Being part of the Evolve network has been hugely important in my journey as a business owner not only on a professional level but also on a personal one. The peer group has aided my development and is helping me ‘Evolve’ into becoming a better person in all aspects. The knowledge and experiences of others who provide great insight of their experiences who are all at different stages of their journeys play a very important part in the development of everyone involved. It’s a great network of professionals.

The Evolve peer group sessions are a great place to get away from the day to day, refocus and ultimately bounce ideas off other business people.

The Evolve peer group has meant a lot to me since I joined, and more so over the last few months. People taking the time to listen to your concerns, giving brilliant and knowledgeable advice and personal encouragement. The group has been positive in the promotion of new activities, and Warren, as always, is the reassuring voice of calm, commercial, common sense

A really good peer session. As the months go by I get more ambitious, get more done and more quickly and better inspire my team to perform. I’m just about to build on that Pressure/Stress difference with my sales team because I feel that will really help.
