Helping people managers to develop, engage and retain your best people.
Most managers are hired for their skills. Not their ability to lead people.
Amie Fox works with founders and growing organisations to build a management layer that can make decisions, handle hard conversations, and manage problems early. She does this through training, process improvement, consulting projects, and speaking.
You probably recognise this.
You have managers. Good people, promoted because they were brilliant at the job. But you’re still the one they come to, still having the conversation that should have happened weeks ago.
FoxBuzz is our flagship solution: a blended tech and human programme for managers that helps your managersto develop, engage and retain your best people.
Amie Fox
FOUNDER, A FOX CONSULTING
Fifteen years in communications, operations, training and leadership, in organisations growing faster than their systems could keep up with.
She now works directly with founders and senior teams on the management layer: how it works, where it breaks, and what it takes to fix for good.
She has spoken at One Young World, Trinity College Dublin, Business in the Community and Social Entrepreneurs Ireland. She is the author of Mind the Blind Spot.

“I have never met somebody so passionate and motivated. Whenever I had a moment of not feeling well-motivated, Amie made me feel even more motivated than normal about building the business and doing right by the people in it.”
There are three ways to work together.
Most founders start with a single project. Some want the ongoing system. Others bring Amie in to speak, to shift a culture, motivate a team, or spark change at an event.
Fix something specific.
If a process isn’t working, onboarding, performance management, how you run exit conversations, how feedback flows through the business. Amie comes in, builds it, trains your managers in it, and leaves you with something that runs.
Build consistent management. Every month.
FoxBuzz is a monthly system for organisations who want their managers leading consistently, not just when something goes wrong. Built around your business, delivered in a practical monthly rhythm. For organisations of 15 to 200 people.
Book Amie to speak.
On overcoming adversity, building resilience, and what actually drives motivation and engagement in a growing team. Every talk is built around the room.
Mind the Blind Spot: Decision to Done
Good ideas don’t die of natural causes. They die on Tuesdays, when “we agreed on that” turns out to mean three different things to three different people. Amie’s book names the three gaps that let decisions slip, and the smallest amount of structure needed to stop it happening. Her perspective is shaped in part by visual impairment, which gives her an unusual ability to hear what a room believes it has agreed on, but hasn’t.

The Middle Manager Ceiling
Most founders hit the same wall as they grow: a management layer that’s meant to carry standards and decisions on its own, but isn’t quite there yet. This guide names the nine symptoms that show up when that happens, and lays out the five-part system that fixes it.
Score your own team with the built-in diagnostic, then work through the results with Amie on a coaching call.
