I founded Financial Planning practice Ovation Finance Ltd. I sold a majority of Ovation to an Employee Ownership Trust in 2018, and now help other businesses do the same through the Eternal Business Consultancy.
I have been advocating the use of coaching skills by advisers for many years, and recently founded the new institute for advisers, the Initiative for Financial Wellbeing.
I achieved my Diploma in Business Coaching through Jan Bowen-Nielsen’s business, Quiver Management.
