Work With Me
You Don't Need To Know Exactly What You Need.
You might have a specific challenge to solve, know something in the business needs to change, or simply feel that too much still depends on you.
Maybe you need to develop the leaders around you, strengthen your team, rethink who owns what or bring in someone new.
You don’t need to have the answer before we talk.
Tell me what’s happening, where you want to get to and what’s getting in the way. I’ll help you work out what needs to change and the best way to make it happen.
More Capacity. More Growth. More Freedom.

Founder & CEO, Capacity to Grow

Where Can I Help?
Bring me the problem. We’ll work out the solution.
Sometimes you know exactly what needs fixing. Sometimes you just know things could be working better. Either way, we’ll start by working out what’s really going on.
Step back from the day-to-day
Too many decisions, problems and responsibilities still come back to you.
Develop the leaders around you
You’ve got good people with the potential to take on more, but they need support, confidence or clarity to step up.
Get more from the team you already have
You want greater ownership, accountability and better ways of working together.
Build the right leadership structure
The business has grown, but the roles, responsibilities and management structure haven’t necessarily grown with it.
Solve a people or performance challenge
Something isn’t working as well as it should and you need an experienced outside perspective to understand why.
Work out whether you really need to recruit
You know you need more capacity, but the answer might be another person, a different structure, better delegation or a smarter way of working.
Whatever you bring me, we start in the same place, understanding what’s really going on and what you want to be different.
Working Together
Business Diagnostic & 30-Day Action Plan
90 minutes. Your Business. Clarity on what problem to solve and how.
£750 +VAT for a 1:1 90 minute session with follow up support.
Sometimes you don’t need a full review of your business. You just need an experienced pair of eyes who can see what you can't when you are in the thick of it.
Bring me the problem you're struggling with or simply the feeling that something isn't working as well as it should.
It could be a people or leadership challenge, someone in the team who needs help to step up, a difficult decision, a recruitment question, a sales or performance issue, a growth opportunity you’re not sure how to approach or several things happening at once and you don’t know what to tackle first.
We'll spend 90 minutes getting underneath what's really happening. I'll ask the questions others might not, challenge some of your assumptions and help separate the symptoms from the real issue.
Then I'll tell you what I think.
What's really going on. What matters most. What needs to change. And where I think you should start.
After our session, I’ll turn that into a clear 30-Day Action Plan. You’ll also have a follow-up call and access to me on WhatsApp for 30 days while you put it into action.
You don't need to know exactly what the problem is before we talk. That's my role to help you figure out.
What's Included
- 90-minute 1:1
- Diagnostic and Recommendations
- 30-Day Action Plan
- Follow-up Call

Thinking About Recruiting?
Recruit to Grow™
Save time. Make a better-informed hiring decision. And potentially save thousands in recruitment fees.
Fixed-fee recruitment from £3,500 +VAT. No percentage of salary. No placement commission.
If you’re thinking about recruiting, I don’t start with the vacancy. I start with what the business needs.
What are you trying to achieve? Where do you need more capacity? What needs to come off your plate? Do you need to strengthen your leadership team? And who does the business actually need next?
Sometimes that confirms the role you already had in mind.
Sometimes we discover you need something different.
Because a great candidate in the wrong role is still the wrong hire.
Recruit to Grow™ combines my experience of building and leading teams with a complete recruitment process from defining the role and finding the right candidates through to helping you make the appointment.
What Could You Save?
£75,000 Leadership Hire
Traditional agency at 20% = £15,000 + VAT
Recruit to Grow™ = £5,000 + VAT
£10,000 SAVED.
Fixed fees from £3,500 + VAT.
Want Ongoing Support?
Business Performance Partnership
Experienced support alongside you as you build a stronger leadership team, strengthen the people around you and step back from the day-to-day.
From £1,500 +VAT per month
The level of support depends on what you and the business need. Minimum 3 months.
This is for business owners who know things need to change and want someone experienced alongside them to help make those changes happen.
I become your sounding board and an trusted partner who you can talk decisions through with, who will challenge your thinking, spot what you might be missing and help you deal with the difficult things that come with leading a growing business.
For some, that means a regular strategic session and having me there to lean on between times.
For others, I’m more involved, working with you and your team to develop your leaders, strengthen ownership and accountability, improve the way the team works together, and make the changes that allow you to step back.
We agree what we’re trying to achieve at the outset and shape my involvement around that.
The goal isn’t for you to become dependent on me. It’s to build the leadership and team around you so that, over time, the business depends less on you.
What Can Be Included
- Regular strategic calls
- Leadership and management development
- Decision-making and problem solving
- Management and meeting rhythms
- Strategic advice and decision support
- Coaching and mentoring
- Performance management
- Team structure and role design
- Recruitment support where required
- Strategic planning and strategy days
- Ongoing sounding-board support
Not Sure Where to Start?
You don’t need to know exactly what you need before we talk.
You might have one specific problem, several things happening at once, or simply know that something in the business needs to change.
Tell me what’s going on. I’ll ask some key questions, we'll talk about what you are trying to achieve and drawing on my 25 years of experience working with growing businesses, I will give you my perspective on what's really happening in your business.
Then I’ll tell you where I think you should start.
