About NOW Group?

 

This Networking Community was founded on a set of core values and a deeper intuition that Business owners could really benefit from a unique Business play space to express their genius. An environment to journey through their development with some key fixtures and relationships that facilitate the goals and the vision along the way!

 

So rather than offering a membership to a single group with limited reach and a narrow scope for professional development. We are aiming to create an eco-system, thats diverse, deep and agile. 

 

NOW, we are well on our way with 100% growth last year we aim to go 500% in 2025!  Our goal is not to strive for absolute scale but to cut a balance between scale and quality so our members can grow together and feel a connection to the culture we are developing and the whole.

 

This Vision has been driven thanks to many interviews, our own experiences, data collated form our time in legacy Business Networks and the unveiling business landscape of the 21st Century. So we are truly tying to creating something that pushes networking forwards! 

Chris White - Director

Business development has been a rapid experience for Chris. Having constructed a broad knowledge and skillset in Human Psychology, Health and performance Coaching. All undergirded by a military background with a  Communications Electronics Engineering tradecraft. You could say Chris has a unique drive and knack at spotting how things work.

As a coach he leveraged this to discover his clients deepest contribution and potential. The goal was always to help them lead maximally fulfilling lives. That same goal is embedded into NOW Group. 

His 15 years in the Royal Air Force (RAF) as an Engineer, took Chris all over the globe including, Italy, Iraq, South America. But a calling pulled him away from Electronics Engineering. All this experience has etched in a worldly character that grounds his entrepreneurial mindset in the deepest  values. 

Following his heart in 2016, he ventured into the health and fitness industry as a PT and Health Coach. Seeking to impact lives directly. Although the work was rewarding there was a sense more meaningful and effective ways to support people could be engineered.

This led him to study psychology, human behaviour and to deep dive into AI Health Technology. Finding his true passions along the way and discovering he is a real connector right down to his very genes!   

Over the past 7 years, working with over 600 Health and PD clients, Coaching business leaders and hundreds of Allied health professionals. Impacting people at every level, stronger minds, stronger bodies and stronger businesses emerged.  

During this time Chris was always in Networking groups they provided key support to his client acquisiton. This journey shaped Chris's vision for NOW, that will move networking well into the 21st Century. That Visions North Star is to create the most valued networking system in Oceania and rise to 1000 member's in record time. 

Client referral is our 'North Star Metric' we've distilled down to this leading indicator as it signifies: Marketing, Delivery and Customer experience are operating at such a level our community can't help but refer connections into it and that the NOW difference is alive and well! 

Value, Value, Value.
