How I took Xero from £56K to a rapid £150M – part 2

Join us for the second part of our talk with Gary Turner, a forward thinker in business who helped turned Xero into a global leader in cloud accounting – raising its initial £56K UK revenue and a staff of three to a rapid £150M and 600+ staff in just a few years.

Xero is now worth over $10BN, and Gary continues to serve as a non-executive director at the Xero subsidiary, Planday alongside developing his new company, Everscale where he guides and inspires businesses on high growth and leadership.

This second part takes us from the emotional talks in part 1 on how his passion for working in, and helping others in business began when he saw his own father’s small business struggle, to more on his approach to business… Such as why creating a trusting and happy working environment for his people was - and is - crucial, key advice and tips for aspiring entrepreneurs and how always looking ahead to what’s coming next in business has helped him get to where he is today.
