Enabling organisations to improve their PERFORMANCE and reduce COSTS by developing their PEOPLE”
We believe that any LEADER can improve their ORGANISATIONS PERFORMANCE by COACHING THEIR PEOPLE, because it CREATES IMPROVEMENT THAT IS SUSTAINABLE
We are not just another management consultancy, here's why:
💬 We are coaches first, consultants second which means we are focussed on building capability. As each day goes by you need us less and less as opposed to the typical consulting model of needing me more.
🙋 We transition managers into leaders, rather than consolidating the idea that managers manage people, we help move to leading people and managing things. Being part of a team that is more led than managed drives higher levels of engagement and connection to the organisation. Business units with engagement scores in the top 25% have 10% stronger Customer metrics
🌟We provide bespoke solutions based on the challenge as it allows us to build the best solution for the client. Having a solution that is the right fit leads to a better quality outcome
💻 We work virtually or face to face which means we can be just as effective regardless of how you run your operations, especially in the post C-19 era. You can drive improvement whether you’re in the office or working with remote teams
🧠 We target habits and behaviours which means rather than just giving you a set of tools and techniques we are helping at a deeper level to design the cultural elements you want in your organisation. This leads to increased employee engagement due to the approach and in turn improved customer performance as your people drive your customer agenda
😂 We build FUN into what we do so rather than being one dimensional, predictable and un-inspiring we choose to add as much fun as possible to how we do things. Recent studies have shown that fun at work can boost productivity and reduce sick days.

The Good Business Pays campaign was launched on the 14th May 2021 to encourage the UK’s largest companies to fast track payments to small suppliers, helping them bounce back from the COVID-19 pandemic and injecting vital capital into the economy.
This is a problem that has existed in the UK for over forty years. But despite the great efforts of successive governments, new technology and many people and organisations, the problem for small businesses waiting a long time to get paid still exists. We aim to bring an end to slow and late payments.
Small businesses are a growth engine for the UK economy, employing 61% of the private sector workforce (16.8 million) and generating 52% of turnover. Yet 50,000 go out of business each year due to cash flow problems.
Developed initially with the help of the Federation of Small Businesses, the Good Business Pays campaign has the support from the country’s other leading business groups including the CBI, Make UK, British Chambers of Commerce, Institute of Directors and more than 20 other specialist trade or industry groups. We have also built cross-party political support for tackling late payment and have a strong working relationship with the Department for Business & Trade. Our campaign has attracted interest from governments in Australia, Europe and the United States.
Between them, these groups represent hundreds of thousands of UK businesses who in turn serve millions of customers. Our insights will always be available free of charge to small businesses and our campaign exists because of the support of our Corporate Partners: Mastercard, Natwest Group, Barclays and Intuit.
This is a time for leadership – a time to put in place everything we can to ensure our small businesses gain the certainty and confidence to create growth in the UK economy. The solutions are there to make this happen, so we believe it is purely a question of whether the will exists in leadership to make this commitment real.
We will call out poor payment performance and celebrate the best. In late 2021, we introduced the annual Good Business Pays Fast Payer Award which was be awarded only to companies who demonstrate good practice in fast and on-time payments to their smaller suppliers over time. But all companies can and should make a commitment to work towards this goal – it’s the right thing to do.
