Running a business is exhilarating, but it can also feel messy, lonely and chaotic. Especially when your team isn’t quite working the way you hoped.
I’m Claudia Thompson, founder of The Business Fabrik, and I’m here to help you bring calm, clarity and structure to your business, so it runs smoothly without running you into the ground.
I know what it’s like to be thrown into leadership without ever planning to - juggling clients, cash flow and conversations you never expected to have.
That’s why everything I do focuses on one thing: alignment. Getting your people, goals and processes working together instead of against each other.
From practical tools to real conversations, The Business Fabrik helps you build the systems, structure and confidence to lead your way and actually enjoy it.
Over two decades of working with and within teams has taught me one thing: when people, goals and systems are aligned, everything flows. When they’re not, chaos takes over.
As a Fractional Chief Alignment Officer, I help small business owners turn vision into execution - building clarity, structure and accountability that make growth sustainable.
I’m also a Certified DISC Practitioner, published author and team strategist dedicated to helping teams actually deliver on the vision.

At The Business Fabrik, we believe great businesses are built on alignment, not just strategy. When people understand the vision, when systems support the work and when leaders have clarity, everything flows.
We exist to help small business owners and their teams:
Connect their daily work to a shared purpose
Create systems that make growth sustainable
Cultivate workplaces where people feel trusted, motivated, and valued
The era of faceless corporations is ending. We’re here to empower leaders to build human businesses where people love what they do, where productivity comes from purpose and where success feels smooth, not forced.
We combine insight with action. Every conversation, workshop or consulting sprint is designed to help you see clearly, act confidently and create momentum that lasts.
Our approach is:
Practical – grounded in real-world tools and 90-day frameworks.
Personal – tailored to your business, your goals, and your people.
Proven – informed by years of leadership, behavioural science, and business strategy experience.
No fluff. No corporate jargon. Just alignment that works.
"I wish I'd met Claudia years ago."
"I’ve have attended a couple of business coaching workshops run and hosted by Claudia now and can’t recommend them enough.
Just in a few workshops I’ve learned so much about planning the growth on my business and also putting strategies in place to help me work more efficiently to allow me to take more time away from my desk and enjoy more my life more. All this without it affecting my business. In fact the strategies may well mean I actually grow more while spending less time physically working."

"Incredible Support"
"Claudia and The Business Fabrik have been an incredible support in my journey not only as a business owner but also as a leader. Having never led a team before I was at a loss and nervous how to ensure I was the best leader I could be, especially only 18 months into my entrepreneurship. Claudia is great at coaching me to have the right tools needed, checking in to make sure I am the right track when it all seems overwhelming and also a great sounding board. A massive thank you Claudia. I would highly recommend Claudia and The Business Fabrik to anyone."
