The New P & L - Principles and Leadership in Business

This week on The New P&L we speak with Rachel Carrell, founder & CEO, Koru Kids, UK’s fast-growing tech companies, which is dedicated dedicated to building the world’s best childcare service.  Rachel was working in healthcare when she experienced first hand how difficult and expensive it was to arrange childcare, and decided to found Koru Kids. She has since received national and international numerous awards including ‘Inspirational Mother of the Year’ and ‘Best Businesswoman in Tech’, and was elected a Young Global Leader by the World Economic Forum in recognition of her work. We discuss with Rachel: 

· How the traditional values represented by the Koru (the unfurling silver fern frond and a component in Māori art and tattooing) play out day to day in her business

· Whether Rachel sees her business as a childcare business or a technology-led market disruptor

· The training, mentoring and personal and professional management techniques Rachel employs to keep herself grounded and focused on leading an organisation of this nature

· Lessons in remote working from a business that has this model at its operational heart

· The balance between autonomy and adherence to core cultural values in business

· Why entrepreneurialism is so predominant among immigrant communities

· How Rachel is defining success in her business today and how this has changed since Koru Kids launched 

· Rachel’s view on the key qualities and characteristics of principled leadership in business

There’s an irony at the heart of many businesses –  owners, leaders and management teams constantly calling for greater creative thinking from their employees to help ensure their businesses can thrive in an ever-competitive market. However, when you open the doors and look inside many of these businesses, this treasured creativity and creative thinking remains often too narrowly defined and then confined to the marketing department; where it is unable to deliver on all the rich, untapped potential it could offer the business as a whole.

In this week’s The New P&L TO THE POINT we discuss whether creativity needs a rebrand to help change the perceptions of the real commercial value of creative thinking to a business, as well as how a mix of creative freedoms and frameworks can help it to flourish and deliver tangible benefits to a business’s strategic, operational and commercial arteries.
