The biggest mistakes I’ve made have probably been in recruitment. It was a completely new thing for me being a Managing Director of a company. Sometimes I’d hire somebody who I was really enthusiastic about but it just didn’t work out and I’ve been let down on a couple of occasions expecting loyalty but not getting it. But I learn every single day in this job and I’ve tried to bring people in who I feel share a passion for the business, which is not always easy to spot. I always work very hard at rewarding that too.
I never hire somebody after one interview, I try to find out what makes them tick and where their passions lie. I’ve now got a really great team who are a fantastic bunch of people. When they ring you up in the evening to tell you they’ve spotted something in the paper that they think you should see, you know you’ve got the right team.
