Katie’s Mastermind9 Story
After nine successful years, Katie successfully sold her HR consultancy. But getting there wasn’t easy.
Though the business was thriving, she felt isolated without business partners to strategise with.
Mastermind9 provided honest conversations and fierce critics who challenged her assumptions, helping her grow by 35% and win Breathe HR Partner of the Month in her final year.
Katie’s business was doing well, but she felt isolated after her business partners retired. She missed having peers who understood the challenges of entrepreneurship.
“I thought I’d be fine. But I missed them more than I ever expected. Suddenly, it was all on me, and I had no one to talk things through with.”
Making decisions alone was difficult. She avoided hard choices for too long, and worried about the impact on her team.
She had no one to really speak to about her business and get solid advice.
But Mastermind9 gave her peers who are also in business who truly understand the challenges of being a business owner.
“The position is that you all have the individual’s best interests at heart, and it’s about helping them to overcome what the challenges might be.”
Mastermind9 became Katie’s board of advisors, providing honest conversations that challenged her thinking. The group pushed her to make difficult team decisions that ultimately improved everything.
When personal circumstances led her to sell, they helped her navigate finding the right buyer with the right cultural fit, ensuring a smooth transition while still achieving remarkable growth.
“You start explaining things and suddenly realise, why haven’t I done this before? It’s tough but supportive, and by the end, you walk away with a real bond and a whole new perspective.”
“
“After 9 years, I grew my HR consultancy by 35%, won Breathe HR Partner of the Month, and sold to the right buyer. Mastermind9 gave me the peers and honest conversations I needed to make it happen.”
