Could it be that my thinking is causing these results, rather than it being my actions that are resulting in the outcome? There’s food for thought. Change and transformation start with you and your mindset.

This week on the Power Of Women podcast, Di explores this possibility with Michelle Stanton, Founder and CEO of Complete Success. Michelle is the former CEO of her family’s 80-year-old business Bevilles Jewellers. Stepping in the position of Bevilles’ CEO at the height of the Global Financial Crisis was the perfect storm. Plagued with feelings of self-doubt and fear, and the onus of responsibility to all stakeholders in the chain, Michelle dedicated 1000’s of hours to finding a better way – changing her thinking – and ultimately leading the company out of receivership, driving exceptional growth and orchestrating a lucrative sale to a global multinational.

Listen to the podcast to hear how she did it - but more importantly, learn about how the transformational code can apply to YOU.
