Brave Bold Brilliant Property, Jeannette Linfoot of Busfoot Property

Experienced and highly regarded senior executive, property investor and board advisor Jeannette Linfoot has over 27 years' global professional experience across travel, leisure, hospitality and property sectors. Jeannette joins Allan Harding this week on More Than Just Property to talk about going from the boardroom tables of ‘big' international business to the dining room tables of entrepreneurial start ups, her life in property, and how to overcome challenges, embrace opportunities and take risks.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• Property developing since 2014, Jeannette & her partner Chris Busuttil have built an ever expanding portfolio of properties with Busfoot Property in London and Cambridgeshire, now turning their focus to Jeannette's home city of Manchester. 
• Busfoot Property is all about providing good solid homes for everyday folk so they can enjoy where they live and feel part of the local community. Each house acquired is treated with care and consideration where living spaces are designed with comfort and practicality in mind.
• Jeannette also talks to incredible people on her podcast about their experiences of being Brave, Bold & Brilliant, which have allowed them to unleash their full potential in business, their careers and life in general.
• The best piece of advice Jeannette ever received was to believe in yourself. That's something we all have to work on no matter what stage of success we're at. 
• Jeannette fell into the trap that a lot of women in business do where she tried to act like one of the guys just to fit in. But that's not true to herself and ultimately doesn't lead to success. She moved past trying to fit in and showed her worth through her work. 
• When you realise that anything is possible and you want to be the best, the best not in terms of money but the best that you can be, then that's the most empowered you can be. 

BEST MOMENTS
