Change is constant - we all know that. But leading people through change? In my experience, this is where many fall short!
Is this something you’d like support with❓ Here are my 2 biggest tips…

When I talk strategy with new clients, I often get a nod and a half-hearted, “yes, we’ve got one somewhere…”. 🙄
The truth is, many businesses have a strategy – but it’s sitting in a drawer gathering dust. Or it’s so vague no one knows how to act on it! 🤦♀️ About 6-years ago, a London-based creative agency brought me in to help “sharpen their focus”. They were doing well, but plateauing, left wanting more! Do you run a business❓ Are you a leader or a manager❓ Do you want to grow your revenue❓
Start with your people! It sounds simple, and for some, perhaps backwards, but I believe it’s one of the best places to start! 👏 Here’s an example… If there’s one thing I see too often in struggling businesses, it’s over-complication. Leaders sometimes think that the more moving parts they have, the more sophisticated their operation seems. In my experience, it often just creates confusion and stalls growth, especially when there are much simpler ways! 🤷🏼♀️
Take Ellie, the founder of a growing marketing agency in Manchester. When she came to me, she had seven service packages, four different pricing tiers, and a team unclear on which client wanted what. We both agreed it was chaos! 😅 Together, we got stuck in and stripped it all right back. We narrowed her offering to three core services, created a simple onboarding process, and focused her team’s energy on execution rather than endless internal meetings. 🙌 Let’s be honest - running a business isn’t for the faint-hearted. Whether you're growing fast or just trying to keep your head above water, the demands are constant!
Staff, strategy, customers, cashflow… There’s always something pulling your attention. That’s where a Business, Leadership, and Management Coach (like me 👋) can make all the difference! Do not fear, this isn’t about someone swanning in with a clipboard and telling you how to run your business! Far from it, in fact. A good coach works WITH you, not above you. I am there to help you step back, see the bigger picture, and move forward with clarity and confidence. So, how exactly can a coach like me help your business grow and thrive❓ What value can I add to your organisation as your business or leadership and management coach?8/12/2025 Here is a little insight into how I work, who I am, and what I can do to help you…
👍 I am straight talking, and will always share with honesty and empathy what I see and how I think we can improve your business. 👍 As an outsider, I can be objective, zooming out to show you the bigger picture. 👍 I am always willing to go where we need to go to get you where you want to be… If that means exploring aspects of your life outside of business, then I’m here for that. As an entrepreneur, leader, and business owner, I have always found it essential to have a team of loved-ones and professionals around me who offer support, encouragement, and advice whenever I need it.
On my Success Squad, I have: How could coaching make a difference to your life as a business owner, leader, or manager?10/11/2025 The world of ‘Coaching and Mentoring’ can feel like a minefield - especially if it’s something you haven’t looked into before!
So, in some of my calls this week, I decided to ask a few of my clients to describe the difference coaching with me has made to them in one word or phrase. Here’s what they came up with: Navigating Success... The Importance of Cashflow Management for Businesses & Organisations20/10/2025 Every part of me believes that the heartbeat of success for any business or organisation is rooted in understanding and managing cashflow!
Regularly assessing cashflow and budgeting based on careful forecasting isn't just good practice, it's the lifeline that sustains and propels businesses forward. Cashflow isn't just about tracking money in and out - it's about foreseeing the tides and currents that affect financial stability. It empowers businesses and organisations to anticipate challenges, seize opportunities, and make informed decisions.. Last week, I met a wonderful client of mine for a coffee! We were chatting about lots of things, but one topic in particular got me thinking… 🤔
We spoke about the ‘What3Words’ global initiative, and I started to wonder, what 3 words could I offer to this client today to help them improve their business? 👏 For this particular client, I decided to choose… |
