Today John McLennan joins me to discuss his entrepreneurial journey in furniture and home space and how he created new opportunities for himself and his team by embracing the process of transition. Listen in as we discuss how to hire the right people to support you, following your gut, and nurturing the talents within your existing team. We will also break down the four stages of business transition and the tools you need to evaluate where you are in the process. John’s vision is to fill homes across Asia with beautiful furniture and accessories, to turn spaces into homes that people truly love to live in. In his role, he is responsible for business development, project sales and partnerships, as well as managing the brand and creative direction, design and trends. John has over 24 years of project management and design experience across Asia and founded Indigo Living in 2004 (previously known as Banyan Tree). Over the past 40 years the Indigo Living brand has continuously gone from strength to strength with award-winning furniture retail stores, offices, and project and corporate sales teams across Hong Kong, Shanghai and the Middle East.
