The annual entrepreneurial lecture to The Centre for Entrepreneurship at The Robert Gordon University in Aberdeen on Thursday 14th April, 2011

Last week, I was honoured to provide the annual entrepreneurial lecture on behalf of The Centre for Entrepreneurship at The Robert Gordon University in Aberdeen, to the final year students and representatives of the local business community.  In addition, to describing my own entrepreneurial journey (so far) titled, “From Dreams to Reality, with a lot of blood, sweat & tears”, I was asked to provide my advice and views on:
  • whether entrepreneurs are born or bred
  • what entrepreneurship is all about
  • what’s required to succeed as an entrepreneur and in business
  • what you can learn from sport
  • lessons from 25 years in business
