16 Jan I didn’t arrive at Systems Business Coaching® by chance

I arrived there through lived experience, deep observation — and a conscious dare to do things differently.
At the centre of that path sits the foresight, courage and clarity of Beverlee Rasmussen — the creator of Systems Business Coaching®. Her work gave structure and language to something many business owners feel but struggle to articulate:
A business is not a personality.
It is a system — and when the system works, people thrive.
Beverlee’s Vision — Alive in the Work I Do
Beverlee’s dream was never about creating another coaching label.
It was about levelling the playing field for small business owners — giving them access to the same strategic thinking, systems and clarity that large organisations take for granted.
That vision lives on in my work every single day.
It lives in:
- the clients I choose to serve
- the programmes I design
- the peer communities I build
- the way I coach beyond symptoms and into structure
BigohCoaching is not an offshoot of Systems Business Coaching®.
It is a living expression of it — adapted, grounded, and applied in real communities, real businesses, and real economic conditions.
Why This Matters: The Reality for Small Businesses
Small businesses are the backbone of the economy — locally, nationally and globally.
In the UK alone:
- 9% of businesses are SMEs
- employ over 60% of the private sector workforce
- generate more than half of private sector turnover
- account for around 90% of businesses and over 50% of employment.
And yet…
Despite their value, small business owners face:
- fragmented advice
- short-term interventions
- generic “motivation” without structure
- minimal funded, joined-up support
- support is reactive, transactional, or box-ticking.
Bucking the Trend: Systems in Action
This is where Systems Business Coaching® — and BigohCoaching specifically — pushes against the grain.
Through:
- Systems Business Coaching®
- BigohCoaching Business Growth Circle
- South Lewisham Business Support Programme
- Mastermind Groups
- 1-to-1 and Group Coaching
- Support for SMEs, CICs, CIOs, founders and leaders
…we are doing something different.
We are not offering quick fixes.
We are building capability.
- We help business owners:
- replace overwhelm with clarity
- replace hustle with rhythm
- replace isolation with peer accountability
- replace guesswork with repeatable systems
This is exactly what Beverlee envisioned. Coaching that empowers, not rescues.
My Journey: From Hustle to Human-Centred Systems
Before BigohCoaching, I saw talented people burning out under the weight of their own businesses. The issue was never commitment — it was design.
Systems Business Coaching® gave me:
- the confidence to challenge hustle culture
- the discipline to coach root causes, not symptoms
- the responsibility to build environments where people can grow sustainably
I embedded this thinking into everything:
- Clarity–Confidence–Action
- FOCUS & PX5
- Growth Levers & peer accountability
- Structured delivery, not ad-hoc advice
The result?
Businesses that work with their owners — not against them.
The Impact: Engagement, Empowerment, Evolution
Success at BigohCoaching is not just financial — though many clients grow revenue, stability and confidence.
It is:
- founders who finally feel in control
- leaders who build teams instead of bottlenecks
- CICs and CIOs that strengthen governance and funding readiness
- entrepreneurs who evolve from survival mode to strategic leadership
This is systems work.
This is Beverlee’s legacy, in motion.
A Strong Invitation:
- If you are tired of carrying everything alone…
- If support has felt shallow or disconnected…
- If you know your business has more potential than your current reality allows…
This is your moment to step into systems, structure and sustained growth.
