Sustainable Style with Siblings at the Steering Wheel with Kite Clothing #114
Manage episode 492019821 series 2863159
We’re treated to so many accounts of family businesses working with non-family members, but what’s life like on the other side of the equation…?
The irresistible charm of Kite Clothing’s ranges is made possible by a brother-sister duo of Roger & Ally, and our guest today, third Co-Director Jo Spragg!
We champion her unique perspective on family business, and how this one has thrived for over 18 years, on a fascinating edition of It Runs In The Family.
This episode covers:
- How Jo works together with two sibling Co-Directors, while never feeling like a third wheel
- Ethics and morals at the heart of Jo’s motivations for starting the business
- How Kite grew organically from humble beginnings without rigid long-term planning
- The importance of flexibility, family involvement, and creating an environment that allows for personal growth and work-life balance
- Jo’s father's entrepreneurial background and influence on her career path
