Books To The Boardroom
In Conversation with Brent Charlton, CEO and Director of Altitude Advisors
Today we are talking to Brent Charlton, Director of Altitude Advisors
We talk about how he navigated the GFC in his business, and as an individual.
Growing up with 2 parents as business owners, it seems Brent was always destined to become an owner himself and became a director in his late 20’s.
For an Accountant, Brent had a very unique university experience by engaging with the process in a way that is not typical.
He talks about only changing jobs twice in his whole career which makes for interesting listening.
Jack Ferguson co-hosted this episode.
