Passion as a Driving Force
Passion as a Driving Force
Inspiration is essential, and it can show up in the unexpected often outside the boardroom. Let me share a little about my personal passions, the learnings for business and how they influence my work
Formula 1 inspires me with its relentless pursuit of performance and precision. Every second counts. Every decision has impact. At its core is a deep, strategic team effort, engineers, analysts, pit crews, all working in sync. That kind of high-performance culture doesn't happen by accident. It takes trust, communication, and a shared commitment to the bigger picture. Just like in business leadership.

Then there’s street art; raw, bold, and unfiltered. It’s creative expression with purpose. It challenges norms, sparks emotion, and often says what needs to be said when words fail. Great leadership isn’t afraid to be visible, to take a stand, or to lead with authenticity. Street art also reminds us there’s beauty in temporary, don’t wait for the perfect conditions or solution make change!

And finally, animals, nature and in this context, gardening grounds me. It’s the quiet teacher of patience, timing, and care. You can’t force growth but you can create the right conditions for it. In leadership, it’s the same. You can’t control people, but you can nurture the environment where they thrive. It’s about resilience, environment, adaptability and commitment.

These three passions might seem worlds apart but together, they reflect how I see leadership.
A mix of precision and intuition, performance and creativity, fast paced decision making and long term nurturing.
That’s the space I love to work, with people and teams ready to evolve, grow and lead with purpose.

Our Founder
Hi, I’m Mel Roberts, thanks for visiting the site and your interest.
I founded Evol in early 2023, at that time I’d spent over 30 years building a successful corporate career, which had seen me lead global teams, and gain broad experience in large corporate brands like Boots and Specsavers.
I’d had a wonderful time, developed and grown, lived and worked overseas, experienced amazing things and met fantastic people, but I wanted new purpose and change for what I called my 3rd age career, it was time to evolve and grow again.
I’m an accountant by background, it’s my commercial backbone. But my career and experience is in operational improvement and transformation. Often working with smaller business units which were strategically important, but underdeveloped and utilised. This later developed into my great love for supporting SMEs.
What drives me is people, and over time I learnt that people and leadership are the driving forces of organisational growth. So I created Evol, to support people to be their best, whether we are working to drive improvement in their business or working individually to build knowledge or overcome seIf limiting beliefs.
