Testimonials
Amit Mehta | Chief Investment Officer
Engaged with Sara to discuss options for capital raising and how to scale the business. Potential revenue opportunities, drawing on her extensive transformation expertise.
Lucy Sorell | Legal Director
Worked with Sara while she was providing strategic advice to a Tech business. I observed that Sara gave exceptional advice and mentorship to the CEO. We also worked together on a sensitive and difficult employee relations project in which Sara played a pivotal role. She handled the situation with courage and tact, as well as providing valuable insight into how it affected the wider strategy of the business and learning points for the future. She was great to work with – collaborative, responsive and great at getting the best out of people. I would recommend Sara to any business or individual founder looking for strategic support delivered in a wise and empathetic manner.
Alexander Jaye | Chief Revenue & Growth Officer
Sara’s strategic consultancy has been invaluable for addressing specific priorities when needed. Her adaptable approach and sharp insights have supported improvements in decision-making and organisational focus. I highly recommend her to any organisation seeking thoughtful, results-driven support.
Diederik Van Wassenaer | Board Chairman
Sara and I have worked together for many years, first at ING where we both worked in the Wholesale Banking division and where both members of ING’s Diversity Council and later at NBCC where we were colleagues in the Board. Sara enjoys a sharp intellect, but she combines this with a practical and analytical approach to business and a warm personality. She has a positive sense of humour which she often uses to deflect tensions or enhance an interaction, I would without hesitation recommend her for executive and non executive positions but given her analytical skills and mind set she would be highly qualified for project and program management positions.
