After a career as management consultant I am now chairman, director or advisor of a number of companies and social enterprises within the areas of food, technology and restaurants (from casual to Michelin) in the UK, Scandinavia, the US and South America. And I’m a proud partner in “I am Döner” – a small chain serving great kebabs in Leeds and Harrogate. This experience has given me unique perspectives on what works and what doesn’t, in small and large companies – and a deep respect for the unique qualities and challenges of each individual business.
