1. Describe a typical day in the life of Kirsty Chadwick
My typical day is jam-packed with meetings and teleconferences, engaging with our customers and my team. Travelling is usually somewhere within the typical day as well.
2. Can you give a short description of your business?
The Training Room Online is a learning technology company, with a strong focus on the design and development of digital learning solutions.
We are a highly creative and talented team of 80 people, who enjoy the challenge of delivering cutting edge and quality learning experiences.

I am very proud of my team and how much we have developed over the past 5 years. We are impacting and changing people’s lives on a daily basis which is a very empowering feeling.
4. What, in your opinion, do you think makes a good leader?
Honesty, the ability to delegate, great communication skills, commitment and a positive attitude are essential to being a good leader, you also need to lead by example.
5. What do you consider to be the highlight of your career?
There have been a number of career defining moments, but I think launching TTRO and seeing its growth and success over the past 6 years has been a very special part of an ongoing journey.
I do believe, however, that the best is still to come.
6. What drives you to succeed?
I am passionate about what I do and totally committed to educating people.
7. How do you manage to balance family life and business?
This is one of my greatest challenges and I haven’t cracked it yet.
