James Sinclair - Rules for making it in business, entrepreneurship and leadership
Employing over 300 staff, and with a forecast turnover of £10M+ in 2017, James Sinclair owns a series of play centres, childrens nurseries and entertainment farms.
He has recently co-founded the Entrepreneurs Network with Mark Creaser which has attracted over 200 business owners as members within the first 3 months of it’s inception.
An accomplished speaker, James is regularly invited to present to business audiences across the UK.
Along the way to his £10M turnover business he has produced a set of practical rules that apply to any aspiring entrepreneur from startup to multi-million pound operation, and he shares these willingly during this interview on Escape The Rat Race Radio.
