Failing A-Levels and not going to university yet experiencing growing a community from 0 to 1.7 million young people, working with the Prime Minister after being elected Member of Youth Parliament for Surrey representing 250,000+ people in Parliament and launching a company at 21, I feel the time is right to share my story.
Taking a different route to most can be incredibly daunting - especially if you're building a community. However, as the UK Chancellor, Rt Hon Nadhim Zahawi said to me, "You can't hug the world".
This is why I've spent the past 4 years learning from the UK's Chief Youth Officer and other noteworthy CEOs including the CEO of Pret a Manger, Pano Christou and the CEO of Aviva PLC, Amanda Blanc and more to see how they balance running 10,000+ people teams day-to-day.
