Bio
Paul Simms
Doug was excellent at communicating how to successfully approach offshore working and explaining what would work and what might not, and what level of commitment would be required.
Karen Thomas 💗 Kind Shop Founder
Doug has unlimited imagination and a creative flair. A genuine person who demonstrates real passion when working at the strategic level but is equally at home being hands on to really affect change. Possessing great communication skills with all levels of the organisation, Doug is a master at getting buy in when instigating dramatic transformation. Doug makes a success at everything he's involved in and is also a great person to be around. I couldn't recommend Doug highly enough.
