Join us for our fourth Leader's Network Lunch of 2024 kindly sponsored by .
Our regular Leaders' Lunches bring together business leaders from all sectors. Delegates will enjoy a two-course lunch with a glass of wine/soft drink and coffee, in the company of various other directors from across the North West. An influential guest speaker will share their valuable experiences and key insights.
There will be plenty of networking time as well during the welcome reception, during lunch and after.
Our guest speaker for September will be Matt Bennett听
Matt was Managing Director of DRB Group Ltd from 2016 to 2023. DRB (1976-2023) was a solely family owned and run SME, passed from father to son. They were a complex engineering services, and turnkey project solutions provider, serving manufacturers in various sectors, but predominately, food, rail, and nuclear. They had a turnover of circa 拢12million and employed 150 staff.
Matt took over the business from his father in 2016 and managed the liquidation process last year.
In Matt鈥檚 own words:
We鈥檝e all seen those speeches where someone stands up and tells us all how great they are and how they鈥檝e won the Tour de France, raised perfect children, wrote a book and swum the Atlantic, all whilst founding, running, and growing a business they sold for 拢20m.
Well, that isn鈥檛 me and it never was!
So, when I was asked to talk to you, I decided I鈥檇 be me. I鈥檇 be authentic and uncomfortably honest.
I鈥檒l talk about what happens when the plan fails. What it looks like when a business dies on your watch.
The realities and the lessons learned. The need for self-reflection, resilience and practising extreme level ownership.
In today鈥檚 world I passionately believe we all need to stop the 鈥渁lpha- male鈥, toxic culture, and learn to be less zero sum and collaborate more than polarise, find huge solace and comfort in over sharing and creating a space where others can do the same.
