about

I love the coast and in particular, the area in which I live, the North East of England. It’s an uncomplicated life, for the past twelve years I’ve been away from the ‘big smoke’ … and the decision to relocate my business to the North has been the best move of my career. So far. I am a writer and have a lifetime of experience in publishing and personal development. I now consider myself a specialist in helping my clients with memoirs – that could entail a biography, or simply bringing diary pages to life. I tend not to advertise my business, word of mouth has always been kind so it’s no surprise that I do spend a couple of days per week networking. Peer collaboration can be very rewarding. Therefore, if you’d like to join me fortnightly for Wednesday ZOOM or either Tuesday or Thursday for (in-person) morning coffee, please get in touch. I’d love to meet you and perhaps help in any way possible. Thank you for stopping by the website. engage, develop, grow … with Go! charliekenny@live.co.uk

    Refer you?

    So here’s the scenario… ‘Looking forward to seeing you at conference Tim.’  Says I. To which Tim’s reply was … ‘Hey, yeah but sorry I cannot make that date now, I need to be elsewhere and I don’t want to let them down.’ Let THEM down … Most of us understand that the best kind of…

    Community and the bad apple

    I had the great pleasure recently in establishing the foundation of a really vibrant business community. We’d been building this ‘Community’ for some time. All diverse professions getting to know each other. Developing the trust that comes with the relations that leads to business. We had our share of passing casual interest of course and…

  • the memory hook

    Whether you realise it or not, you already know a lot about memory hooks. You’ve been using them consciously or unconsciously since you were small… For instance: When you were in primary school, what was your best friends nickname? Where were you when “Thriller” was being played? Who you think of whenever you hear someone…

  • Faith.

    No guts, no glory … With the return of Tim Peake safely back to Terra-firma it certainly has me wondering of the courage, commitment and faith those mortals greater than I possess. Major Tim Peake and others like him from all nations should be congratulated whole-heartedly for their achievements through inner belief, faith, trust and…

    Change, get out of your way.

    Is the glass half empty or half full? Are you a positive influence or one of negativity? Do you sugarcoat things or get straight to the point? Much has been said about the best way of approaching business development or implementation of change, it can be stressful for many. Each of us have our goals…

    Choose reliable

    ‘I cannot be with you this week – can we rearrange something?’ It’s little wonder some never achieve, they’re ok when it’s a sit down for coffee or cake, but when it comes to following up in business? Trouble is, this kind of postponement has exactly the same effect on our own business. Postponement ……

  • Compass due north?

    Compass due north?

    It can be tough at the top … just ask any owner/manager. During the busy times there are simply not enough hours in the day, we’re pretty much stretched just coping, ‘making hay’ when we’re busy and when those quieter times arrive? We take the opportunity to ‘kick back’ don’t we? We embrace the ‘down…

    Meaningful emotional links ,,,

    Is the lack of the emotional connection hindering your chances for successful business growth? The ‘getting to know you’ can be tedious for some. Especially in today’s crowded business environment. “Deadlines don’t allow for emotional tedium … do they?” Take social media, most of us have experience of the ‘add,’ ‘like,’ the ‘share’ or the…
