Alan Nelson
Managing Director at Nelson Croom Ltd.

“The board thought taking on a board observer was an interesting concept though not realising the full potential this offers a small business like ours. Heather matched us with a useful senior executive from BDO and their Head of Strategic Development. Zoe brings with her big business thinking and planning whilst we offer her an agile way of approaching business plus boardroom experience to support her career. So we have a win-win situation. Heather and her team take a careful approach to matching someone to a board, thinking through not only the skills and experience but the personality and fit with our business. In a short period of time we have already profited from this opportunity and would whole-heartedly recommend this programme to other boards seeking to widen their board skills and knowledge”
