Andrew Miller

Business Enjoyment Coach & Author

Andrew Miller is an ex-insolvency practitioner, who now dedicates himself to helping business owners be successful and actually enjoy the journey at the same time. Through working with company owners who were in the process of losing everything, he became acutely aware of the emotional connection that exists between a business and its owner, something that is not always recognised or appreciated. Consequently, Andrew believes that 'you', 'your environment' and the interaction between the two should be looked at as a whole, rather than in isolation. Andrew works with business owners and their team to get all three areas right – which then allows you to truly enjoy what you do on a day to day basis.
