Business Coaching
I have previously owned and run an SME for over ten years, with two company acquisitions and a company sale.
Prior to that I spent just under ten years on a Fast Track Management Development programme with a FTSE 100 plc, culminating in Senior Management positions.
Since 2009 I have been working as a Business Coach with organisations as diverse as Multi-national giants, UK based plcs and high growth, Investment Fund-backed SMEs. I am lucky enough to have worked across a huge range of industries such as Finance, Automotive, Legal, Publishing, Aerospace, Pharmaceuticals, Logistics, Music, Digital Marketing, Sales, Gaming and Medical Devices.
Nobody will understand your business better than you, but having a trusted Business Coach to bounce ideas off and to offer guidance and perspective can be invaluable.
Most problems in business can be boiled down to people, strategy or sales. As a Business Coach, I have a strong understanding of psychology and the motivational drivers of Staff and Customers. With a financial background I have a flair for both big picture and detail and am thus comfortable in both the creation and implementation of a strategic plan. And perhaps most of all, having been in your shoes myself, I recognise that sales is the life-blood of any growing SME.
As the Business Owner and Director of your Company, you are in a unique position. You have to juggle a hundred and one different roles, requiring different skills, but all requiring time and energy. You have to understand the risks and threats to your business whilst maintaining a uniformly positive front to Staff and Customers alike. This is incredibly hard to balance. You do not have to do this alone however. Working with a Business Coach allows you to voice your concerns, air your frustrations and give voice to your creative ideas, all without confusing your Staff and worrying your Customers.
