Welcome to the NXTGEN show, my name is Benjamin Brain, Performance & Leadership coach, and it’s my mission to share with you the stories and experiences of accomplished, "next generation" leaders in family run businesses from across the UK.

In this episode, and in a first for the show, I was joined by father and son duo, Adam and Kevin Pritchard of Linford Grey Associates in Coalville, Leicestershire.

Adam, the Founder and Managing Director of Linford Grey Associates, began his career in the creative industries, working for film and theatre companies after being on stage in the West End, before taking a role as a management consultant in a small London consultancy firm.

From there, it became clear to Adam that the advancements in technology meant that in order to stay relevant, accounting and accountants needed to change.

His vision for Linford Grey Associates was to build  a practice that looked and felt more like a fintech company. An advisory led practice with an impressive tech stack that is leveraged to add value for clients

Kevin, Adam’s father, is an experienced business turnaround expert passionately committed to the growth and development of UK businesses regardless of their size.

Kevin sits on the board as Chairman at Linford Grey as well as several other companies as a non-executive director and over the course of his career has built and sold several businesses. The most recent of which was the multi-million pound sale of a manufacturing company to an AIM-listed company. 

So, for a brilliant insight into disrupting an industry and what it takes to forge a great father and son partnership in business, let’s get into it.
