Business Design and Growth Advisory

the Sproutling

We humanize growth .

Extraordinary ventures inspire employees and customers alike.

People are at the heart of every business.

Most businesses, however, make decisions based solely on what they are capable of doing, without considering what customers really want, what their employees need, and how their decision-making may impact the ecosystem they are operating in.

The relationship with all stakeholders should be an essential and integral part of business planning and should be consciously designed, continually adapted, and improved.

Stakeholder trust is the foundation of a company’s long-term success.

Hi, I am Yvonne.
Founder of The Sproutling.

“The Sproutlings Business Design and Growth advisory helps meet both the needs of the business and the value it wants to bring into people’s lives.”

I have always been naturally inclined toward growing businesses, whether it's within a multinational organisation, a scaling venture, supporting small entrepreneurs, or building my slow fashion brand.

With over 20 years of experience in international business and having lived on 3 continents, I have gained valuable insights and perspectives. On many business occasions, I noticed something vital was missing: the human element.
I've seen disengaged employees, frustrated managers, let-down customers, and overall decision-making often driven by profit and shareholder value.

This has motivated me to work towards fundamentally bettering the way we do business and changing how we think about success.

I believe a people-first approach is not a choice; it is a strategic imperative. Businesses that prioritise trust and cultivate purpose-inspired connections consistently outshine and outperform all others.


Businesses must be good.


In an ethical as well as in a business sense.


I launched The Sproutling, a Business Design advisory that intersects Growth Strategy, Brand Positioning, and Experience Design.

We enable businesses to achieve sustainable profitability while making a meaningful impact beyond financial gains by creating connection-driven, purpose-aligned strategies that enhance brand integrity and unlock team performance.

Brand integrity is the key to building brand loyalty.

Value and trust are essential elements for establishing brand integrity. While traditional thinking concentrates on how customers perceive a business, modern thinking also incorporates the employee experience. Ignoring this interdependence hinders growth.

At the Sproutling we leverage our expertise to create remarkable businesses with our clients.
