Robert Craven works with ambitious owner-directors of fast-growing businesses who feel that they could be doing even better. Robert set up the first of several businesses (restaurant, cafe, training company, sound studio) in his final year at university.

He then spent five years running training and consultancy programmes for entrepreneurs at Warwick Business School. Running his own consultancy – The Directors’ Centre – since 1998, he is now one of the UK’s best-known speakers on growing your business.

Alongside numerous speaking engagements, Robert also does consulting work for, and is chairman or personal mentor to, a number of growing UK businesses.

He lives near Bath with his wife and two Jack Russells; his three fabulous children have escaped to live their own lives!
