Daniel Clough General Manager, Entrepreneur & Ops Guy

I can help you think through changes you would like to make and then plan for the best way to implement those changes. I was given a lot of responsibility, early on in my career and was quickly throw into managing large scale change for big groups of people (development and operational teams). Some of these includes: - moving support teams from 9-5 to 24 x 7 support - team restructures - key people changes - controversial changes in direction and strategy - shutting down parts of the businesses and making people redundant - changing or implementing processes - implementing and changing bonus programs Change needs to be treated delicately. It should be seen as a project, often with several phases. Timelines, project plans, stakeholder groups, accountability and regular reviews need to be considered. A badly managed change can be very costly. It can ultimately lead to grinding to a halt and losing great people. I can help you minimize the risk of this.

Being personally productive takes practice. But once you get in the right flow, you’ll find yourself achieving lots, with less effort than before and feeling a lot more at ease. I’ve been studying and experimenting what it takes to be personally productive in both work and life for as long as I can remember. I’ve read hundreds of books and tried many things, and have settled on what works. Often it takes ruthless prioritisation and focus to be personally productive. It requires a commitment to certain habits, routines and rituals which help you focus and manage your time better. Whatever it is you’re trying to be better at, I can help you get more done, better and faster.

I’ve personally hired well over 100 people and been involved in the hiring of many more. I’ve also led the growth of a company from 50 to 500 people over a four year period. I have experience of hiring at all levels (Chief to entry level) and have built up a good understanding of what is important in the hiring of new people - as well as easy mistakes to make, that can turn out very costly. I can help with: - when to hire internally and externally - and how to effectively manage both types of situations for best chance of success building internal recruitment teams - how to get candidates excited about working for you recruitment process - from first speaking to a candidate through to making them an offer (for all levels and types of people) - what to look for in people - focus on skills and character traits - making offers and sealing the deal - how to keep new starters engaged between making an offer and them starting - how to on board new starters of all levels - how to manage the communications of new people internally - particularly key / high level people Whether you’re looking for help in hiring a specific role or hiring many people in the foreseeable future, get in touch so we can chat about how I can help.

By the age of 30, I became mortgage free and built a big buffer of savings to give me lots of freedom in my life. I achieved it through developing and sticking to certain financial habits and investing. I can help you understand the important factors in building personal wealth and how to build habits that allow you to do the same. It doesn’t matter if you’re in debt and can’t see a way forward - or feel like you’re on the right track and want to get there faster. I can help.
