Lunch and Learn: Advice from a business coach

Hi I am Becky and I am not your typical science geekl! Whilst doing my PhD, I realised being a scientist wasn’t for me. I naturally gravitated towards sales and organisation. Taking every opportunity to run fundraisers and events. Remaining disciplined, I finished my PhD before landing a technical support role for a science sales company. I went on to become a sales rep in scientific instruments for VWR. Soon, I was managing a team whilst gaining experience in business development. I completed my MBA then became VP of a business unit of over 800 staff. I then became MD of a science organisation but still wasn’t settled. I knew I was an entrepreneur. I had the experience and was ready to go it alone. 20 years on, I use my experience to support and develop other businesses. Not your stereotypical business coach. I’m a woman who has proven business acumen, I dislike hard sales, am personable and genuinely want you to succeed.
