The client’s experience
“I really enjoyed working with Mark Mills! Mark is very warm and really helped me to hold the other Board Members to account. He helped me with our 500 staff and we developed new areas which I had not spotted in the 12 years I had run the company. Mark expected everybody to be on their A game and I improved my own performance as I never wanted to be the one at a Board Meeting who hadn’t completed their action points. We exited for far more than we originally envisaged and Mark led us effortlessly through the process. I could not recommend Mark highly enough”Lorna Davidson · Founder, Tactical Solutions UK Limited
