Consulting

Our purpose is to help our clients achieve their potential, as individuals to be the person they want to be and to create the businesses they dream to have and from this to create wealth for the local economy now and to leave a legacy for the future in the communities where we are located.

We have listed below some of the reasons we begin working with individuals and businesses to support this purpose.

  • You have too much to do and not enough time
  • You have a vision for the business but have an outdated strategy and plan
  • Your margins are under pressure
  • You are struggling with staff engagement
  • You have lots of ideas for the growth of the business but implementing these are a challenge
  • You are working very long hours which is having an impact on your personal life
  • You have a new product/service to launch but are struggling with sales
  • You are losing business to competitors
  • You need support with implementing change in the business
  • You need an external sounding board, someone impartial from the business

Testimonials

Joining the HL Business Leader Group has been a game-changer for me. It’s a place where I can hit pause on the everyday stresses of running a business and connect with other leaders and learn from David and Jaqueline. The conversations are always eye-opening and provide new ways to think about business and success.

Every time we meet, I walk away with fresh ideas, practical solutions, and a renewed sense of focus. It’s like a reset button that helps me stay sharp and keep growing.

Niall Chapman, Director

Blue2 Digital

Following a promotion to Director and co-running the business, the Business Leader Group membership has been an amazing resource and support. I always leave a session inspired having had great conversations and insights with fellow business leaders.

The group is welcoming and non-judgemental, and I quickly realised that people within the group have had similar challenges and are always willing to share their experiences and solutions. The connections I have made through the members have helped me grow and have supported the business as we navigate change.

Roslyn Eckfords, Director

United Industrial Supplies

Learning in a peer environment of other CEOs and MDs is a big benefit to me. Being part of the Business Leader Group provides me with an effective framework for contextualising any opportunities or challenges I encounter.

In addition, the business tools that you learn from being part of the group are very practical and can be implemented into your business easily and effectively and have delivered return on investment.

It’s a great group to be part of and I would recommend it to any CEO or MD of a business who is looking for a peer group of senior leaders who understand what it means to run and lead a business.

Steve Ross, CEO

Shackleton Technologies

I’ve been a member of the Henderson Loggie Business Leader’s Group since 2018. Membership of that peer group has been hugely valuable to me, as part of my own leadership development, and in turn to supporting our business growth.

The peer group sessions are always interesting and thought-provoking and have offered a real opportunity to pause and reflect on what we are doing. They are also a great opportunity to come together with people across a wide cross-section of industries – leadership can sometimes feel a bit isolated, and the peer group sessions are great for reinforcing that all businesses have issues and hurdles to overcome, and it’s not just us!

The one-to-one coaching sessions that run alongside the BLG sessions hold me accountable and offer challenge, support and a safe space to rant (where appropriate).  David and Jacqueline have been an enormous support to both me personally, to my other partners and to our business more widely.
