Compare Your Footprint.com

Compare Your Footprint is a tech start-up with a huge mission - to help your organisation to spend less time and money measuring its carbon footprint, so you can focus on reducing it.

I firmly believe that CYF  will help change the world and am proud to be part of their journey.

Compare Your Footprint is an online carbon calculator and benchmarking tool that offers you easy access to complicated data based on 20 years’ of environmental management experience. The idea being that anyone with access to data such as electricity, gas, travel, waste, water and materials use, can now use this software to calculate the carbon footprint of their whole organisation. 

Their automated carbon footprint results adhere to the high GHG Protocol Standards for scopes 1, 2 and 3 emissions. This means that you can confidently present your results within annual reports or alternative communications for customers, clients, employees and investors.

One of the most effective ways for your organisation to become more sustainable is to measure and reduce your carbon footprint. Sadly, many organisations like yours would love to “green-up” their operations but are held back by the financial and time barriers of hiring costly environmental consultants. This is particularly true for smaller organisations.  

Thousands of larger organisations across the UK are required to meet environmental regulation and report annually on their emissions, some would prefer to be able to complete this process themselves, without the need for costly consultants.
 
Environmental consultants are spending too much time using complicated spreadsheets with out-of-date reporting data, when they could be spending valuable time helping clients to reduce their footprint. To create a calculator themselves would also be too costly and time-consuming.

For more information please visit www.compareyourfootprint.com or send me a message and i'll happily make an introduction to the team.

LinkedInLocal Nottingham

I started LinkedIn Local Nottingham in June 2018 to bring together professionals in the city and help others network more effectively by putting the person ahead of the job title or profile. It's been an incredible year with over 200 people attending events throughout the year and over £2,000 raised for charity too! 

I made the tough decision to hand over the organisation of LinkedIn Local events in June 2019 because running a business, hosting a monthly event for charity, a weekly podcast and starting a family was a bit too much to manage so something had to give. Luckily the amazing Ronnie Harris and Misch Fretwell offered to take on LinkedInLocal so it will continue to run in Nottingham moving forwards - I'll be there to help out of course :)

We also have a LinkedIn Group for people wanting to network in Nottingham and I invite you to join the group and get to know other people working and doing business in this great city. There are lots of opportunities to network, learn about upcoming events and collaborate too! Be sure to get involved!

Martek Marine Ltd

Martek Marine Ltd is leading a revolution in ship safety, performance and crew welfare!

What attracted me to Martek Marine was it's vision and ambition for the future. Headed up by CEO Paul Luen, Martek was really on a mission to innovate and change the shipping industry for the better through the creation of new product offerings and new ways of thinking. 

During my time at Martek I was part of the senior leadership team planning and working on the strategic growth and development of the business. I worked closely with the CEO and Head of Global Sales to deliver a marketing strategy that helped the company reach more people on a global scale and deliver exceptional customer service resulting in a network of raving fans. 

In addition to working with Martek Marine I also worked with the other companies in the Martek Group - Martek Aviation, Martek Lifecare and Coptrz. 

I've never known a company that invests so much in the growth and development of it's staff and also has such big amitions for the future - I wish everyone in the Martek Group every success they desire. 

If you're interested in working with Martek have a look at their careers page: https://www.martek-marine.com//careers

3D Laser Mapping

3D Laser Mapping is a world-leading provider of laser scanning technology, designed to capture the world in 3D and deliver information for making decisions. Established in 1999, the company specialises in developing highly effective solutions to multinational companies around the world.

I first joined 3DLM back in 2011 as the Marketing Assistant to the CEO. At the time I had absolutely no idea what a laser scanner was let alone anything about the geospatial industry. 

Oddly enough I was introduced to the company by the CEO's wife who worked on a project I was overseeing whilst working at the NHS. She approached me at an event and asked if i'd consider working for her husbands company. 3DLM was a company on a mission - they had a small team of incredibly talented people working there that just wanted to deliver excellent customer service and build better products - I couldn't resist!

During the nearly 6 years working with 3DLM I developed my career and jumped on every opportunity I could get my hands on. I quickly learnt about the industry and the technology, attending events and ran user conferences. It didn't take me long before I was heading down the world's deepest mine in South Africa to demonstrate a new system or start talking to customers about more complex international sales negotiations. One of the many benefits of working for a small company is that you can work in many different areas of the business and develop your skills - I learnt about international trade and development, business development, senior leadership and management and also helped set up and run our regional offices in South Africa, North America and Australia.

I started out as a Marketing Assistant and ended up as the Global Sales and Marketing Manager.

Global Sales and Marketing Manager

⚙️ Engineer by study | 🧠 Sales & Marketing expert by accident | ✈️ Managing Director by invitation 

Having spent nearly two decades leading, coaching, and growing businesses in industries as diverse as aviation, mining, healthcare, sports and commercial shipping, I know first-hand how paralysing the voices in your head can be

The ones that tell you that you’re not good enough or experienced enough ✋

or the thoughts that keep stopping you by making you wonder what would happen if you were to fail 🤯

After spending years teaching and coaching engineers around sales, marketing and leadership skills I realised that the real skills we need to learn to move forwards in business weren’t the ones I was teaching

So I developed a series of keynote talks and workshops to tackle the real problem which is around how we think and manage fear

So if you’re looking for a Keynote speaker on Leadership, Change and/or Business Growth please get in touch hello@charliewhyman.com

My talks are focussed on helping leaders and aspiring leaders rethink how they approach challenges, break free from limiting beliefs, and build confidence by taking action

In January 2024, I was invited to join TGIS Aviation as Managing Director to lead a growth strategy I developed during my time as a consultant. It was a big leap, but the opportunity to help scale an established business alongside an incredible team of experts was one I couldn’t resist

Our goal at TGIS is to be the world's most trusted technical partner for aircraft engine services, building on our 23-year reputation as engine specialists. We partner with airlines and leasing companies to deliver specialist and proven Powerplant expertise

If you know me well you’ll know that I like to do things properly (like doing an Olympic weightlifting coaching qualification to help me learn how to improve my own technique and understanding of the sport) and this is why I love the team at TGIS - we’re all about

✈️ Continuous Improvement

✈️ Long-lasting relationships and partnerships

✈️ High standards and a commitment to quality and risk management

If you want to know more, please get in touch via info@tgis.aero or send me a direct message

When I’m Not Working, I’m:

👦🏼 Co-parenting my curious and energetic 5-year-old

🥾🚴‍♀️ 🏄🏼‍♀️ Hiking, cycling, paddleboarding, or wakeboarding—being outdoors is my happy place.

🥃 Talking about (and tasting) whisky, wine, and food—ask me about my first venture, an award-winning Sardinian olive oil business.

Now that you know about me, I’d love to know you 📨

Last week was a stretch week for me

I spoke at my first aviation event, the Aeropodium engine leasing & management day 

Different room, different audience, same butterflies 🦋

I also had the opportunity to spend more time with our new Head of Tech Services and learned more about prop engines as I've been knee-deep in the jet engine world for the last 2 years.

I'm so grateful to have the opportunity to work with brilliant people who teach me things, help me ask better questions and who help me think differently.

I'm also grateful for taking the leap into the speaking world as I've found speaking at events stretches you in ways you can only experience rather than imagine - it opens up deeper conversations, it forces you to constantly work on how you communicate and it introduces you to remarkable people who know so much and have amazing stories to tell. 

So if you're looking for a speaker at your next event - aviation or otherwise - give me a shout :)

Charlie Whyman

I love asking questions like:
🦦 Are you getting enough sales from your marketing efforts? 
🦦 Are you getting enough profit from your sales efforts?

I work with both senior leaders and teams to help them feel stronger with the commercial choices they make and more confident in their role.

I help them ask great questions that:

🦦 Deliver more profitable sales for the company
🦦 Improves collaboration across sales and marketing teams 
🦦 forges better relationships with customers through empathy and understanding 

I spend a lot of time helping people overcome challenges such as:

🚩 I don’t want to be seen as too salesy, pushy or spammy 

🚩 I don’t understand marketing and it makes me feel stupid and like I don’t know what i’m doing

🚩 I’m not sure how to start conversations with people and feel awkward at networking events

🚩 We’re doing lots of things but I don’t know what’s working and what’s not and I feel lost 

🚩 The team are doing good work but the board isn't seeing the value 

I do this via:

🎤 Keynote Speaking at events and conferences

🎤 Facilitating interactive training workshops that give you the skills, confidence and capability to thrive in sales and marketing roles 

🙋‍♀️ Offer one-to-one and group coaching sessions to help you implement your learning and see real results from the training

So if you’re even the slightest bit curious then I suggest you book a free intro call ☎️ to see how I could help you increase your profits, performance and productivity 🚀 https://bookme.name/charliewhyman/30-minute-call

When i’m not busy asking questions and talking about sales, marketing and technology i’m:

👦🏼 Co-Parenting my amazing 4yo and loving watching how he learns, his questions and his attitude to life
🏋️‍♀️ Trying to get back into Olympic Weightlifting despite being told I should stop lifting heavy things after injury
🥾🚴‍♀️ 🏄🏼‍♀️ 🚣🏻‍♀️ Hiking, Cycling, Wakeboarding or Paddle boarding because I love being outdoors and doing active things 
🥃 Drinking or talking about Whisky, Wine or Food - my first business was making and selling Olive Oil from Sardinia, it won 2 awards and I’m slightly obsessed with different tastes and flavours

👉 Now you know a little bit about me, I’d love to know something about you, because I am that weirdo that likes to get to know the people I connect with 😊 Send me a message and let's chat! 📩

Managing Director TGIS Aviation ✈️ | Keynote speaker on Leadership & Change 🎤 | I share tips, tools and insights about growth and building confidence through action | Amateur Olympic Weightlifter 🏋️‍♀️ | F1 fan 🏎️

If you hear someone say they hate networking…..

They have clearly never been networking on a mountain

If they work in aviation, tell them to join PowdAir Ltd - Aviation Networking Events  

So far my favourite networking event to date! 

Blue bird skies, great snow, incredible mountains and great company 

What’s not to love?!
