Paul Allsopp spent the senior part of his career inside BT’s property business — one of the largest corporate estates in the UK — before leaving to run his own consultancy. That combination, big-organisation discipline followed by the realities of working for himself, is what he writes about.
He is a long-standing contributor to Agile.org.uk, where he writes about business agility, leadership and organisational change — challenging conventional thinking and exploring how organisations can adapt, innovate and thrive rather than just survive.
For BusyBusiness he brings that big-company experience down to small-business scale: leading a first hire, changing how a team works without breaking it, negotiating like a corporate buyer, and the consultancy lessons that apply to a five-person business as much as a fifty-thousand-person one.
