Connected For Impact
The impact, in our partners’ words.
'Traction Consulting, led by Chris, has played a key role in supporting the delivery of Lidl GB’s agricultural strategy, bringing deep agricultural and commercial insights to key business projects. Chris integrated seamlessly within the Lidl team and worked closely with the supply base to bridge strategic objectives with on-the-ground realities, delivering practical, high-quality outputs at pace.'
Lidl GB
'Traction is a young vibrant company delivering food chain solutions for Glastry Farm's growth strategy.
Chris has been actively involved in shaping and delivering our growth plans, quickly understanding our fully integrated farm to scoop model and working alongside us to develop distribution channels, strengthen route to market and build strategic partnerships that support long term, sustainable growth.'
Will Taylor,
Owner
'From my perspective working with Chris has allowed us to hone down on what we as a business can offer and it has helped to put focus on how we can deliver a new service line to a broad range of clients.'
Andrew Wraith, Director
Traction supported the UK Agri-Tech Centre on a short, fast-paced project where we needed to quickly bring together internal and external evidence to sharpen our thinking on supply chain engagement. Their involvement was critical to meeting our deadlines and maintaining momentum.
Traction engaged stakeholders quickly, bringing focus, clarity and energy, and helped us move forward on some very real challenges. Their insight into supply networks enabled us to reach a far broader audience than would have been possible through internal effort alone. The ideas that emerged were clearer, more refined and more precise as a result.
Andrew Wraith, Director
'Working with Traction has been a catalyst for Pinion Global Network expansion. Their ability to open doors across countries and cultures has helped build our international relationships in ways we simply could not have achieved on our own.'
Jeanne Bernick,
Principal, Client Chief Officer
'When Chris and I first set out to create the Leaders Club, the aim was simple but ambitious: to build a space where senior leaders could step away from the day‑to‑day, think differently, and have honest, high‑quality conversations with peers who genuinely understood their world.
Working with Chris elevated that vision. What changed almost immediately was the clarity and intent behind everything we did. Chris has a rare ability to balance structure with warmth; he worked with me to stop this being a ‘wouldn’t it be great if’ idea to becoming a reality.'
