A focused activation for senior teams to resolve operational friction, validate core values, and establish clear standards for high-performance collaboration.We’re on a mission to end workplace apathy in
high-growth businesses
We know firsthand how rapid growth creates operational chaos.
When exceptional individual contributors step into leadership roles without support or training, execution stalls.
When brilliant practitioners get promoted into management without support or training, execution breaks down. Team management becomes inconsistent and critical conversations get dodged. These communication bottlenecks all kill the momentum and pace.
The relaity is that to scale a business successfully, building people manager capability isn't just a ‘nice-to-have ’; it's the foundation of sustainable growth.
Lasting leadership development goes way beyond tick-dull classroom-style learning. It requires brave conversations, practical toolkits, and structured peer-to-peer accountability.
That's why we embed simple, repeatable management frameworks that empower your leaders to navigate tough performance conversations, remove friction, and protect your culture as you scale.
Why Times Ten?
Because we’ve sat in your seat and built businesses at scale, with a background spanning high-growth operations, from scaling Wonder London from £ 2- 24M to resetting capabilities for 750 leaders at the John Lewis Partnership, we bypass generic theory and get straight to the root cause.
We deliver targeted, coaching-led interventions that eliminate manager friction so your people and your business can grow together.How we do it…

Hello, I’m Zoe…
…I’m passionate about helping fast-growing businesses eliminate the friction of operational chaos by building leaders who actually know how to lead.
Before founding Times Ten, I spent 12 years in marketing operations at Toyota and Lexus, followed by four years as Growth & Strategy Partner at Wonder London, where I helped lay the operational and leadership foundations to scale the business from £2M to £24M turnover.
Most recently, I’ve played a pivotal role in resetting management capabilities for 750 leaders across retail and HQ at the John Lewis Partnership, achieving a 91% advocacy rate for sustainable culture transformation.
My sweet spot? Unlocking bottlenecks, unifying senior teams, and turning ‘accidental managers’ into confident, high-performing leaders who drive real commercial impact. No fluff, just practical toolkits, brave conversations, and lasting behavioural change.
I lead and design every engagement. For large-scale rollouts and multi-cohort programmes, I partner with a hand-picked network of senior associate coaches and facilitators.
