Mentors

Having established Chilly Cow over 10 years ago, I have seen it flourish from concept to a well-established Welsh brand. It is important to appreciate the hard work that goes into developing a business and having gained a first-class honours degree in business along the way brought valuable insight to the business in all aspects, helping me to develop areas we don’t always consider as small business owners.

With nearly four decades of executive business, marketing, sales, speaking, training and most importantly, real-life, in-the-trenches experience, my views are radically different on business from what the market place says you should do.

My passion lies in help business develop a simple and easy plan to make profit, gain clients and build authority in your space.    

I have been in senior sales leadership for 25 years internationally and nationally. I currently professionally help businesses in North Wales and Cheshire scale their businesses using world class sales methodologies and business tools. I’m mostly experienced in B2B sales however I can comfortably sit with business that are B2C and E-Commerce.

I have an ILM Level 7 qualification in Strategic Leadership.

Adam is the lead at the practice and a specialist in construction design and coordination of all disciplines. He is committed to Diogel's mission to create future-proofed residential spaces that offer long-term functionality and innovative style. Principally, he is business and developer-minded, which ensures that all schemes put the financial requirements first.

I developed a strong and stable career with Xerox over 20 years in various senior management positions. I have a diverse set of transferable skills and considerable experience that I can use to help others. I am an enthusiastic experienced business professional, confident leader and inspirational communicator. I have a demonstrable track record of effectual national and global service and account management, exceeding performance targets and delighting customers.

Hello I am delighted to be a mentor with Business Wales.

A senior hospitality and tourism operator with multi-site, multi-brand and turnaround experience. I excel at supporting the creation of winning teams focused on quality and exceeding expectations: delivering return to investors and building brand value. Key strengths include: decisive leadership, analytical and strategic managerial skills, concise and honest communication complimented by an engaging style which inspires confidence.

Prior to retirement  (in 2014) I was Managing Director of a medium size company in South Wales for 20+ years following a prior career in manufacturing and sales management roles and also including earlier senior finance roles (FCMA qualified).

I have extensive exporting experience both in Europe and the USA and have travelled widely in these markets and elsewhere globally.

It is a privilege to be selected as a Mentor for Business Wales!
I have worked as an executive leadership coach and organisational change consultant since 1995. Before that I led my own, very successful, business in New York. I have a proven track record in working with senior leaders to measurably improve business results. I do this by improving the quality of the conversation’s leaders have with each other and their people – whilst working on their ‘live’ business issues and challenges.

Hello!
I hope that I’ll be able to help you to take your business to the next stage. 
Although I have an MBA and an ILM level 7 Diploma in Executive Coaching and Mentoring, I think you’ll find that it is my experience in running and growing organisations as diverse as a healthcare company, a construction trade association and a consultancy, that is of real practical benefit.
