Innovator and Leader – “People, Persistence and Success”
Tom Potter, founder of Australian owned Eagle Boys Dial-A-Pizza, left school at 15 and found himself jobless at 23. He borrowed the money to open his first pizza shop in Albury, New South Wales and has proceeded to build his business to over 130 stores Australia wide with a current annual turnover in excess of $90 million.
Like many successful people, Tom started his business life with only a basic education behind him, no money and no mentor.
How did he achieve so much in only a few years in one of the most competitive industries in Australia?
How did he become Australian Financial Review’s “Young Business Person of the Year”? Why was he chosen to deliver the Valedictorian speech on behalf of his graduating class at the world famous Harvard Business School?
Why has he become a sought after speaker on people, persistence and success? Tom’s most recent foray was to take on the multi-national Pizza Hut Corporation in a Federal Court battle over who really is Australian in this industry. Eagle Boys won the case and received nationwide support and press and media coverage.
Tom can reveal his trail of trials, tribulations and triumphs at your next luncheon, conference, workshop or after-dinner occasion in his unique, dynamic, inspirational and straight forward style.
