"I first met Toni Shawley on a course that she ran for Business Link in Hampshire. Toni is one of those people who has a good rapport with anyone she meets so that we seven ladies on this course immediately were put at ease; Toni takes a personal interest in every lady she meets on a course and so soon makes friends. We still meet up for a meal together on a regular basis nearly 2 years later!

A successful business woman in her own right, she praises ladies for their talent and encourages one in those areas one is less confident. Her positive approach is endemic and again one always feels better after speaking to her. Her seminars are organized, informative and very helpful so that all aspects or running a business are covered including the pitfalls. She inspires confidence and is good at making suggestions and alternatives to those ladies not sure which direction to take in business. Group discussions are encouraged so that collective talents and ideas are pooled
