Last week, I attended Baker Tilly Hughes Blake’s Tax and Economic conference at the Shelbourne Hotel to hear excellent speeches from three leaders in their fields:
Alma O’Brien – Head of Tax at Baker Tilly Hughes Blake
Fergal O’Brien – Director of Policy and Public Affairs at IBEC
Jim Flavin – Founder of DCC
The final talk with Jim Flavin was a fireside chat with Baker Tilly’s Managing Partner, Neil Hughes, where he discussed starting DCC in 1976, the growth of the business and their investment focus backing entrepreneurial management teams.
He also gave some really insightful tips on how to build a large company and what was key to their success. Being in Mason Alexander and seeing our own growth over the past 5 years, it was great to hear his thoughts. I’ve outlined some of his top tips below:
Other good points he made:
His final point: Never shy of taking holidays – switching off is very important and helps gather your thoughts.
