Coaching

I work individually with senior professionals in legal, accountancy and advisory firms who are moving toward partnership. At this level, technical ability is a given - what matters is the ability to win trust, lead client relationships and generate new work with confidence.

Through my ExpertToAdvisor.pro platform I provide monthly exclusive business development coaching sessions for expert sales, business development and professional practice teams in SaaS, technology, logistics, finance, legal, accounting, insurance, life sciences and consulting firms.

Acting as a fractional Head of Business Development Coaching, I help management build a successful and profitable 'trusted advisor' culture in their business developers.

My coaching provides a practical, structured approach to business development, combining one-to-one coaching - and team coaching - with proven frameworks and measurable outcomes. The focus is on real behaviour change, not theory.

The result: professionals who move from being valued experts to trusted advisors - and who look, sound and act like highly trusted advisors and rainmakers, leaders and partners.

Keynote Speaking

I get professional, leadership and sales audiences to think differently about business development, leadership communications and client impact.

My talks - on How to Win Business in the Age of AI, or How to Network to Build Business or Brand or How to Use a Fun and Effective Model to Maximise Client and Colleague Communications - are practical, insightful and grounded in nearly three decades of experience across legal, accounting, financial services, life sciences, technology and logistic industries..

Audiences leave with tools they can use, language they can adopt and perspectives that stick long after the applause fades.

No fluff. No generic motivation. Just ideas that change behaviour.

Workshops

Turn Expertise into Influence and Turn Conversations into Clients.

I deliver in-house High Trust Advisor workshops for sales, business development and professional practice (legal, accounting) teams who need to win work without selling their soul.

These are practical, senior-level sessions in sales, communication, networking and client conversations - designed for expert business development and sales teams - as well as lawyers, accountants and consultants - who already know their craft but want to build compelling levels of trust and influence with prospects and clients.

Built on my Highly Trusted Advisor framework, each workshop sharpens how your people think, speak and show up with clients - so relationships deepen, opportunities expand and business development becomes a natural extension of professional credibility, not an awkward add-on.

No scripts. No hype. Just better conversations, stronger relationships and measurable commercial impact.
