Why us?

Ownership and accountability

We take pride in what we do. And stand behind the bold decisions we make—taking full ownership and accountability. You can count on us to be fully involved, adaptable and open at all times. Building trust and long lasting friendships along the way, makes what we do even more rewarding.

Our story

We’ve come a long way since our founder Jools, turned the spark of an idea—to design a cohesive approach, across PMO, project and change management—into a purposeful change business, delivering tailor-made services and solutions. In seven years, we’ve developed into thought leaders, influencing the way people think and deliver business change. We’ve become the link within organizations—connecting, collaborating and empathizing with the people that actually make change happen. We act as the glue, that holds everything together.

Bringing it all to life is a mix of talented people. All highly-skilled and easy to work with: from change professionals, project managers, consultants and

communication specialists to data analysts, coaches, keynote speakers, IT professionals, PMO practitioners and digital content creators. We’re all driven by a common purpose—to create positive and inspiring change.

Our tailor-made services and solutions are integrated and delivered seamlessly—in-house or remotely. And we’re always learning, growing, innovating and harnessing new technologies and trends.

In a nutshell, we help businesses ‘change better’, and work to empower individuals and teams along the way.

People tell me I’m very animated and passionate when talking about projects and change management. It’s that passion which gave me the courage to open RedWizard seven years ago.

Poorly managed change, changed my life. It’s the reason I left my 20-year teaching career. And what gave me the motivation to join my twin sister Jools on her extraordinary journey—to build a purposeful change business, helping businesses ‘change better’. Now, as a qualified Prosci change practitioner, I work alongside talented leaders, helping to bring their people and strategy together.

After a long career in after-sales service, technical training and project management, I decided a few years ago to dive head-on into change management. I wanted, even needed, to help other people avoid the many mistakes and hardships that I had witnessed or endured myself over the years. For me, the famous transition we all go through in times of change is like a long, dark tunnel. And my job is to shine a light along that tunnel until we reach the end.

I’m the guy responsible for turning IT requirements into reality, whether that’s fixing an email issue or building new functionality into a system. I’ve had the opportunity to work for some fantastic businesses, helping me assimilate a wide variety of IT and business knowledge.
James Bellshaw
Technical Solutions Wizard RedWizard
Throughout my career, my goal has been to help businesses and people-focused leaders move towards a total talent management approach–enabling business strategy and optimizing talent sources, work styles and partnerships. Some of the best minds in the industry recognize that a huge disconnect remains between suppliers, service providers, and talent. And it was important to me that, at Chateau Consulting, we solve these critical issues from a raw and authentic point of view.

I’ve always been fascinated by the power of good design. It’s what drove me to become a commercial designer 20 years ago. And what motivates me to create simple and impactful online experiences today. I’m proud and committed to helping my clients generate more business through their website and digital marketing platforms. From web-design and UX to marketing, I love what I do—no two days are ever the same!
Ray Dale
Founder, UX Designer & Consultant The SeedMill
My background in the performing arts—ballet and opera—taught me the importance of creating a strong emotional connection with an audience. Bringing these skills into the business world enhanced my ability to create engaging, authentic and meaningful content. From storytelling, visual design and copywriting to customer/user experience and corporate communications—I love creating insightful cross-channel content. And aim to reach hearts first—only then, will minds follow.
