About Charizma

With experience across Australia, the UK and Europe, I guide companies to streamline workflows, improve efficiency and expand into new markets while bridging cross-cultural gaps.
I specialise in international strategy, operational efficiency and niche markets such as creative industries and professional sports. I focus on practical, results-driven solutions that reduce complexity and support decision makers in implementing high value initiatives.
🔹 How I Can Help:
Business Operations & Strategy: Optimising workflows and internal processes to improve efficiency, reduce complexity, and support sustainable growth.
International Expansion & Cross-Border Collaboration: Guiding French businesses in entering new markets, especially English-speaking ones, and ensuring smooth collaboration across teams and cultures.
Niche & Creative Industries: Advising SMEs, creative businesses, and professionals on operational strategy, growth planning, and international opportunities. Most recently, I supported an SME providing end-of-career services for former professional football players in the UK and the Netherlands, helping them structure operations and expand their business internationally.
