I have worked closely with Mike on two cases.
One was distressed, and one was going through a period of rapid growth

Mike develops an extremely good knowledge of a business very quickly and is therefore able to identify the areas that are causing problems, and drive the necessary changes to correct these problems

Mike is particularly good at getting people on board with the change that needs to take place.

Mike is highly motivated, dynamic and hard working. He is inspirational and I very much enjoyed working with him and learning from him

I would strongly recommend Mike for SME businesses that are facing challenges (negative and positive) and require material change operationally, financial and strategic

Mike has an uncanny knack of identifying how unprofitable businesses can be made profitable and thereby producing money making opportunities for owners and other stakeholders.

Mike has helped focused our business and managed us through a very difficult time, looking and planning forwards with a financial strategy enabled us to avert what could have been a potentially unmanageable situation!

“Due to the down turn in business in 2008 and the lack of profitable trading in 2 of the group companies it became inevitable that we would have to restructure the core business.  
With this in mind i engaged the services of Mike.This decision to bring Mike in was essential to gave me the ability to quickly and objectively review complex situations and simplify the apparently unintelligible in to a clear series of improvement actions and thereafter carry them out.  The result is that the reorganised and restructured trading company is now achieving record profits and the Group as a whole is rapidly building a cash surplus for reinvestment.  One of the best decisions I have ever made was to have Mike involved in my business”.
