A Nantwich woman’s new business has grown so quickly in a few months she’s taken on her partner full-time as operations director.<\/p>\n

Emma Dechoux launched her Inspired Learning company in April last year, offering training and coaching solutions to organisations and individuals.<\/p>\n

Emma, who moved to Nantwich 13 years ago, worked in Learning and Development for various businesses for 14 years and decided to take the leap into self employment.<\/p>\n

Now she’s lured her partner Marc Shepherd to work full-time to help cope with the demand after a successful 10 months.<\/p>\n

“I am in a position where I require some help with the day to day running of the business and need to progress with the design of my brand such as a website,” she said.<\/p>\n

“I have therefore just appointed an Operations Director, Marc Shepherd. He is my partner and handed in his notice last week where he has worked as a graphic designer for 24 years!<\/p>\n

“We’re both very excited about running this business together and about the future of the business.”<\/p>\n

Emma was made redundant from Phones 4u in 2014 and moved on to work in Healthcare and Facilities Management.<\/p>\n

“I never felt truly settled and part of the organisation as I had at Phones 4u,” she recalls.<\/p>\n

“I decided I wanted the training and development that I offer to spread to more than just one organisation.<\/p>\n

“I set up my own Learning Consultancy, Inspired Learning, and took the leap into the world of self-employment.<\/p>\n

“At the end of May I handed my company car back and left behind the security that comes with a permanent job!”<\/p>\n

But Emma has not looked back since.<\/p>\n

Inspired Learning offers solutions including Management and Leadership Development workshops and programmes.<\/p>\n

She covers topics such as emotional intelligence, leading change, motivating teams, personal effectiveness, managing capability, recruitment skills, mental health in the workplace and coaching skills.<\/p>\n

“Our Personal Development topics include presentation skills, resilience, confidence, customer experience, decision making, innovation and creativity to name a few,” added Emma.<\/p>\n

“I\u2019m also a Mental Health First Aider and would like to work in this area more, supporting individuals and managers to have a healthier workplace that promotes positive mental health and self-care.<\/p>\n

“It\u2019s not all been plain sailing!<\/p>\n

“The journey this business is on is still very much in its infancy.<\/p>\n

“But as I come up to celebrating my first year I am very proud to say that the business is going from strength to strength and is growing!”<\/p>\n

Partner Marc Shepherd was a Graphic Designer at SG World in Crewe<\/a> for 24 years before quitting to join Emma’s business.<\/p>\n

“He is heading up the operations side of the business and will also look after design, website and branding,” she added.<\/p>\n

“Our next steps will be to build a team of associates to work with us, too.”<\/p>\n
