Business Development Group helped keep Scott Bennett on the road to success

‍

With over twenty years experience in a corporate environment Scott Bennett knows everything there is to know about logistics management.  He’d learnt his trade from the ground up starting in the air force before moving on to the commercial industry.  After many years in a corporate environment Scott was lured by the love of woodwork and the idea of being his own boss and made the life changing decision to purchase a joinery business in 2014.  The logistics industry was not ready to let Scott’s skills go and not long after purchasing his joinery business Scott found himself driving his own logistics company too.  Having achieved great success in everything he did, Scott found the diverse nature of running a business, and then two businesses a challenge.

‍

Scott attended the Business Development Group (BDG) hoping to learn some new skills and find some answers to problems he was encountering.  BDG was a relief.  Scott found like-minded people who had encountered similar problems in business and was able to discuss solutions openly and honestly.  Looking at his business processes from a different perspective was an affirming experience.  Scott was able to identify which things he was doing well and which he needed to improve.  The obligation to present a board report each month held Scott accountable for his actions and this was very motivating. Scott’s strengths in management were valuable to BDG members who were able to gain from his long experience in people management.   The most enjoyable part of the group was the opportunity to connect with other business people in an authentic way.  Scott found himself energised and de-stressed after every session and made some solid relationships with group members.
