Create a Reliable, Resilient & Stress-Free business

It’s not because your people aren’t capable, it’s because your way of working isn’t clear, shared, or consistently applied.

"McDonald’s aren’t consistent because they have systems. They’re consistent because they make those systems stick!”

Unlock the secrets to sustainable success, build trust, achieve consistency, and create an actionable blueprint for scale, sale or franchise.

The Keynote

With BIG MAC THINKING™ your team are clear, confident, and take ownership – giving you the consistent performance you can trust.

From Confusion to Clarity

When everyone in your team knows what good looks like and how to deliver it, consistency stops being a challenge and starts being the norm.

From Resistance to Ownership

Get your team believing in how things are done, and why it matters. When people own what they do, high standards become a matter of pride

From Firefighting to Focus

Let’s get you out of the weeds and away from firefighting. Focused on growth and scale, not the day to day

The BIG MAC
THINKING Model

Most businesses want to scale. They understand they need systems to do it, but they’re unsure where to start, and get completely stuck when it comes to overcoming their team’s resistance, to make their systems stick.

Drawing on almost 30 years with McDonald’s and 15 years working with fast-growing, scale-up businesses, Marianne Page shows leaders and teams how to build clarity, ownership, and consistent performance through her OURWAY model – a simple, practical blueprint that gets everyone engaged, aligned and working to the same high standard.

If you don’t design your business to run without you, it will never run properly with you.
