Our Story
Making a way for business to grow is our tag line for a reason. Being able to come in with fresh eyes, survey the current situation and see the best way forward is something our Founder Lydia has developed over the years. The Waymaker Way offers businesses practical, logical, strategic and realistic changes that helps your business work better – not just in theory, but in the day-to-day.
The first thing you’ll notice when in conversation with our Head Waymaker, Lydia, is her generosity with our knowledge and expertise. We do that because we’re passionate about seeing businesses reach their full potential. That happens best when we share what we’ve learned on our journey. Delivering considered, unique support and forming a strong, practical partnership with you is at the heart of The Waymaker Way.
We match your dedication to your business’ future by giving you the support, tools and expertise to make it happen. We’re committed to building a strong community of successful, inspired business owners.
We’re here to make business easier for you.
Our Values
What Makes Us Waymakers Tick
01. Talent
We believe that you have gifts and talents, and our mission is to uncover them and work alongside you to support the growth of your business. This ethos applies equally to our team and as a ‘Waymaker’, we play to our strengths and actively develop our superpowers for both personal and professional growth.
02. MIght
In everything we do, we do it with all our might. When we are working with you, we will bring all of our expertise, empathy, brain power, attention, compassion and experience. No matter the size or significance of the task, we give all our might when supporting you or each other. We are stronger as a team that way.
03. Service
Delivering a professional and reliable service goes without saying in our book. We will always go the extra mile to deliver above and beyond. We are here to serve you with practical support. We serve each other too, giving a helping hand is second nature and means we can pull a dream team from across the business to get the job done.
04. Productivity
We believe we were made to work and rest. Working to the best of our abilities means we can rest, satisfied we’ve done a great job. Resting and finding our joy helps us replenish our mind, body and soul, ready to be productive at work. We add purpose into our understanding of work hard, play hard. Balance and stamina are more highly prized than burn out and winning at any cost.
05. Wholeness
Every business is unique and has different needs, that’s why we offer tailored solutions that align with your specific goals. We don’t just focus on the work; we see the whole you. We also see our team as individuals, with full lives that do not stop when the clock starts. Bringing our whole selves to work means we’re valued and appreciated, loyal to the team and you.

A Plan to Suit You
We don’t believe in a one-size-fits-all approach and understand every client is different, and so is every project. That’s why we shape our pricing around what you actually need.
We define the scope of our projects clearly, so we’re always on the same page and there are no surprises. We agree on expectations, deliverables and outcomes, in an honest and open conversation. We know things inevitably evolve and change and having a close partnership with you means we discuss those things as they unfold, and, if necessary, re-fining the plan as we go.
