The 18-07 Story

18-07 started when 3 people met for a coffee. We were talking about how support for people throughout our careers was not adequate.

As the 3 of us were sitting there in the park, on a sunny day in June, we discovered that we not only shared common values and motivations but also we all shared a birthday. So we decided to set up 18-07 to help people throughout the entire life cycle of their careers.

And so our manifesto was born. What does 18-07 stand for?

  • Having someone to speak to.
  • Having someone to talk through problems and come up with solutions.
  • Having someone to share successes.
  • Having a sounding board.
  • Having someone to be completely honest with them, however difficult that may be.
  • To help coach, train and mentor.
  • And, vitally, to have someone who was impartial without worry of ramifications.

Whether it be how to manage teams, how to manage your manager, how to manage change, how to present yourself in interviews, how to network or how to develop business. 18-07 can help.

These are all our core beliefs.​ We are there with you all the way. Potential Realised.

“Everyone needs a Coach.”

Bill Gates – Former CEO and Chairman of Microsoft
