  • 01 Making the leap to independent consulting with Helen Merati
    Mar 17 2021

    In this episode, I talk to Helen Merati about her consulting journey. Helen has a background in international health and has worked in the sector for over 20 years.  She worked in a consulting firm for 10 years supporting, managing, and contributing to consultancies in health systems strengthening, SRMNCH, HIV, and more. And then stepped into the world of independent consulting.

    In this episode, we learn about how Helen made the decision to work in consulting and why.  And how she got her all-important first client.
