Co-owner of the multi award winning mobile technology company, Active Digital. Leader for women in business & building confident girls. My professional journey has navigated me through the changing world of mobile telecoms for the last twenty years. We identified a gap in the marketplace back in 1996 as there wasn't a strong B2B mobile provider that was delivering both excellent value and customer experience, so we built a business on these foundations. Over the years, I have used my expertise to focus on leadership, customer experience and building award winning teams. Our company commitment to delivering an exceptional level of customer experience in an industry renown for poor customer service has led to a number of European and global awards. Active Digital, which I co-own and operate with my brother, Richard Groves, now employs 30 staff, with offices in Kent, London and Dublin. We remain the only Telefonica O2 direct partner in the UK to win a global award for customer experience. I have been officially recognised for my success by Growing Business magazine and was awarded '35 under 35' in Management Today magazine in 2010 as featured in The Times. I have also won awards at Kent Women in Business Awards.Using my business knowledge, I now write and contribute for Changeboard, Training Journal, First Women, Huffington Post, Business Growth and InStyle UK. Furthermore, I am a regular guest contributor for BBC Radio Kent.I am passionate about business and inspired to give my clients an exceptional customer experience through any product or solution my organisation provides. I understand the importance of happy employees and work hard to get the very results from my team and my company. I always strive to do the best in everything I do and am driven to succeed in all business ventures.In Spring 2020, I have co-created We are Girls in Sport with Caroline Kings. A global platform to inspire more girls across the globe to find a sport they enjoy to improve their physical and mental wellbeing.

Author And SpeakerJo Wimble-Groves Nov 2009 - PresentLondon, United KingdomWith twenty seven years business experience under my belt, I wanted to start sharing my story to help other women thrive in the workplace. I believe that my personal success comes from focusing on my natural skills as a woman. Women make exceptional, natural leaders. Why? Because women have great talents like networking, collaboration, multi-tasking, empathy, inclusion of others and sharing knowledge.I want to support more women to either get back to work after taking time out to have a family, or just helping them to find their inner confidence to take an opportunity and move up to more senior positions. More women want the opportunity to lead a team but they are unsure how to get there, which is where I can add support and guidance. As a renown keynote speaker, I am able to talk on a number of topics including:-- The Briefcase Story- The Confidence Jacket- Women in Leadership- Building Confidence in Girls - Women in STEMIf you are looking for a speaker for an event, I am registered on a number of speaker agencies, but you can find more information on www.jowimblegroves.co.ukIn addition to my speaking work, I am a writer & contributor for: Guardian CareersChangeboardTraining JournalBusiness GrowthInStyle UK MagazineMother & Baby Magazine First Women Huffington Post ParentsSelfish MotherBrit MumsTots100
