The attributes of a successful leader include passion, honesty, tenacity, determination, resilience, commitment, clarity of thought, intelligence – and a big dose of common sense!
In the optimum situation these attributes are supported by effective business processes and enhanced by personal communication skills.
Achieving a high level of personal leadership and influence is not easy.
These skills can be learned through experience or, more efficiently, can be developed through highly effective programmes designed to support senior teams through periods of challenge or uncertainty.
Kevin Gaskell’s journey embodies the transformative power of determination and adaptability. Initially setting his sights on Civil Engineering, he delved into the intricacies of the construction industry, honing his skills on notable projects. However, fate intervened when a serendipitous encounter with a job ad in the Sunday Times ignited his passion for automobiles. Joining Porsche marked a pivotal moment, catapulting him into a dynamic career trajectory that saw him ascend to the role of Managing Director by the age of 32. Gaskell’s story is one of strategic vision, bold leadership, and a relentless pursuit of excellence.
With a foundation in management accounting, Gaskell possesses a unique blend of financial acumen and operational prowess. His tenure at Porsche, Lamborghini, and BMW stands as a testament to his ability to drive record-breaking results and revitalize iconic brands. Beyond his corporate endeavors, Gaskell is a seasoned entrepreneur, having founded and nurtured international businesses to success. His leadership philosophy emphasizes a practical approach, armed with tools and techniques tailored to empower teams and fuel organizational growth. Through speaking engagements and mentorship initiatives, Gaskell shares his wealth of experience, inspiring leaders to cultivate high-performing teams and chart a course for sustainable success.
Having achieved more than every ‘Dragon’ (with the possible exception of Peter Jones) Kevin has been hands on in business for more than three decades. With a reputation for turning round world class brands, He believes you can rescue a company in 100 days and turn it into a hugely successful enterprise in 1000 days.
Kevin used the same techniques of inspired leadership to transform businesses and to create successful teams to overcome some of the world’s toughest environments – the Artic, Antarctic, unforgiving mountain summits and the Atlantic Ocean.
Today Kevin Gaskell actively chairs, invests and partners with a small number of companies helping them to achieve market leading growth and to manage change successfully.
Kevin is a natural communicator with the ability to lead, build and motivate a management team and to engage the team throughout an organisation.
A great speech has many elements, but it needs to do two things:
Engage the audience from start to finish
Energise them to take action
The second won’t happen without the first and the first alone doesn’t get results!
Kevin Gaskell has a unique talent for engaging audiences – and for inspiring them to take action. His experiences of driving turnarounds, achieving 500% profit growth and transforming local companies into global players were acquired within the corporate environment.
Adventurer
The joy of life comes from encounters with new experiences
Like many people who enjoy outdoor activities, Kevin became an adventurer ‘by accident’ or rather by degrees. Growing up in the mountains of North Wales he was always looking to spend the weekends exploring the paths and rock climbs of Snowdonia.
As Kevin Gaskell ambition to explore the wilder parts of the world grew so he looked to travel wilder and further. Following the loss of his sister to cancer he decided to use his exploring to raise monies for charitable causes.
Since then Kevin Gaskell has helped to fund a new cancer treatment centre and to support Alan Chambers MBE in the development of Extreme Classrooms™ an outdoor learning experience making a difference to the lives of vulnerable teenagers.
