From Richard
I built HomeServe from a £50,000 start-up into a £4.1 billion sale. I'll tell you honestly, it took longer than it needed to.
What would have closed that gap was not more advice. It was a room. Ten founders and CEOs at my stage, meeting through the year, working to a plan and holding each other to it. I never had that, and I felt the absence of it for three decades.
That's why I bought Business Leader.
"If I'd had this structure when I started, I believe I could have reached the same success in half the time."
Sir Richard Harpin
Founder of HomeServe and Growth Partner · Owner of Business Leader
