About Gary
Experience you can lean on.
Gary brings a wealth of experience from roles as chief executive and managing director, in both the corporate world and running SMEs. He left a very successful FTSE 250 company, where he had grown sales by 400%, to take on a small developing business listed on the Alternative Investment Market.
Looking for a more satisfying career helping other owners succeed, he joined ActionCOACH UK in 2007. He has since become one of the top business coaches in the UK: he reached the ActionCOACH Worldwide Top 100 in 2012, ranks number 3 in the UK in the Top 100 Club, and was inducted into the ActionCOACH Hall of Fame in 2021.

Straightpoint
Dave Ayling, founder of Waterlooville manufacturer Straightpoint, needed to realign the business so the right people were in the right roles. Working with Gary, he saw a difference within six months and major results within the year. Straightpoint was approached by Crosby in 2018 and sold in 2019, giving Dave time with his family and the chance to build his dream home abroad.
