I’m an entrepreneur, business leader, speaker and trainer whose experience spans the United Kingdom and Africa. My entrepreneurial journey has involved building and developing businesses across consulting, tendering and procurement, business development, health and social care, recruitment, training and professional services.
From starting to scaling
Building beyond the founder
Over the years, I’ve developed a consulting operation into a multimillion-pound business, while building teams and supporting organisations across the UK. The journey brought success, but also the practical challenges that accompany growth.
- Finding the right people
- Developing managers
- Maintaining standards
- Managing performance
- Creating accountability
- Winning new business
- Managing cash flow
- Gradually moving an organisation away from depending entirely on its founder.
These experiences have shaped my approach to entrepreneurship. A business is not truly being built if everything still depends on the person who started it. Sustainable organisations require people, processes, leadership and systems.
