About Victoria & Culture Cuppa
Victoria Rennoldson is global leadership specialist, Cultural Intelligence and Strategic Communication expert, bestselling author, keynote speaker, coach, facilitator and podcast host.
Victoria supports ambitious current and future leaders, international teams and global organisations to increase influence, impact and visibility. She helps people communicate with greater clarity, confidence and cultural intelligence, especially when working across different cultures, languages and expectations.
Before founding Culture Cuppa, Victoria worked in international teams herself. She saw how easily talented, capable people could become less visible in global environments because of cultural communication barriers; they were unsure how to speak up, adapt their message or build influence across cultures and senior levels of the organisation.
That means organisations can lose valuable insight, and professionals stay smaller than they need to be. Culture Cuppa was born to change that.
Through strategic communication coaching, cultural intelligence training and global leadership development, Victoria helps leaders and teams build trust, increase visibility and communicate with greater impact across borders.
Her work is practical, thoughtful and deeply human. It gives professionals the tools, confidence, cultural intelligence and communication skills to contribute more fully, lead more effectively and be heard in the moments that matter.
Shaped by global experience
Victoria’s work is shaped by real experience of international business, global teams and cross-cultural communication.
Her early career in marketing involved working with colleagues, clients and partners across Europe, North America and Asia. She experienced many of the same leadership, communication and cultural challenges her clients face today: different expectations, working styles, ways of building trust, and different ideas about what confident communication looks like.
Victoria has now supported clients from more than 50 countries, and helped them strengthen their communication, increase their visibility and lead with more confidence in global environments.
As a best-selling author, keynote speaker and podcast host, she also brings a wider voice to the conversation around global leadership, communication and cultural intelligence.
Our Commitment
Our mission is to help global leaders and teams communicate with more clarity, confidence and cultural intelligence, so they can increase their influence, visibility and impact across cultures.
For global leaders, this becomes even more important. The way they communicate affects how they are understood, how their ideas land, how their teams collaborate and how confidently they can step into bigger opportunities.
Through Culture Cuppa, Victoria works with ambitious professionals, senior leaders and international organisations.
Her clients span industries including finance, luxury, construction, retail, technology, consulting, and energy. They range from middle management to C-suite leaders, but they are united by something important: they want to contribute fully, grow globally and lead with greater impact.
For individual leaders, this work often supports career progression, leadership presence and the confidence to be heard at a more senior level.
For organisations, it helps teams communicate more effectively across borders, reduce cultural friction and build stronger global collaboration.
Leadership development that feels personal
Victoria works with intelligent, ambitious people who care about their teams, their careers and the impact they make.
Her approach isn’t about teaching people to become louder, more polished or less themselves. It’s about helping them recognise their strengths, communicate their value and adapt across cultures without losing what makes them effective.
Clients can expect practical expertise, honest encouragement and someone who is genuinely invested in seeing them succeed, not only during the work, but long after it ends.
What clients say
What clients think and say is very important to us and we love to share their feedback, results and the value our programmes bring to them, their team and organisation.
“I’ve built my confidence internally so that it comes across externally, and can articulate my value with greater impact.
Victoria has a great ability to turn messages that make sense to me into something high-impact and persuasive to others, while still making sure they feel authentic and that I believe in what I’m saying.”

Why did we call our business Culture Cuppa?
A cuppa is a British word for a cup of tea, and I believe how we say and do things is driven by our cultural contexts. I want people to really understand each other well, communicate at a more nuanced level, and interact in culturally diverse situations. I want to support global leaders and managers to communicate confidently, and develop great rapport with their global teams and customers. A cuppa is a great way to connect and build conversations. And I love a cuppa of course!

Finding Your Voice with Gill McKay
Your ability to communicate confidently, influence others and share your perspective has never been more important, yet finding your voice is far more than about being a confident public speaker.
AI: from algorithmic drift to human agency
Many of you I am sure are being encouraged to use AI more. Yet there is a deeper question sitting underneath the flurry of activity and hype: are we simply outsourcing the very human skills that make us so valuable?
Stay Human as a Leader when under Pressure
Leadership pressure has a way of revealing us, not always in the polished, thoughtful, values-led way we might hope. In this conversation, we explore a much more human definition of courage at work.
