The ICFM conference was concluded with a lively presentation from automotive entrepreneur Kevin Gaskill, who used case studies of his time as Porsche GB managing director and his treks to the North and South poles to illustrate the importance of planning and management to the success of an organisation.
“When you don’t have a plan, the business fails because what worked in the past doesn’t work in the future,” he told the conference. “Plans are key and the important thing is that people understand how they fit into the plan – pulling that together takes leadership.”
