Is there a โperfectโ time to be a founder?
On Monday, our CEO, was welcomed at the BAFTA Academy to join a panel to discuss his journey in particular โgrowing amidst crisisโ as part of the Help to Grow Management Alumni Network and Small Business Charter event.
Help to Grow: Management is a government-funded leadership and management course designed exclusively for small firms in the UK to help support business performance, innovation and long-term growth. It is delivered by an incredible community of 50 UK business schools and this event was designed to congratulate the first cohort of businesses that have completed the programme.
Alongside Government ministers and inspiring business leaders, Sahar Hashemi OBE (Founder of Buy Women Built, Co-Founder of Coffee Republic and Skinny Candy) and Eleanor Shaw (Associate Principal, University of Strathclyde), Dami spoke on resilient leadership and adaptation in crisis.
The panel shared their entrepreneurial experience of growing their business and building resilience as a leader within our community of SME leaders from all over the UK.
Dami stressed that there is never a โperfectโ time to be a founder: โwith market conditions changing, founder resilience will always shine through adversities - this is how ideas become game changersโ.
With an aim for 2025, the networkโs goal is to have over 20,000 SME owners complete the course and be part of the Alumni Network.
