Decision & Direction Session

When you need to work something out.

You’ve got a decision to make, a problem to solve or an opportunity you’re considering and you’ve reached the point where thinking about it on your own isn’t getting you any further.

Maybe there are several options and you can see the pros and cons of all of them. Maybe something in the business isn’t working, but you’re too close to it to see what needs to change. Or perhaps you’ve got an idea you’re excited about and need someone experienced to help you work out whether (and how) to move it forward.

This is a focused business consultation where we get underneath what’s really going on, explore the options, challenge assumptions and work out what makes sense for you and your business.

Sometimes you don’t need ongoing support. You just need the right person in the room.

What could we work through?

There’s no set agenda for a Decision & Direction Session. You bring the decision, problem, idea or opportunity you want to work through and we focus the conversation around that.

You might come to me because:

  • You’ve been offered an opportunity and can’t decide whether it deserves a yes.

  • You know something isn’t working, but you’re too close to it to see what the real problem is.

  • You’ve got several priorities competing for your attention and need to work out what actually comes first.

  • You’re considering a new service, direction or change and want to think through the implications before committing.

  • You’ve got an idea you want to pursue but need to work out what it would actually take to make it happen.

  • You’re facing a decision around your team, systems or the way the business operates and would value an experienced outside perspective.

Or it might simply be something you’ve been turning over in your head for weeks and you’re ready to stop going round in circles.

You don’t need to arrive knowing the answer - that’s what the session is for.

  • “What stood out to me most was how seen I felt in the session. It wasn’t just about my business, it was about me - how I think, how I felt and what I actually wanted. That changed everything. You created a space where I could properly think, without distraction or pressure, and that alone made such a difference. By the end, things that had been going round in my head for weeks suddenly felt simple. Not easy necessarily, but clear. And that clarity gave me the confidence to move forward.”

  • “I came into the session feeling completely overwhelmed. I had so many ideas, so many things I thought I should be doing, and no real sense of what actually mattered. What I didn’t expect was how quickly things would start to feel clearer just by talking it through. You have such a calm way of listening, I never felt rushed or like I needed to have the ‘right’ answers. By the end of the session, I had a completely different perspective. Not a long to-do list, but a clear sense of direction and what I could let go of. That alone lifted a huge weight. It felt less like a strategy session and more like coffee with someone who really cared about me and my business who helped me make finally make sense of everything I was carrying.”

  • “I’ve had plenty of business conversations before, but this felt very different. You don’t jump in with advice or try to fix things too quickly. You really take the time to understand what’s going on, not just in the business, but for me. There’s a patience and calmness to how you work that makes it easy to open up and be honest about what’s actually happening behind the scenes. What I found most valuable was how you reflected things back. You picked up on things I hadn’t fully realised myself, and that’s what created the clarity. I left the session feeling lighter, clearer, and much more confident in the decisions I needed to make. Thanks so much Jen”

Investment

£450 for a focused two-hour session, either online or in person (where practical).

This isn’t an ongoing commitment or a packaged programme. It’s dedicated time to get underneath a specific decision, problem or opportunity with an experienced Business Consultant alongside you. We’ll use the session to unpick what’s going on, explore the options, challenge assumptions and work out what makes sense for you and your business. Sometimes the most valuable thing you can do isn’t add another action to the list. It’s make the right call, stop going round in circles and know what happens next.

FAQs

  • Not always. Some clients come straight into a project or sprint. But if you're unsure what you need, this is usually the right place to start.

  • No. This is a focused business consultation built around a real decision, problem or opportunity in your business. I’ll bring my experience, perspective and questions to the conversation and I’ll challenge, suggest and advise where it’s useful.

  • For many business owners, the session is all they need - they leave knowing what they’ve decided, what needs their attention and what happens next.

    If our conversation uncovers something that needs further support, we can talk about what that could look like. There’s never any expectation to continue working together.
