Before setting up my own coaching and mentoring business near Brighton in 2008 I was involved in running businesses for over 20 years, mainly in the retail and healthcare industries

I worked with large organisations such as Neal’s Yard Remedies and Planet Organic as well as many smaller companies, and was the Executive Director of a charity for several years. I founded and developed a number of social enterprises including a cross-party think tank and in 2016 I helped set up <a href="https://www.leweswomeninbusiness.co.uk/">Lewes Women In Business,</a> a not-for-profit peer to peer business support network. I am currently a member of the Charter for Women In Business.&nbsp;

As part of my commitment to supporting independent business, I now work alongside policy makers from local government helping to shape the services available to small business owners and start-ups in Lewes District. Throughout my career within the business and social enterprise world, from customer-facing roles to senior management, to becoming a CEO and running my own businesses I have gained valuable insight into the issues which business owners face. I write about many of these in my <a href="http://www.businesscoachingsussex.co.uk/blog/">blog</a> and was recently voted one of the Top 100 Business Coach Bloggers.

Why authenticity is the answer to your business success

Taking an idea you have seen and making it your own is key.

I am director of a change consultancy that specialises in operational transformation using intelligent, ethical, sustainable solutions. We bring clarity and confidence to change, offering tailored solutions to enable our customers to discover their operational health, develop future goals and deliver the change required. I am passionate about remoulding businesses for better futures – to me, this goes beyond improving mere profitability and instead involves looking for high quality, lasting solutions that look after people, the planet and the bottom line. I also believe that it matters what we deliver and how we get there. Responsibility is a key value for my own company and embedded into the work we do with clients: we focus on delivering sustainable transformation through responsible change. I have extensive experience of delivering digital and business transformation within corporate businesses and public/private partnerships.

Managing Change Responsibly

Every business goes through periods of change - some level of change is necessary if you are wanting to grow, become more efficient, improve alignment, deliver digital transformation or even plan for exit. 

The question is, can we deliver this change responsibly - can we achieve our business goals whilst managing the impacts of change well?

This group is for anyone who believes that it matters what you deliver but also how you deliver it. 

This is a forum for exploring ways in which we can de
