The way we work with you:

* Results focused needs analysis *

It is important that our clients can measure their return on investment. We help with this by ensuring we fully understand your needs and the changes you want to see and demonstrate the tangible ways by which this will be achieved.

* Creative design and collaboration *

Powerful imagery, metaphor, and experiential learning are just some of the methods which help the brain to learn and recall more effectively than traditional ‘chalk and talk’ approaches. We take pride in designing solutions which are memorable and relevant. We love working with our clients to give them a real sense of contribution to the overall themes and messages that tie our solutions to wider business concerns.

* Engaging delivery and personal impact *

Delivery embraces accepted learning methodology. We ensure all parties are included and valued and that personal objectives are addressed as far as possible.

Workshops are a full body experience engaging all of the senses (and not just because of the great lunches). We bring passion and energy to work to ignite the enthusiasm of our delegates. And we make it fun.

* Robust processes and evaluation *

A lot of hard work goes on in the background to ensure that our customers experience is as seamless, positive and fulfilling as possible. We provide clear pricing, processes, plans and reports that give our customers a transparent and easy to understand view of progress so they know what their money is buying. Quality is important. We will qualify and quantify our contribution for our customers and demonstrate clear links back to your ROI measures.

What is all this ‘we’ business?

It’s me… with a little help from my friends.

Like many people, I dreamed of running my own business one day. It just so happened that that particular day was thrust upon me through circumstances out of my control when I was made redundant in 2010. An opportunity presented itself in the aftermath of this bizarrely wonderful occasion (I was married the day before) and surfing the high spirits of my honeymoon I chose to grasp it and see where it took me.

Since then I’ve been lucky enough to continue to do many of the things that I loved doing during my previous twelve years in business management and people development; sharing, empowering, creating, developing and meeting lots of amazing people who inspire me to do more and more every day.

Whilst I choose to remain effectively self-employed, I collaborate, associate and partner with other people and businesses from across a range of industries and disciplines drawing on specific expertise and resources. Staying true to my values means caring about my colleagues and clients alike – if I feel I can’t serve your needs, I usually know someone who can and I’ll tell you just that. Give me a call; it could change lives!
