MY CAREFULLY SELECTED TEAM OF EXPERTS TO COVER ALL YOUR BUSINESS NEEDS, IN ONE PLACE.
It will always be a priority of mine to build a strong partnership network. In my 5 years of being a Founder, it’s the people I’ve met along the way that have made the experience so awesome, and I wouldn’t be where I am today without building relationships.
I take great pride in these partnerships and anyone I connect a client to has been carefully considered. I personally approached all these experts to set up ongoing partnerships for my clients, and they’ve been selected based on my experience with them and their work with Co-Founders.
Below is a snapshot of some of my partners, but I’m lucky to have many more. The areas covered are: law (multiple expertise within that), financial advice, business exit and sale, mediation, org design and people strategy, exec recruitment, consumer and market research and more.
This is why partnerships are important to me:
Connection is a core value of mine
My value as a coach is heightened when I can connect clients to other trusted experts
It expands my knowledge on the different services my clients want / need
It connects me to a wider and highly relevant client base
I get to learn from and be inspired by experts in other fields
I feel a sense of shared purpose with these partners (which isn’t to be undervalued)
