Business Mentoring & Strategy

 

Business Mentoring & Strategy

Every business needs to establish or regularly re-examine their business strategy and approach to ensure that it remains relevant and profitable. 

You need a mentor who is not emotionally invested in your business, who can help you to explore and test your ideas and develop a strategy so you can build a bigger and better business.

Choosing the right mentor means selecting a partner who can help you navigate the complexities of the business world, challenging you to think differently and encouraging you to broaden your horizons. This partnership is about more than advice; it’s about forging a path to a bigger, better, and more successful business.

Over the past two years my business has grown substantially and this was a direct result of Leigh’s business mentoring. Leigh’s business knowledge and coaching skills are second to none. If you are looking for a professional, caring and extremely experienced business mentor then you simply can’t go past Leigh.

I started working with Leigh at the start of 2017 at just the right pivotal moment of my business journey.  I was moving from a consultancy to a burgeoning business and Leigh’s advice and mentorship has been instrumental in helping me deliver on that transition.  Even though I am in business advisory, he made me ask myself the hard questions, made sure I understood the framework I needed in place and gave me the confidence and scope to analyse all scenarios; to be fully prepared! His wealth of practical experience and humble approachable manner are the two very reasons, I continue to recall on his teachings in my dealings every day, quote him to my other colleagues and continue to seek his advice if I’m uncertain of any challenge ahead.  I couldn’t have done it without you Leigh!

It was such a pleasure meeting the wonderful Kerryn Powell at the “Women Fit for Work” and YTM Networking event in 2015. We connected immediately and I knew her one-to-one coaching was just what I needed to take my business to the next level at networking events. I cannot thank and express my gratitude enough to Kerryn who was able to connect me with fabulous collaborators who were relevant to my business needs. Thank you Kerryn for all your direction. I absolutely love your YTM events which are run with such perfection allowing everyone to experience a real connection with each other.
