While he’s not typically one for being centre stage – preferring to leave that to his clients – Chantry MD Chris Cook was recently persuaded to step into the limelight after being asked to appear on ScaleUp Radio’s podcast to discuss business culture and Chantry’s growth journey.

In a wide-ranging chat covering our 15 years of existence, Chris talks about the importance of setting and maintaining the right company culture to build something special. His key takeaway:

“Go and find the best people you can, who are respected, who you can work with, who have a voice and an opinion, and make them part of your team.”
