Speaker Details: -
Harvey Gora, Director, Business Doctors, spent
more than a decade transforming his family’s clothing manufacturing company
into a successful pet accessories company by forging loyal relationships with
SMEs and focusing on delivering what customers need.
'When I
joined the family business, I got involved in every single aspect, from sales
and procurement to admin and finance. It was quite an experience. I turned it
from a loser into a winner that currently employs around 17 people.'
After
graduating from the University of Manchester in economics, Harvey worked for a
few large organisations in telecoms, financial services and business
development. Then faced with a tough and challenging decision decided to carry
on the mantle of the family business. The business was in the red after a huge
bad debt but Harvey battled on and a couple of years later managed to turn the
business and repay the debt. He subsequently changed industries, took
production overseas, deployed a structure for LT growth and financial sustainability
and ten years later built a hugely successful business, which still remains in
the family.
During
this time Harvey also qualified as a CIMA management accountant, secured
several investments, ran a property portfolio and started up an e-commerce
business, which was successfully resold.
Matthew Levington, Managing Director, Business
Doctors - Intelligent, talented individuals who enjoy fast-paced, challenging
environments make ideal business consultants and advisors. Matthew certainly
fits the bill. A veteran of the highly-competitive and rapidly evolving media
industry, Matthew started his career in sponsorship and promotions at
Piccadilly Radio. He quickly moved up the corporate ladder at EMAP and was soon
displaying his talents in a series of senior roles.
Matthew
became managing director of Crash FM in Liverpool after its failed launch and
managed to reverse its fortunes by attracting the valuable youth market and the
advertising revenues that follow. Matthew moved to Chrysalis stations Galaxy
105 in Yorkshire, followed by Galaxy 102 in Manchester, one of the UK’s largest
radio markets. Matthew revived the underperforming Manchester station with
bold, carefully calculated strokes that included the appointment of a senior
management team, relocation to the city centre and a determined focus on
building a profile amongst the city’s advertisers, businesses and communities.
Matthew’s
relevant business experience and talent for turn-around led him to found
Business Doctors Ltd. This unique opportunity to promulgate his hands-on style
and to have a major impact on clients' bottom lines made Business Doctors the
ideal venue for Matthew’s many competencies and talents.
