How I Work

I work alongside owner-managers, investors and management teams to make the most of a business. I provide direct, objective and honest feedback on a business, based on many years of business management experience. I give owners and managers confidence about what they should do next, why, and also how they should go about doing it. To a large extent I do this by applying my 5Secrets described elsewhere on this site.

I make sure that everyone is very clear about the business’s strategy, that it makes sense, and that it can be implemented with acceptable levels of risk. I then very often help with the implementation and can be as involved as you want me to be. I often work in what might look like a non-executive director capacity, but I am considerably more involved and informed than that might suggest.

To make this as unambiguous as possible I have two levels of engagement with a client. An initial review stage that allows us to get to know each other, when I carry out a Structured Business Review, following by an ongoing period of Active Mentoring as the plan is implemented.

1.      Structured Business Reviews

A Structured Business Review will help you to see your business a little differently. You’ll better understand the good and the bad and what to do about it and you’ll gain confidence about exactly what the next stage of your business’ development should be. This provides a strong foundation for the future development of the business.

2.      Active Mentoring

Running a business can be quite a lonely occupation and many successful business owners have a mentor or a guide. I have been doing this very successfully now for many years, often working alongside the owners of businesses as they have grown and become more successful. I will always encourage you to do the right thing for the business, no matter how difficult that is.

I can help you to be much more confident about what to do with your business. A lack of confidence is what often stops people from moving forward with conviction, or at all.  I can help you to become more confident about business management. I can help you to realise your business potential, in both meanings of the word.
