The smart way to get to the top, and when you get there, stay there
We help professionals in practice make partner. You know, accountants, lawyers, consultants normally from Big 4, Magic Circle, mid-tier and large international and national firms. People just like you who are technical experts and sell their time for money.
We’ll give you that vital edge you need to progress your career but take an informed choice about whether partnership is right for you.
YOUR CHALLENGES
If you are going to get through your partnership admissions process at the first attempt (or this time around) you need to be prepared. Not only will you need great numbers, a well-written and succinct cast-iron business case but also a handful of advocates, sponsors and mentors championing your cause.
No clients of your own? No progression to partner. That’s the long and the short of it. Learn how to choose a niche, create a business development plan which works and the right mindset, processes and skills to win the bigger and better clients. You know. The ones which will get your career noticed in your firm.
If you can’t make yourself indispensable you can’t get promoted to the next level. That means you need to learn how to lead and manage a team, to free you up to do the higher value stuff.
You can’t afford to squander time when you work in practice. To hit your billable targets means you need to be able to show up every day as the best version of yourself.
OUR PROGRAMMES
YOU WANT TO MAKE PARTNER. YOU’RE READY TO MAKE PARTNER.
AND YOU’RE ABOUT TO DO IT FASTER (AND WITH LESS EFFORT) THAN EVERYONE ELSE OUT THERE.
With your raw talent, unbelievable smarts, and unflagging determination, the only thing keeping you from making partner within the next three years (if not sooner) is access to the right strategy and step-by-step guidance to crush it with confidence.
And our How to Make Partner program is your roadmap to:
- Bypass the hurdles that hold others back,
- Build on your existing talents in the right way,
- Get the attention of your partners, and
- Gain the essential skills you need to make (and succeed as) partner.
Even if you’re convinced that…
… it’s too late for you…
… it’s too early to start preparing…
… you don’t have the time to commit to a program.
How to Make Partner is your chance to grab hold of your dream on your terms, according to your timeline, and you can start right now.
Even if you’re confident that you already have everything you need, and that you’ll manage fine on your own…
… wouldn’t it be great to gain the assurance that you’re on the right track? You know, just to make sure all of your bases are covered.
With How to Make Partner, you’ll learn:
- How to build and fearlessly pitch such a compelling Business Case and Personal Case that your firm has to admit you the partnership,

Before I started working with Heather I was well-respected and seen as a ‘safe pair of hands’ but struggling to build my practice. Heather’s input and guidance was instrumental in helping me grow my profile both internally and externally, and maximise the opportunities to sell myself in my business case for partner. As a result of working with Heather I made partner 18 months later and have almost doubled my client portfolio.
I have had a huge amount of fun working with Heather for the last 12 months and she has helped me establish myself as the firm’s expert on independent retailers and FMCG. I’ve really enjoyed our time together as I have come away from each session energised. As a result of working with Heather I now have the luxury of picking the clients I want. No more relying on following up leads from the telemarketer for me. So many positive things have come out of our relationship, not least a 5x return on my investment, targeted introductions from her black book and 6 pieces of PR in the right trade press. Heather gives me energy, focus and accountability as well as a rich vein of ideas about content I can write to help me attract in the right sort of clients. I highly recommend Heather’s services to any accountant or lawyer who wants to stand out and be able to attract the right clients to them.
Michele coached me through the period of my career when I moved from senior manager to director, and subsequently through to partner. She brought her experience to bear with insightful observations, and astute suggestions, and her help and advice were invaluable. I have no hesitation in recommending her to other accountants with partnership aspirations.
John recently coached me on my successful run to Partnership. I can honestly say I have never worked with anyone who has Johns skills and background and applies them so effectively.
John was everything and more I wanted from a coach. He was always approached and available, and responsive given time zone differences.
He was supportive yet challenging and always thought provoking and had the ability to make me focus on what I needed to do/achieve.
I would have no hesitation in recommending John to anyone.
