David Fielding MBE

Mark is an extraordinary superb coach. He has a lovely blend of real life business experience underpinned by a rigorous academic pedigree. His enthusiasm and natural curiosity with his ability to re-frame and dissect problems enabling supportive solution focused conversations has been of enormous help to me personally and the business that I run. I’d recommend him without hesitation.

Mark Shraga has a depth and breath of knowledge seldom matched when it comes to startups, and he was kind enough to help us with advice that is likely to prove invaluable.

      • Oct 2008 - Nov 2010

      Role focused on the integration of the V Brand into Opal/Talk Talk and the subsequent integration of various acquisitions and their channel interests into the V Partner Program. As Sales Director I enjoyed success in branding and growing V Networks with my team, from zero turnover to an annual turnover in excess of £8,500,000 in under 36 months to successfully exiting the business to Opal/Talk Talk. We then doubled this to in excess of £17,000,000 post sale to Opal with the V Management team via strategic acquisitions and strategic partner management. Show less
