Forward Thinking, the North's most loved business coaching firm, is expanding its board lineup in pursuit of creating an even bigger impact with the work it does in Lancashire and beyond.

With the goal of becoming ten-strong by the end of the year, the team at Forward Thinking is excited to announce the appointment of Jennie Henderson as director of customer experience, who will help spearhead the company's growth plans.

"We've been in business for five years now, and it's time to take things seriously," said Andy Henderson, the founder of Forward Thinking. "The business has a very noble cause – its best work is done with socially conscious organisations, companies who are purpose-driven, firms that want to make a difference."

Jennie Henderson, whose experience in sales and customer services management will bring a whole new dynamic to the business and its customers, is also Andy's wife of 25 years. Her role will be to ensure the journey Forward Thinking takes its clients and members on is incredible, warming, and powerful.

Jennie joined the business in March and is charged with helping the team achieve its goals – to build a business community so large and strong that it has a voice that cannot be ignored and can lobby the government for better support for small businesses.

"I just love what Andrew does and how passionate he is," Jennie Henderson said. "I can't wait to stand by his side, develop our team, and grow something special together. It's so exciting!"

Forward Thinking's award-winning Success GPS system, powered by its experienced coaches, is just one click away from providing ambitious business owners, MDs, and CEOs in Lancashire with the planning, growth, and accountability they need to feel excited about their businesses again.

"We are delighted to welcome Jennie to the team," said Andy Henderson. "I'm very proud of the team in getting to this point and look forward to Jennie making a massive difference both in the business and in its customer communities."

Jennie has joined as a board director and shareholder, and Forward Thinking's goals are nationwide growth. The company has franchise opportunities available for those interested in joining, and they have the capacity to work with more socially conscious businesses.
