Stu Macdonald, Manilife.

His role has changed loads from the chaos at the beginning.

He has been very driven after being told, during a serious illness, at 15yrs old he would never write again. He took time out to travel and ended up in Argentina where he discovered the power of peanuts - healthy and tasty. With no real market in Argentina, he imported the peanuts from Argentina and still imports them from the same single source.

His current motivation is to create something special for his twin girls and help more people to eat healthier by transforming peanut butter from breakfast to an all round ingredient in food.

He admires Liam Gallagher of Oasis and his Mother-in-law!

He loves the books Material world by E.Conway; Walking in Destiny by W.Churchill; and Let my people go surfing by Y.Chouinard

Just because you have 8-9 roles does not mean that you should not define each role.

Tips - just start (a business), it will change through time; don't quit your job until you breakthrough; as you grow, be aware of an ever growing to do list; and good luck favours those who keep going!
