We were delighted to welcome Dr Iain MacRtchie of MCR Holdings and MCR Pathways back to CfEL to address our business audience.

Iain’s unique passion and single minded determination set the pace and energy level for the day. He discussed how to review your business with fresh eyes, the importance of placing appropriate value on outcomes, how to deal with failure, time management, how to build a team and achieve sustainable teamwork, scenario based business plans and the power of consistency.

Iain’s understanding of human nature is vital to all of his business success and he shared skills in dealing with people, the past and the future with positivity, trust and empathy. The same ideas, solid base and insightful building blocks are behind the huge success of MCR Pathways – a Scotland-wide (and growing) mentoring organisation which has achieved extraordinary success in turning around the future educational and employment opportunities for many care-experienced teenagers. We were privileged to have Iain share his time, experience and learnings with our CfEL audience once more. Many thanks indeed, Iain.
