You want EVERYONE to feel included in your organization, because you know that when all employees, no matter their identities and backgrounds, are valued for what they uniquely offer, magic happens.
But talking about Diversity, Equity & Inclusion (DEI) is surprisingly hard. It strikes at our core values and beliefs, and people get uncomfortable, which is why so many organizations get stuck. This insightful model will help you lead beyond the discomfort and develop a truly inclusive mindset. It’s a lifetime’s work, but it starts in just 6 minutes!
Sales is dead. Long live selling.
The digital age has rendered traditional sales tactics obsolete. Buyers demand more than transactional relationships – they seek partners who understand their journey, anticipate friction, and deliver value at every stage.
Infinite Selling offers a revolutionary blueprint for this new era, equipping leaders with the strategies to transform revenue performance and build enduring commercial success.
At its core, the INFINITE methodology redefines selling as a dynamic, end-to-end process tailored for modern business challenges. By mastering the eight pillars – Interest, Need, Friction, Intent, Navigate, Inspire, Timing, and Execute – you can unlock a increase in deal size, a boost in revenue win rates, and a surge in cross-selling opportunities.
Grounded in digital literacy, customer-centricity and strategic agility, this is an actionable framework to navigate complex buyer journeys, from initial engagement to post-sale advocacy.
It’s hard to be left taking care of your family all by yourself. Parenting alone in the wake of domestic violence, intense conflict or traumatic, unexpected events, makes being ‘the parent who stayed’ even more difficult.
Are you standing in the ruins of your family wondering what the hell you have to do to get back to being ok again?
Has the amount of conflict, aggression and shame that came with separation/divorce floored your and your kids?
You deserve to be happy, no matter how awful this has been.
Parenting alone after traumatic family breakdown is relentless, lonely, scary and hard. The nights you sit on the stairs crying after the kids finally fall asleep. The days you can barely get out of bed but push on through because no-one else is going to pick up the pieces. The times you watch your children crumple into anger, despair and frustration and you simply don’t know what to do.
If you feel that you’re stuck in the trenches, this book is for you. It’s for you, if even lifting your eyes to the path ahead feels like putting yourself in the firing line. It is for you if you’re just about getting through the day you’re in. It’s for you if you know that life cannot change when you have no perspective, no vision, and no plan.
You can figure out how to pick up all the broken pieces of your life and put them back together again.

Can we be both commercially focused and human at work?
We talk a lot about human-centric leadership – putting people, culture and inclusivity at the heart of business.

Is it possible to put humanity at the heart of what we do without sacrificing performance?
Drawing upon coaching principles, HUMAN-WISE offers a unique practical framework to help you explore these ideas for yourself, and then apply them to others around you. Helen Wada is an experienced business development leader and executive coach who specializes in developing human-centric commercial leaders. With her business, The Human Advantage, she brings core coaching skills to life, linking them to a commercial focus. This book will transform how you approach conversations and help you build the resilience you need to be successful, in business and in life.
HUMAN-WISE is an essential read for any leader looking to develop themselves, grow their business and build a more human working world.
