From People Headaches to Thriving Teams
Your business is full of ambition. Your team is capable. So why does leadership feel like an endless battle?
At Aspirin Business Solutions, we've spent over 20 years helping ambitious leaders like you transform people challenges into your greatest competitive advantage. We believe that when teams thrive, businesses thrive - and that success doesn't have to come at the cost of your sanity.
15 minutes, no commitment
"The ultimate business dynamite team! If you are a business leader on a mission, you need some Aspirin in your life."
Samantha Acton, Director | Domestic Angels Cleaning Franchise
You Know This Feeling...
Leading a business demands everything: strategic vision, financial acumen, countless decisions. But the one thing that keeps most leaders awake at night isn't the market - it's their people.
Your team is capable. You trust them. Yet somehow:
Firefighting is the default. Every day brings a new crisis instead of strategic progress. You're managing problems, not building for the future.
Difficult conversations loom. Feedback feels risky. Underperformance persists. Conflict simmers beneath the surface.
Leadership feels lonely. You're making tough decisions in isolation, with no peer network who truly understands the weight of responsibility.
Your culture is unclear. Everyone's trying hard, but there's no shared language, no collective clarity about what you're building together.
And here's the thing: this is costing you. Not just in productivity lost or roles unfilled, but in your own energy, your enjoyment of the business you built, and your ability to focus on what matters most.
You didn't start this business to manage chaos. You started it because you believed in something better.
Here's What Most Leaders Miss
Leadership isn't about having all the answers. It's about building an environment where your team can thrive.
The difference between struggling teams and high-performing ones isn't talent - it's the quality of leadership and the support systems around it. When leaders know how to give feedback that motivates, when they have a network of peers who understand their challenges, and when teams genuinely understand what drives each other, everything changes.
That's where we come in. We don't do generic training or tick-box exercises. Whether you need to develop specific leadership skills, connect with a community of ambitious peers, or help your team build genuine understanding and trust - we give you the tools, insights, and support that create real transformation.

We're Not Just Another Training Company - We're Family
When you work with Aspirin, you're not dealing with corporate hierarchy or faceless consultants. You're working with a family who's built this business around one guiding principle: that when you invest in people with honesty, integrity, and genuine care, extraordinary things happen.
We Understand - We've Lived It
We're not theorists. Susannah Brade-Waring, our founder, helped grow a technology company from startup to £10 million management buyout. She's navigated the same challenges you face - hiring, culture, scaling, tough decisions. Her insight isn't from a textbook; it's from the trenches. That's why our programmes feel practical, not academic.
We Focus On People, Not Processes
We blend decades of research in psychology, motivation, and leadership with practical business insight. Our diagnostic tools reveal what's really holding your team back.
We don't apply a template; we uncover what matters for your business, your team, your challenges.
We Actually Care About Your Success
We measure success by whether your culture shifts, your team performs, and you enjoy running your business again. We've turned down business because it wasn't the right fit. We give charities discounts because we believe impact matters more than profit. We mentor local leaders for free through the Dorset Mentoring Scheme. That's not just marketing, that's who we are.
Meet the team behind Aspirin: Susannah, Heath, and Kyle. Susannah, our founder and 'Business Motivator', is one of just seven senior global Motivational Maps® practitioners and designs all our programmes. Heath, our 'Client Whisperer', brings 30+ years in client relationships and keeps operations running smoothly. Kyle, our 'Digital Overlord', joined at 16 and has transformed how we work - leading our digital innovation and driving our successful pivot to online delivery.
Together, they're "the ultimate business dynamite team", individually strong, but stronger together.
