- Elke Smith (Ulmer)Consultant, Trainer, Advisor, Composer and Singer
I have successfully trained, coached and tutored Directors and Senior Managers of Corporate Companies. As Manager of the Industry Department of the British-German Chamber of Industry and Commerce in London and Head of the Training Department I developed seminars and further education events on Government Level (DTI, Bank of England, CBI) and the British Industry (esp. Automotive Industry, German Industry Forum, British Trade and Services) and advised Companies and Industry Sectors on Investment to and from the UK. As a trained singer (mezzo-soprano) and Linguist (Bonn University, Sek.II Masters ) I combine voice coaching and tuition along with personal development plans that are integrated into the corporate strategy of a company. As a trained Theologian I have acquired coaching and counseling skills. As member of the Training Department of British Petroleum Oil International (HQ London), I developed the International Career check Programs for Senior Management for BO Oil International. (Analysing core skills, assessing profiles and transferable skills, setting up training programs and identifying training needs for individuals and professional grades e.g. Traders) and worked on strategic assessment schemes. My experience with International Corporations such as British Petroleum and the public sector such as the German Informatics Society and the DLGI/ECDL and my role as Consultant for the ELIG Policy Group has given me the opportunity to combine business consulting with brand coaching, marketing and personal performances of individual managers/directors and teams. I offer a wide range of Consulting Services ranging from tailored Business Strategy advice and the implementation of set targets and goals to PR, Marketing and Media Consulting. Personal goals and corporate strategy need to be one in order to be successful. I review and asses companies and organizations with the view of adapting and changing with the times in a way that works for them.

my mum a week before she passed away
I swim in the Lido
I swim in the Lido
I swim in the River
I moved with my husband Paul to Sawtry in 2016, just after I had had a
major car accident, that had knocked me back quite substantially.
Brexit, Covid etc. etc. I thought moving to the country (from London)
was a piece of cake.I always swam well as a kid but had not done much swimming since. Work and life
got in the way. I wanted to focus on getting fit and live a healthy and
grateful life. Swimming in an indoor pool was nice, but then I
discovered the crazy wild swimmers around Peterborough and Cambridge
(Bluetits). Out of that came a swim in Wansford and Linda kindly
introduced me to the wild women of the waters in Wansford. I felt at
home immediately. Swimming in the river with likeminded ladies, feeling
safe and happy and experiencing an invigorating and energizing swim,
everytime. I am so grateful. I am on my journey. Many thanks.I swim in the Lido
