    Welcome back to Between The Eyes podcast.

    In this week's episode I speak to Tom Maxwell from Twisted Automotive.

    Probably the most self assured 25 yr old I’ve ever spoke to.

    Very smart, immensely confident, Twisted’s exclusive Land Rover Defender 4x4s are taking the world by storm with an unrivalled combination of proprietary engineering, fashion-worthy custom design, performance prowess and an unmistakably striking presence on and off the road.

    I'm really interested to see where the product and the business goes in next 5 years.
    Tom will go far.

    Listen to how Tom views the product - it’s not just a few tweaks and a new colour it’s a complete engine upgrade and more.

    Some of the Twisted Land Rovers retail at over £200k.

    The potential launch of an electric Twisted product and his views on next generation services.

    I guarantee it will be a name you will hear a lot more of in the next 20 years.

    Welcome back. This week we welcome Charlotte Sweeney OBE

    Charlotte is a 'TED' Speaker, OBE and renowned author on Equality, diversity and Inclusion in the workplace.

    A topic that I believe 99% of business owners and senior managers get wrong or are scared of opening the box.

    Here we discuss Charlotte’s early life from a northern mining town to working in Canary wharf during the yuppie era. Big bonuses and red pinstripes, and how did the rest of the work place feel about those “bankers” getting those massive salaries.

    Charlotte has the most amazing infectious voice, and we decided the topic is too big for one pod, so we agreed more are needed.

    Loved chatting to Charlotte, super bright and super funny.

    Welcome back to Between the Eyes podcast.

    Founder, investor, NED, and the only man I know who has the ability to run a power station.

    Turning his back on engineering and making a career in networks and IT, Jon built and exited a very successful company Bloc Solutions turning over Circa £25m.

    We discuss the help we all need running a business and how with time those decisions become easier and quicker to make. Jon became my NED at Vapour and taught me a lot about strategy and internal goal setting.

    He helped me understand the detail that not only I needed but the team expect from a fairly inexperienced business owner Jon is now CEO of Tiger a business that captures patterns and changes in their telephony and Unified Communications systems.

    We also quickly gloss over the fact he is a scratch golfer.
