Gillian Andale, at the helm of Osprey, is fervently dedicated to supporting entrepreneurial pairs who value the intricate balance between their business pursuits and family life. With a rich career spanning over 40 years and experiences across 40 countries, Gillian's expertise is unparalleled.
Entitled the Relationship Harmony Formula, this service takes a holistic and family-centric approach. It emphasizes aspects like personal Identity, Aligning with Shared Goals (Their North Star), and Balancing Individual and Joint Responsibilities (Staying in Their Lanes). Specific business challenges being experienced are also addressed with solutions for implementation identified. This program is particularly designed for business owners who navigate the complexities of blending their work and family lives. It is offered through engaging mentorship sessions, both virtually and in-person, catering to businesses with an annual turnover exceeding £1 million.
One of the unique aspects of working with Gillian on the Relationship Harmony Formula is the recognition that business entrepreneurial couples do not have time or headspace to do exercises (also known as homework!) outside the mentoring sessions. This has been a key principle when designing the Formula and therefore each session is a collaboration to get results and build towards the outcomes desired. Also, the pace of working with Gillian is outcomes based not time or number of sessions limited.
Gillian’s illustrious career has seen many achievements, including authoring two Amazon best-sellers and being a sought-after international speaker. Her 25 years of dedication to studying human behaviour deeply inform her consultancy approach, which is also influenced by her personal experience of nurturing a large blended family and co-running a consultancy with her husband.
In 2018 after returning from an extensive tour of China and Japan with 60 other Entrepreneurs, Gillian moved away from large Corporate and Government contracts and refocused her efforts on uplifting small businesses, leading to Osprey’s notable success in the UK, especially among small and medium-sized firms, in the last four years.
Highlighting her belief in ongoing learning and mentorship, Gillian invested £50,000 in high-level mentorship and training for entrepreneurship and business development during the pandemic.
Gillian explains, “Osprey is committed to bringing transformative outcomes and to work with businesses who may be drowning in their own success. It is not relationship counselling and saving businesses and marriages unless that is needed, but it profoundly enriches family lives. Our consultancy has been a catalyst for significant positive changes in our client's lives, enabling them to lead a life by design (not a life by default) that benefits the entire family.”
She emphasizes the profound influence of strong, healthy relationships on the quality of family life. Osprey inspires couples to craft their ideal life and develop their businesses in ways that support and enhance their family dynamics.
Gillian Andale warmly extends an invitation to entrepreneurial couples to explore the transformative potential of Osprey’s services, embarking on a journey that promises a harmonious, fulfilling family life and a thriving business.
