Meet Your Chair
Our founder is the MD of The Strategic Circle and Real World Consultancy, Co-Founder of the Ripple Effect, and an author, speaker and post it note addict with 10+ years of senior-level experience in Strategy and Governance.
"My role is to provide the perfect balance of support and challenge, without any of the corporate bureaucracy."
An Approach Built for All Brains
Not every successful founder's brain works alike. Because we understand that learning, processing, and strategising happen differently, our structure is designed to be fully neurodivergent friendly.
Structure, Not Rigidity
Flexible Delivery
Empathy and Understanding
We even have a specialist neurodivergent coach on our team.
"Before working with The Strategic Circle, I felt overwhelmed by the very idea of scaling my business. Thanks to Emma's expertise and support, I gained the confidence and knowledge I needed to succeed. I'm now more settled, productive, and happier than ever in my thriving business. Emma and the team have been instrumental in my growth. They've helped me think strategically, improve my operations, and achieve my ambitious goals."
