Four female colleagues unite to start innovative business consultancy

By Happy Business - 28th November 2023

More than 50 of Cornwall’s business founders, leaders and supporters gathered in Truro recently for the launch of a new business consultancy with big ambitions: Happy Business.

The female-led business is the brainchild of four former colleagues – Allyson Glover, Debs Horner, Beckie Pascoe and Rebecca Polson. They believe everyone has a right to be happy at work, and it’s their mission to use happiness as a driver for real, tangible results for businesses, their founders and teams, across the UK.

The four founders met while working at Unlocking Potential, where they helped thousands of businesses to develop, recruit and expand. In their previous careers they have worked in FTSE100 and FTSE250 companies, across a range of sectors and have run their own businesses. Each bring their own expertise and specialisms including strategy, leadership, operations, project management, HR, recruitment, marketing, and communications. 

Debs Horner, Co-Founder said: “Our business offers three main services, the Happiness Blueprint reunites the business and personal aspirations of founders into a clear strategy and actionable plan. With Happy Team we enable coveted cultures, strategic and practical support for your current team and effective recruitment strategies. And our ‘Rockstars’ offer businesses the chance to bring in specialist expertise on a short-term basis to plug skills gaps, increase capacity, or deliver specific projects."

Allyson Glover, Co-Founder, added: "We understand the continuing pressure business owners face, to do more with less, and that there are times when it feels like the business is taking control, rather than the other way around. We're more than just consultants; we're a critical friend and work collaboratively with businesses to drive positive change and re-energise teams."

With a number of successful client projects completed, and others underway, the team are now booking initial meetings with potential clients during December, to start in the New Year.
