The ETC. Collective welcomed Darren Hardy to the company.

The ETC. Collective is a leadership consultancy helping ambitious leaders and businesses turn bold ideas into practical, profitable reality. We partner with founders and senior leaders at critical moments - launching, scaling, pivoting or transforming - when complexity rises and momentum is at risk. Founded by former Amazon and Audible leaders Emilie Marneur and Clare Symmons, we combine decades of hands-on experience in media, retail and tech with a highly practical, execution-focused approach. Our support is wraparound, personalised and flexible. We don’t just advise from the sidelines; we embed alongside leaders and teams to translate vision into clear plans, focused priorities and tangible progress. From strategy-to-execution roadmaps and operating model design to financial clarity, automation and AI-enabled workflows, we help organisations build the structures, systems and confidence they need to grow sustainably. We are focused on delivering results across three core areas: • Planning & Execution: Turning vision and strategy into clear plans that teams can act on immediately. • Focus & Prioritisation: Helping leaders decide what truly matters - and what doesn’t. • Future-Proof Systems: Designing processes and operating models that flex and scale as your business grows. Clients value us as trusted partners: sleeves-rolled-up, zero ego and outcome-focused. We combine sharp strategic thinking with hands-on delivery. We’re known for bringing calm, clarity and commercial judgment to complex situations, solving problems quickly and turning them into practical next steps that drive real progress. If you’re at an inflection point and need clarity, focus, and forward motion, The ETC. Collective is for you.
