The best business ideas are often years in the making – 20 years in Agnentis Partners case. For founder, Raymond Holt is no slouch when it comes to his research. Whilst many of us have passed the time with the Metro, Dan Brown or a box set, Raymond has put twenty years of commuting to good use. Seeking to read, understand and interpret the personal and professional challenges he encountered as Finance Director across a multitude of enterprises.

For it wasn’t the numbers that fascinated Raymond, it was the people – their personalities, their motivations and the experiences that shaped them and their emotions. In any given situation two people would react differently to the same information, often with entirely different results for them and the people around them. Equipped with an understanding of why individuals react differently Raymond posed the question to whether two people could attain the same result?

Inherently an emotional person, it was perhaps the dispassionate nature of the finance function that motivated Raymond to train as a coach. Seeking to use his numeracy in a different way to help people grow – developing themselves and their businesses.
