Listen Later

Peter Roper has ridden the rollercoaster of business success. 

After many successful years in a corporate career, where he was responsible for a company turning over £38 million, Peter set out to create his own business in 1996. 

The journey as a business owner was not easy and led to some of the biggest challenges of his life, and the greatest insights about business success. 

Alongside his business journey, Peter has been a professional speaker, President of the Professional Speakers’ Association and author of best selling books.

In 2015, Peter formed the Family Business Practice, to help family business owners successfully develop the skills, experience and networking community that enable their businesses to thrive.

This episode is going to deliver speaking and business gold, and I’m so excited to share it with you.

Enjoy!
