Meet Rombourne tenant The Change Agent
The Change Agent shares its experience of renting a
Swindon-based serviced office from Rombourne.
Shirley Hensher, The Change
Agent, is a personal coach that
helps business owners and other
working professionals to get a
fresh perspective on their life in
business. Having had a varied,
challenging career that includes
working in economic consultancy,
financial services and as a
freelance project manager, Shirley
draws on her past experiences
to help all forms of corporate
professionals from entrepreneurs
to employees, reduce their
stress levels and increase their
motivation. Shirley’s coaching
helps clients to design career
paths which better fit with their
values, personality and aspirations.
In April 2018, Shirley relocated
her business to Rombourne’s
Kingston House in Swindon. Six
months on from the move, she
shares her experience of her new
office space and her number one
tip for office ettiquette.
Why did you decide to base
your office in Swindon?
I live in Wroughton and wanted
an office outside of my home
that was easily accessible for
both myself and my clients.
Junction 16 (which is located
close to Kingston House) is an
ideal location as my clients and
networking groups are located
along the M4 corridor.
Why did you choose
Rombourne?
It was important for me to be
based somewhere I looked
forward to going to each day, and
that I had an office I could make
my own. As well as the location,
I chose Rombourne as I really
liked the feel of the building. Not
only is Kingston House bright
and airy, but the team are very
friendly and welcoming.
Kingston House is always
looked after which gives a great
impression to clients, and Danielle
the centre manager, is always
looking for ways to make the
building more comfortable and
meet her clients’ needs.
How has Rombourne
helped your business grow?
The team at Rombourne have
been really supportive. Not only
do we follow each other on social
media, but they have supported
me at local networking events and
introduced me to new businesses.
I recently held a free workshop
at Kingston House that was hosted
jointly with Rombourne. This gave
me the chance to showcase what
I do best, at no extra cost to me
and the workshop delegates got
to experience the facilities and
atmosphere that Rombourne
offers. Delegates really enjoyed the
workshop and were impressed by
the centre.
What’s your number one
office ettiquette tip?
As a serviced office client, it’s
important to remember that
everything you do and say in
a shared space can reflect on
you and your business. What
impression will the other
businesses have of you if you were
to repeatedly leave the shared
kitchen looking like London after
the Blitz?
A serviced office is a business
network of its own. Make sure
you’re a welcome addition and
who knows how your business
might develop?
