Honoured & humbled to share that Iโve been awarded an MBE for services to business, female entrepreneurship, & skills๐๏ธ
This is for every conversation, every door held open, every person encouraged to back themselves. Thank you to everyone who has been part of the journey ๐
Day 2 of @GTIAofficial #ChannelConEMEA favourite session was Dr Elke Geraerts on "The New Now". Soft skills are the hardest skills, and it's human in the lead, not just in the loop ๐ง
Closed with Graham Norton, interviewed by Andrew Allen, on confidence. Brilliant.

Last week, @FraggleWorks MBE joined the keynote panel at #FestivalOfEntrepreneurs, representing @fsb_uk to discuss what UK businesses need to thrive over the next decade!
Proud to see her championing small businesses and future talent! ๐
97% of MSPs say they use AI. Only 20% have real governance around it.
That gap defined the #ChannelConEMEA day one keynote.
@GTIAofficialโs answer is the Managed Intelligence Alliance: AI standards for SMBs, shaped by members.
Lead it or be led by it. #TheChannelEffect

What a heartbreaking week it has been. Sir Patrick Stewart was a friend, a colleague, and a magnificent actor. From the stage to the bridge of the Enterprise, he brought intelligence, grace, and a deep sense of humanity to everything he did. Captain Picard stood for the best of us, and so did the man who played him. I was filled with affection and admirationย for him and his work.
My heart goes out to Sunny and his family. He will be deeply missed.
Great to chat to @ClareAshford today on @BBCShropshire about a business owners view on the #budget in Shropshire. A mixed bag. Positive support for our high streets & young founders encouraging entrepreneurship. Not much for established small businesses like ours to help us grow
