Listening - Helping you discover its true power🔸️Coach | Speaker

Proper update pending...

In the meantime, I'm looking to talk to people as I build out a new offer for Finance Leaders.

I spent over 15 years working Finance jobs within industry - retailers, manufacturers, FMCG - before switching into coaching.

So, if you're working in a Finance leadership role and you're stuck when it comes to anything people related - your team, colleagues, manager etc. and you'd like to transform where that's all going and how you can influence things....

And you're up for an open conversation around it, then it would be great to chat.

Full disclosure: It's not a sales call, but yes you are helping inform how I can craft something to help solve the real problems people like yourself are experiencing. In return, feel free to use the time to ask me anything, or explore something that might be live for you right now.

If you're curious, send me a DM, and we can go from there.

PS That chat can simply be one just in the DMs as well.
