about metrix

Founded by consultant and Executive Coach Ian Sheppard, metrix business consulting is driven by a vision to empower individuals and develop organisations across all sectors. Ian brings a wealth of experience and expertise to metrix, working to deliver his mission to foster growth, facilitate transformation, and enable continuous improvement in people and organisations.

the metrix vision

Ian’s journey in organisational development began with a commitment to support clinical and adjacent businesses in the optometry sector, in which he worked for nearly 30 years. More recently, he has been supporting Third Sector organisations including international NGOs and charities, as well as working with professionals from many other sectors. Over the years, Ian has developed expertise in Operations development, startup support, performance management, and Executive Coaching and Mentoring.

our unique approach

What sets metrix apart is a personal, bespoke approach to my clients and the challenges they face. Rather than offering boilerplate or off-the-shelf solutions, I take time to understand your unique situation, your goals, and your existing strengths and weaknesses. This ensures that my work is always tailored to you and your organisational needs. I focus on building effective relationships with self-employed professionals, solopreneurs, sole traders, Directors and Executives.

At metrix, our commitment goes beyond consulting. Ian really values long-term professional relationships such as Coaching and Mentoring - there is so much mutual learning to be found, and so much shared value in the process. His work will always be focused on your current needs, priorities, challenges and achievements.
