WORK HISTORY
Top Dog Aka Managing Director @Raising The Baa
The marketing and client relationship engine behind the scenes.Client host, camera operator and general dogsbody (forget Top Dog!) at many of our clients’ days away at our farmland venues.Capitalising on over 30 years of my partner\'s shepherding experience and our 10 years of independent business owner mentoring and coaching, Raising the Baa combines our passion for personal development, team-work, the outdoors and farming, in particular sheep Entertain, disrupt, frustrate and ultimately celebrate with corporate execs through a ewe-nique combo of farm-based team building challenges and chill-out activities on sheep farms across England. As featured on BBC One Show and many other media, Raising the Baa helps develop teams like no other training company in the world.Recent clients include Boots, Zimmer Biomet, Dreams, Triodos Bank and McCarthy Stone. Many other well-known companies over the last 12 years are often surprised by what can be learned from the world of shepherding. People talk about their day on the farm for years to come, by which we are genuinely humbled and delighted.Is it the shared ovine experience? The laughter? No screens? The fresh air? The learnings? The calming influence of being in nature? Likely a combination of all.Let me know what you and your team is in need of right now: ↪ c•••••••@raisingthebaa.com or schedule a call: https://bit.ly/just15mins

ABOUT CAROLINE PALMER
Are you spending another day sitting in front of your screen in the same four walls as yesterday? And the day before and the day before that?Your team are great, but you hardly see them anymore.In fact, when was the last time you all got together (other than those weekly update meetings!)?It’s not your fault. It’s simply the way corporate working patterns have developed- 90% virtual versus in-person meetings- Scheduled coffee chats rather than the impromptu trip to grab a brew with a colleague or two- Putting on weight or tightening hamstrings through too much sitting – no need to walk between meetings or even the printer! Tell-tale signs of a team losing its mojo:• It takes months to sort any kind of get-together as diaries are rammed with virtual meetings• Project deadlines being missed • Increased levels of absenteeism• Lack of small talk or laughter in the workplace or in virtual meetings • Previously switched-on co-workers seeming discombobulated The anti-dote?A liberal dose of fresh air, totally unplugged, could be just the tonic. For over a decade, companies including Dreams, Poundland, J P Morgan, Google and Boots have taken their teams to down tools and spend the day on a sheep farm with Raising the Baa.Team Building – Wellness – Playful Learning - Stress Relief – and more.It’s all here for your team.🧡 Putting purpose before profit, every client programme enables Raising the Baa to help rural African families out of poverty in partnership with Ripple Effect. To this end we are particularly passionate about helping sustainably conscious organisations and those who support dyslexic thinking (as per my partner and co-founder Chris).ASSOCIATES NEEDEDIf you\'re a facilitator with a wealth of experience in one or both of these areas:1) Leadership and Team Development2) Wellness in the Workplace Let\'s have a 1-1 and see if there\'s a good fit.In addition if you represent a World Class Training Company who would like to offer something truly left-field to your corporate clients, let’s talk turkey – er, sheep Drop me a line ↪ c•••••••@raisingthebaa.com or schedule a call: https://bit.ly/just15mins
