CIRCLE Leadership • May 01, 2019
The founder and Managing Director of CIRCLE Leadership, Mark Bayley-Smyth has been accepted onto the NatWest Entrepreneur Accelerator programme, joining a fantastic community of entrepreneurs.
Gordon Merrylees, Managing Director Entrepreneurship, NatWest said “We are delighted to welcome Mark Bayley-Smyth and CIRCLE Leadership on to the programme in Manchester. With our unique offering that provides the right environment, coaching and networks, we help entrepreneurs start, scale and succeed every day. We look forward to seeing Mark and the CIRCLE Leadership team engage with the programme and grow their business with us.”
Mark is proud to have been accepted onto the programme. Along with this community of like-minded individuals, the programme provides a series of workshops on a wide range of topics from funding to managing risk. This provides an opportunity for entrepreneurs to move away from working in the business and to focus on the growth and long-term development of their exciting ventures.
Alison Rose, CEO of commercial and private banking at NatWest, said: “As the UK’s biggest supporter of small business, we understand that helping businesses succeed, not just through traditional lending but with full wraparound care, connectivity and know-how, is crucial if we want a strong economy.”

Success in business is measured by a variety of different attributes. Success can mean hitting a specific profit margin or any number of other performance goals. But no matter how you measure success within your business, you need the right people to help you achieve those goals. At one time, the notion of success was dedicated to the idea that you had to have a sole leader in position to drive the team to their goals. However, this notion is no longer an option for most businesses.
