Be Inspired with Hamish Taylor

Business Link interviews Hamish Taylor following his exceptional presentation on Tuesday 20 October in Leeds.

With a CV that The Times described as “takes some beating,” Hamish has an award-winning record of driving innovation and change in a range of business environments. Hamish was trained in brand management at Procter and Gamble, was a management consultant at Price Waterhouse, head of brands at British Airways, CEO of Eurostar, and CEO of Sainsbury’s Bank - all before he was 40. In all cases, he left behind a record of significant business growth triggered by a willingness to challenge the normal way of doing things.

Innovation is not just about great ideas. It’s about capturing the ability to generate these ideas, evaluating and developing them and launching them into the market. For this to take place successfully, innovation needs to be embedded within a business.
