About our Guest!
Carmen Williams is a machine. She is actually not happy unless she has a list of things to smash.
However, the difference between Carmen and a lot of other people is that she is a mastermind at getting others to do stuff for her. She just realizes the power in it; the power of support to propel a business forward.
Even when she was a self-proclaimed “baby business owner”, she employed Noe in the Philippines to work part-time for her.
She may have been doing it tough (as a single mum with a business less than six months old), but she knew she couldn’t grow if she tried to do everything herself.
And spending 4 hours a day marketing herself on LinkedIn, looking after her clients and handling the admin ALL herself was not her idea of fun (or very clever). So she invested in her first VA.
Fast forward a few years, and with Carmen often leading the way, Global Teams has built a team of 14 superstars in the Philippines and is helping other businesses do the same. (Carmen is always finding new things we can get support with. Video editing, social media marketing anyone? :)).
Carmen and I are very different but have always liked and respected each other. She’s brave and funny and annoying at times (please can’t we look at the bigger picture and just dream?! :)).
She was a gifted child, was fast-tracked through school and ended up at university at 16, on her way to becoming a scientist (and getting top marks of course!)
In her 20s she was coordinating enterprise-wise change in the healthcare sector (again getting people to do stuff for the greater good).
She has been instrumental in helping business owners get support and in doing so in creating the success of Global Teams.
