The Power of Employee Stories in Building a Culture of Connection
As Founders we need to sometimes step back and give the spotlight to our most valuable asset: the talent in out business, the people who are behind the business, those who work day in and day out, often in the background to help us achieve our business mission which we all know we cannot achieve alone. Everyone has a story to tell and a story worth sharing, and many times, a super powerful story that when shared, can have a deeply positive impact on others, on the business, on your mission.

Founders often have a strong desire to maintain control over all aspects of their business, understandably. However, realising that experts can bring unique skills and perspectives can be a crucial step in our growth as Founders.
Attract Investors, Talent & Customers: The Power of Founder Branding

Top 10 Client Philosophy
The constraint itself (of having only 10 clients) is the source of creativity to overcome the constraint and build a business that’s even stronger than we have now.

Focussing on meaningful connections. Not just for us, but for our clients' betterment too. To hold us both accountable in investing in our shared success.
