EP 336 - Kevin was CEO of Porsche, Lamborghini and BMW in the UK
who led the companies to hugely successful turnarounds and
business growth. He remains actively involved in numerous
companies worldwide, as both a founder investor and chairman,
currently including the UK’s fastest-growing fibre network
provider.
To date, Kevin and his teams have created over £4 billion in
shareholder value, making him one of the UK’s Top 40 leaders.
We discuss Kevin's remarkable journey, both personal and
professional: from transforming luxury brands into thriving
enterprises to becoming the oldest man to row the Pacific Ocean
at age 66!
Kevin reflects on his career challenges, his hands-on business
strategies, and his commitment to fostering entrepreneurship
through his initiative, Smarter Britain.
We recount Kevin's thrilling experiences of rowing the Atlantic,
drawing parallels between his survival endeavours and business
strategies. Kevin also explains why government inefficiencies
qualify for the big bin of bullshit.
