Sally Stockreisser, a qualified emotional empowerment coach and professional speaker has taken on the role of President at BNI White Horse – a Swindon-based networking and referral group.
BNI, or Business Network International, is a global business networking organisation with more than 500 chapters across the UK with over 13,000 members. Its focus is simple – to help local businesses grow through trusted referrals and regular in-person connections.
The BNI White Horse group, which covers the Swindon and Chippenham areas, officially launched in November 2024 and has become a friendly and productive space for professionals to share opportunities, advice and support each week. The group meets weekly at Broome Manor Golf Complex in the town.
Sally, a former teacher who lives near Chippenham, joined the group in January of this year as she felt she needed a professional ‘family’ to support her business.
“Being a coach, it was important to me to make credible connections with other business people who are caring and looking to build supportive, trusting professional relationships.”
Sally says the experience of membership has brought plenty of benefits for both her and her own business.
"My BNI group has provided me with invaluable business education, support and personal growth. To be part of such a warm community, built on connection and trust, provides an enrichment to my business week that I deeply appreciate and value."
When she was asked to take on the role of President, she said it felt like a real privilege and a challenge. She takes over the role for the next year from fellow member Sally Holland, a partner with PPS Chartered Accountants.
“It’s a great honour, but I knew it would be a team effort to continue to support this group’s growth,” she said. “We have a fantastic group of people covering many sectors and I look forward to continuing the good work already done by Sally Holland. It's a privilege to lead such a wonderful group of individuals and I'm so excited about what we can achieve together through collaboration and support."
Sally has run her Coaching Illumination consultancy for the last four years, following on from a career in teaching. She now enables business owners, leaders and managers to transform their emotional fatigue and intensity using her 'Emotional Rebuild Framework'™ through coaching 1:1.
