If there is one universal principle which all great business leaders and business owners agree on, it is this: The Profit is in Your People!
It’s your employees and managers who day-to-day create your products and services, interact with your customers, fulfil your orders, and work in your back office… and it is your employees — at all levels — who are responsible for the ongoing growth and success of your company.
It stands to reason therefore that you want to get the very best from your people, and there is no better way of doing this than through coaching and mentoring.
All too often though, it’s only senior executives or board members who get to work with business coaches, as it is usually prohibitively expensive for coaches to work with employees at lower levels.
In People Upgrade, you’ll discover how you can take coaching and mentoring out of your boardroom and into the body of your workforce, by using a blend of the right content (which is the best-of-the best business thinking) and the right delivery approach (which is multiple-level learning and enterprise-wide mentoring).
In the book you’ll learn that when you bring mentoring into your entire organisation by using your own senior staff to mentor your junior staff, supported by a structured mentoring programme, and the magic ingredient which is the Branson Effect, the results you can achieve in terms of revenue, profit and performance growth will literally be transformational.
Start today… take mentoring out of your boardroom and give your company a people (and profit) upgrade!

“In a world where entrepreneurs have taken on the cachet of celebrity and are as often to be found portrayed in movies and in the gossip columns as they are seen with dirt under the finger nails, it is refreshing to find a book that describes the key difference between the entrepreneur and the rest – attitude. So often in life a cigarette paper’s thickness separates success from failure and Richard
has written a book that perfectly captures this and suggests a way of thinking that can transform the tin of dog food into a thoroughbred racehorse. Read it, enjoy it, steal mercilessly from it, add your own ingredient X and bring to the boil. I wish you success.”
