Manage episode 343058981 series 3364895
Join me as I coach Andrew Ramroop, seen by many as the best tailor in the world. He was the first Black tailor on Savile Row and his highly confidential client list is much sought after. He tailored five suits for Princess Diana and now travels the world to fit his clients. As the session progresses, Andrew starts to uncover his blindspots and assumptions in his business. I’m excited to watch how he puts his discoveries into action in the near future.
The session covers:
- Kickstarting a business after a two-year pandemic lull
- To what extent are you pivoting effectively?
- Challenging your own outdated ways of doing things
- Succession planning for the next generation
