About
Based on a strongly held belief that a business's success is driven by its people, Scott founded Inspiring Change in 2017.
Based in Dublin, we work with clients in Ireland and further afield in Europe to help them build brilliant cultures.
We have a small but experienced team and, where necessary, we bring in the skills and experience we need from a board of trusted associates and partners. This allows us to be more agile and create teams that perfectly match the exact needs of our clients.
"People are at the heart of success in any team. And that's no different in business - they're just much bigger teams".
