiny
  • From passing Equal Marriage into law
By taking people seriously, she’s bridged divides, earnt their trust, built coalitions and got results that defied expectations.
