For most successful founders, the thought of exiting the business you’ve poured your life into isn’t just a financial decision,it’s a profound, and often daunting, personal one. You’ve built more than a company, you’ve built an identity. I understand this because I’ve seen it from every angle.
As a founder myself, I know the dedication it takes to build a successful SME. I also know what it’s like to be on the other side of the table. In my corporate career, I was responsible for leading due diligence and managing the complex integration of acquired businesses. I saw firsthand how the process was expertly managed from a financial and legal perspective, but often completely overlooked the human dimension for the founder.
This experience became the foundation for my work today. I partner with founders to ensure they are as prepared for their personal transition as their business is for the transaction.
As an accredited executive coach, I provide a confidential and structured framework to help you find clarity and confidence. We focus on two key areas that are often neglected but are critical for a successful exit:
My coaching is grounded in proven methodologies. I hold a Professional Practitioner Diploma in Executive Coaching from AoEC and am an accredited Self-Actualization Coach with the Center for Human Potential, ensuring our work is tailored to you as a whole person.
The first step to a successful exit is understanding where you stand today. My confidential Succession Readiness Quiz is a simple, 5 minute self-assessment designed to give you instant clarity on your preparedness.
It’s the perfect starting point for our conversation.
My formal coaching training provides a proven framework for our work but my advice is always grounded in the practical realities of running a business and not abstract theory.
