Leigh Westfield – Owner and Director of L Westfield Financial Solutions – is an Evolve peer group member
Before I joined Evolve, a peer group is not something I ever contemplated doing. To be honest, I didn’t buy into them in the past. I’m quite stubborn and didn’t give myself the chance to fully understand what they try to do.
The idea of joining a peer group was quite daunting at first, because I didn’t know what to expect. But I’ve done about seven or eight with Evolve now and I take something away from every single one of them. It’s helping me to help my clients, it makes me think more clearly and in slightly different ways. This can only benefit my clients because it’s me adding value to them.
Now, when I meet people who haven’t joined a peer group I try and persuade them to try one. From among a lot of business owners I deal with, I know of a few who would really benefit from it. People are different; each have their own ideas about how they should run their business but I regularly persuade people that it’s something they should give a go.
Being part of an Evolve peer group goes beyond just the business aspect. It makes me more confident in understanding different elements of both business and myself. I’ve now got a totally different outlook on personal health and wellbeing and I’m just so much more relaxed when I’m with my clients. I just think differently; I think more positively.
