Join us for breakfast and discover how better hiring, leadership and people decisions can help you build a stronger, more valuable business.

People are the biggest driver of business growth – and often the biggest challenge.

From hiring your very first employee to building a leadership team capable of running the business without you, every stage of growth brings new people decisions.

Who should you hire first? How do you attract and retain the right talent? When should you stop doing everything yourself? And what impact do leadership, culture and succession planning have on the long-term value of your business?

Join us for breakfast and an engaging panel discussion exploring the people decisions that shape a business throughout its entire journey – from employee number one to succession, sale or exit.

Whether you’re building your first team, leading a growing business or planning your eventual exit, this is an event you don’t want to miss!

During the morning, we’ll explore:

Making the right hiring decisions at every stage of business growth

How the founder’s role must evolve as the business grows

Creating accountability without unnecessary bureaucracy

Managing performance and handling difficult conversations

Developing managers and future leaders

Reducing founder dependency and building a sustainable business

How leadership, people and culture influence business value and exit readiness

Come for breakfast. Leave with a clearer view of the next people puzzle your business needs to solve.

The discussion will be chaired by David Mutton, Business Advisor at Evolve, alongside a panel of experienced business leaders and specialists. Together they’ll share practical experience, honest lessons and real-world advice from businesses at every stage of growth.
