# Number 4 Consulting
Number 4 Consulting, based in Newmarket, is a business advisory and coaching firm led by director Steve Elsom. The consultancy specialises in unlocking human potential within organisations through targeted personality analysis, leadership development and strategic business guidance.
The firm operates across three distinct service pillars. For individuals, they offer personality profiling and performance management support. For businesses, they provide strategic planning, cashflow management and operational governance advice. For teams, they deliver 360-degree feedback, coaching skills development and engagement programmes designed to improve workplace dynamics and performance.
What distinguishes Number 4 Consulting is their focus on identifying "marginal gains" through understanding personality traits and characteristics. Rather than adopting one-size-fits-all approaches, they work with senior leaders to diagnose specific engagement challenges and develop tailored interventions. This methodology has proven effective across multiple sectors.
Steve Elsom's experience leading high-performance teams informs a practical, results-driven approach. The firm emphasises the connection between employee engagement, team cohesion and business outcomes—whether that's improving customer service delivery, strengthening internal communication or building confidence in leadership teams.
The consultancy demonstrates thought leadership through regular contributions to B2B publications, covering topics from remote working implications to business planning and networking strategy. This positions them as engaged advisors who understand contemporary workplace challenges rather than purely theoretical consultants.
