Meet Philip Bain…

 

Philip Bain is the co-founder of ShredBank – a multi-award-winning on-site shredding company and the author of two business books: Start to Grow and Start to Lead. 

Being a well-known public speaker and a lay-preacher, Philip is no stranger to microphones and has used his influence to raise tens of thousands of pounds for the Princes Trust and other charitable organisations.

With a real grasp on the nuts and bolts side to business combined with a deep desire to make a meaningful impact, Philip has been a source of personal inspiration for my own business and the work I do with the podcast.

Fun fact: his dad was also the man who brought Pizza Hut to Northern Ireland.

In today’s episode, we talk about his dynamic exposure to entrepreneurship at a young age, how to make a difference while making money and advice on how to stay authentic in our work.

Introducing ‘The Disruptors’ — a mini-series presented in partnership with Fleet Financial

Our chat with Philip Bain is the third episode in ‘The Disruptors’ mini-series.

By partnering up with the guys at Fleet Financial, we’re able to bring you six exclusive interviews with some of Northern Ireland’s most disruptive industry leaders. Recorded in the usual Best Of Belfast style, these hour-long conversations will give you insight into what it takes to adapt in an ever-changing world, become a disruptive leader and make a difference through your work.


The best part is, every episode is available as a video podcast too with a new episode being released every other week on our podcast channels and the Fleet Financial YouTube page.

This is unlike any series we’ve brought to you before, and a real opportunity to learn from men and women at the top of their industry who influence and shape our day-to-day lives.
