1. What made you start Xenonex?
I have always aspired to set up and run my own business and my background as a coach and consultant provided a fantastic platform to launch Xenonex. Working across different sectors, and having insight of both internal and external coaching strategies, meant that I was able to offer a unique proposition to our clients. However, fundamentally, it was proving to myself that I could!
