Inspirational business coach wins Innovation and Excellence award for the second year running

Inspirational business speaker, award-winning coach and author, Taz Thornton, has been named the UK’s Personal Empowerment Specialist Of the Year for the second year running at the 2022 Corporate LiveWire Innovation and Excellence Awards.

“I’m honoured to be named the UK’s Personal Empowerment Specialist of the Year last year, it was a tremendous accolade. I want to empower people, to encourage them to break through the fears and beliefs that are limiting them. To be considered again was humbling and then to be recognised for a second year running is such an incredible feeling, especially as the nominations come from the readers and contributors of Corporate LiveWire’s publications,” Taz said.

The awards celebrate the success and achievements of firms and individuals who have demonstrated exceptional business performance using an innovative approach and who consistently show best practice in every aspect of their work.

“Each year we invite both readers and contributors to the Corporate LiveWire publications to put forward companies, products, services and individuals who they feel are deserving of recognition,” said David Bateson, Corporate LiveWire Awards. “The judges once again felt that Taz was the strongest entrant in the Personal Empowerment Specialist category. Congratulations Taz!”
