    What if I were to tell you I can pinpoint the one thing that is stopping your business from reaching new heights?

    Truth be told, the answer is simple.

    The one thing that is holding your business back and getting in the way of its success is…you!

  2. 2When I decided to self-publish my book ‘Leap into HR Consulting: How to Move Successfully from Corporate to Consulting’ just a year ago on 5th November 2020 I really hoped it would be favourably received, as it truly came from my heart. I had been drawn to writing it so that could help others follow their dreams and transform from being an employee to having their own consulting business.

    I could hardly believe it when it soon went to Number 1 on the Amazon Business Consulting Book List, where it continues even a year later to dip in and out of the hot seat. To top it off, it was then announced as a finalist in the Most Inspirational HR Business Book in the Book Awards 2021.

  3. Leap into and Menopause Experts partnershipI’m so excited to announce that I have been appointed to the Panel of Experts by Menopause Experts. My Leap into HR Consulting programme has also become a partner of the social enterprise. It’s been made that bit more special because October is Menopause Awareness Month.

    It shouldn’t be an awareness month though. I believe that it’s a topic we should be talking about often. During the pandemic especially I helped lots of people set up their own consulting businesses, many of them being women trying to manage menopausal symptoms as well as managing a fulfilling and rewarding career. 

  4. Julia Crawford New ChallengesJulia is a Graduate from my Leap into HR Consulting Bootcamp. She has worked in a number of industries but for the last 14 years she has worked in the public sector. As well as being an HR consultant, she currently still works part time as head of HR for an HR shared service.

    I asked Julia ....

    Why did you decide to move into consulting?

    I have been within the same sector for a long time as it has been a fantastic opportunity to grow my career whilst being flexible enough to manage family life as well.
