How I work

Well, what's best for you?

My own style of working has developed through years of my own experiences in business but also from seeing what works well for others. 

While I have a default approach, I can also recognise that I adapt to individuals and what will ultimately bring the best out of them. What may well work out brilliantly for one person or business, might not be the right direction for another. This is where having that initial chat comes in. We navigate your ideas and business goals together.


My 'default' approach

Firstly we will sit down and truly find out more about you, your business and your aspirations. We all have goals, but goals without a plan is just a dream.

As a business mentor, I define my approach to working with clients as one of friendliness, relatability and confidence. My underlying goal is to create a positive and collaborative workspace that encourages success.

A crucial starting point for me is building a trusting relationship and a level of comfort between me and the client. Doing this means that my client can feel confident in sharing their emotions and concerns and open up communication in order to drive progress.

I am motivated by my client’s progress, in the same way a coach is motivated by the success of their students. Seeing my clients succeed is what drives me to help them set goals, focus, and be a sounding board for ideas and strategies. I really do become the business's biggest cheerleader...I always wanted to be a cheerleader, now I get to be, without the pom-poms.

I provide a hands-on approach when working with clients. This entails tailored activities and exercises to address the unique needs of each individual client. With this approach, I bring my professionalism and insight in mastering the most effective processes and strategies.

I will be with my clients every step of the way, from strategising to evaluating outcomes and providing feedback and suggestions on areas for improvement as well as suggestions for further development. All this is taken in a positive, collaborative and encouraging approach.

I believe my passionate and friendly attitude has played a key role in the success of the clients I have worked with in the past. It is not just the technical skills, knowledge and experience which are important but also having the ability to relate to people and to motivate and support them.

The clients I have mentored in the past have grown in confidence, not only in their business but in themselves by overcoming challenges and reaching their desired goals as a result of my approach as a friendly and highly motivated business mentor.

Ultimately, I believe in my clients finding success, but also take pride in having been an active part of the journey. I will be your biggest cheerleader-until you become your own, this is my forte. I look forward to standing on the lines cheering you on!

What to expect before our first meeting

I absolutely understand it can be daunting to take the first step. 

Before your first appointment with me as your mentor, there will be a set of questions to prepare. It is important to be open and honest in your answers, there is no judgement here. 

• What is the nature of your business?

• Do you have a plan to achieve your business objectives?

• What issue do you currently face and how do you plan to address it?

• Who are the key participants in your business?

• What are your competitive advantages?

• What is your greatest challenge at the moment?

These questions and answers will give us a clear picture of your current situation, allowing us to put together a personalised plan to help you reach your goals.
