About Michael Walters

I’m an experienced business development leader passionate about working with companies to help them scale.I believe that with a clear purpose, the right people and effective processes almost anything is possible. It\'s something I\'ve seen and proved throughout my career turning offices from loss-making chaos to massively profitable flagships, building new teams and ramping up revenue per head year over year.Strategically, I can help on all fronts- Running strategic retreats to clarify values and purpose- Working with founders and senior management to ensure effective business structure- Setting annual and long term goals that are grounded in reality, but inspire the best: ambitious but achievable.I\'m not afraid to get my hands dirty either- Passionate about writing user stories, email copy, process workflows, business plans or job specs- Able to pull together data from SQL and transform it into dashboards and reports that just make sense- Always happy chatting with prospects or customers to explain our value prop and how it can help.I\'m a curious, self-starter, highly comfortable with ambiguous requirements, shifting timeframes and balancing multiple simultaneous projects. I believe that we are who we surround ourselves with, so high standards and a growth mindset are really important and something we should all strive for.If you\'re interested in how you can grow your company, please don\'t hesitate to reach out.Skills: Leadership, strategy, revenue growth, process optimization, automation.
