Scale smarter, profit faster, lead with clarity.

Transform your company from plateau to momentum

After three decades growing companies across Europe—from start-up to €280 M divisions and a global EdTech group—I discovered a simple truth: growth is never just a numbers game; it’s a leadership game first. My Business Growth Coaching programme links strategy, culture and execution so your organisation can expand without burning cash, people or the founder. Growth is change, and change sticks when it follows a roadmap that lines up reason, emotion and action.

Business Growth Coaching for Founders & Scale-Up CEOs

Is this you?

  • Revenue is stuck in the “messy middle” (€5 M – €100 M) despite a strong market
  • Teams are busy yet critical projects slip, cash flow feels tight and profit lags growth
  • You spend more time fighting fires than shaping the future
  • The business depends on you to make every major decision

If any of these sound familiar, business coaching can provide the structure and discipline to break through. Part of that structure is a clear way of making tough decisions, so not every call has to route through you.

“Business coaching is specifically unique for every organisation. Unlocking and breaking through limitations that hold you and your business back is where the rubber meets the road.”

– Linus Murphy –

The Inside-Out Scale Engine™

My Business Coaching adapts the Inside-Out Leadership Framework to the whole company:

Inside-Out Element Business-level Lever
Identity → Beliefs Founder/Executive story → Brand promise
Values → Rules Operating principles → Decision guardrails
Goals → Actions Quarterly OKRs → commit, improve, review, repeat
Environment Org design, culture, systems & processes

By tightening each lever, we create a self-reinforcing Scale Engine that turns vision into sustainable revenue. The goals-to-actions lever is where setting goals the whole company can hit does most of its work.
