All businesses, big and small, need help and support to be successful and meet the strategic aims of all its stakeholders, whatever they may be. A businesses during start-up phase needs different help and support to an established business. Changing an established business and ensuring the change sticks is different to the day to day running the business. Help and support can take many forms from mentors and coaches to consultants and accountants. However to be effective, it has to be provided by the right person, with the right skill set and experience, to address the problem at hand.

I've worked with a number of teams helping them develop plans for strategic investments: reviewing and challenging plans, costs to implement and benefits arising.

Helping others flourish in their businesses and careers and realise their potential has been an ongoing source of fulfilment and pleasure for me over a number of years.
