With you every step of the way.

  • See where you’re at with the Scorecard. And get it right first time, with the Growth Framework. 

    You’re supported to get the right foundations in place, and to manage them well, right from the start.  This is in core areas that have most impact on sustainable growth. But it also positively impacts every other area of your business too.

  • Keep on the right trajectory with the Growth Framework, as you start to add to your team and other resources.

    You can ensure that all new resources that you introduce, are quickly embedded, and efficient from the start. 

    Every person you hire will have a great journey from day one, and be more successful and productive with you than elsewhere, because of your highly effective onboarding, development and training (all of which includes your Growth Framework content).

    Then, because your values are reflected onto all your tech, processes and systems, all new people can quickly and easily apply these to a high quality.

  • Maintain the heart and soul of your business with the Growth Framework, as it becomes more established.

    Maximise wider growth opportunities, using deep account management and “lemon-squeezing” approaches. The Growth Framework content will support deep understanding and application of growth knowhow in your established markets and those similar that are naturally compatible for your teams to focus on.

  • Ensure crystal clear focus with the Growth Framework, as you scale, while maintaining your core values. 

    Replicate and expand your proven model for expansion into similar, new and different markets, tailoring your Growth Framework for new regions.

  • Include value accelerator factors in your Growth Framework. And benchmark suitability of potential acquisitions with the Scorecard.

    The replicable growth model created through the Growth Framework supports next tier leaders and managers to maintain growth trajectories. This can be a major factor in favourable mergers and acquisition valuations.

“When we sold the business, fundamental to this was our profits growth and the operational platform. These promoted confidence in our ability to leverage the business dynamically, growing scale and profits at the same time.”
— Founder CEO, global recruitment firm.

  • Operational platform was fundamental to one firm concept, premium value and business sale.

    “We created a 'one firm' concept and management felt more confident in training new joiners, with the operational platform to base their training and management on. Training and performance improved and became much more consistent. New joiners on average were profitable 5 months quicker than had been historically the case. Profitability improved by 20% in the first year; when we sold the business, fundamental in this sale was our profits growth and the operational platform. These promoted confidence in our ability to leverage the business dynamically, growing scale and profits at the same time.”

    Founder CEO, global recruitment firm.

  • Completely transformed my business.

    “This has completely transformed my business —not just in how I lead my team, but in shifting my entire perspective on what I once thought was “good enough” to the thriving business we have today.

    The Growth Framework (along with coaching and guidance) has been instrumental in this evolution. The way you’ve redefined training—ensuring it’s deeply embedded into both business owners and their teams—is nothing short of revolutionary. It has been the ultimate game-changer for us. Thank you for everything and for pioneering this incredible new development. It’s truly next level!”

    Founder CEO - Healthcare recruitment firm.

  • Values and sales habits embedded into the fabric of the business.

    “Everything we do is based on our cultural values and standards for excellence frameworks, all of which are now embedded in the fabric of our business, and more recently into our existing technology. The team were excited to be working together, to learn and grow as individuals and in their teams. Business development has gone from non-existent to also being part of the fabric of the business. Our fill rate, which was already high, is now 90%.”

    Managing Director, specialist global recruitment consultancy.

  • Professional support and coaching through tricky situations.

    “I can imagine weeks like the one I’ve just had would be very difficult without the professional support and coaching I have. You are a massive part of me being able to see the learning and growth in tricky situations. Thank you, I appreciate and value having you in my corner.”

    Head of department, specialist global IT recruitment consultancy.

  • Leadership course created a golden thread of self-development through our business.

    “Having our team complete the Practical Leadership and Management course acts as a golden thread through our business, enabling mid-level managers to coach and develop each other. We have seen an increase in confidence and standard of delivery across all our leaders.”

    Head of department, specialist global IT recruitment consultancy.

  • An exceptional mentor and business coach.

    “I want to extend a heartfelt thank you to Denise Walker who has been an exceptional mentor and business coach. Your patience, empathy, and guidance have been transformative. The foundational work you helped me with and your belief in my leadership have made a real difference. We’ve achieved so much together.”

    Founder CEO - Healthcare recruitment firm.

“I don’t believe that business leaders should have to choose between a quality business and business growth; between high profits and people loving it; or between achieving their vision and settling for less.

Since starting the company in 2006, I’ve distilled decades of experience into helping ambitious leaders create workplaces where people thrive, build sustainable businesses, and deliver exceptional customer experiences.”  

Denise Walker - Founder & MD
