Aston Business School recently welcomed back one of its most successful MBA alumni: Chris Banks.
Chris is founder of Big Thoughts, a healthy food and drink business he set up after leading a management buy-out of a division of Coca-Cola, where he was UK Managing Director. Chris has also worked with some of major food and drink companies, including Grand Met, Allied Domecq and Mars.
In the interview, Chris talks about his experience at Aston Business School, his career path since he left the business school, and how it’s much harder to talk yourself out of a business idea than to talk yourself into one.
He also says that, with a first degree in Latin and French, if he hadn’t gone into business he might have ended up in the Vatican.
Here, Chris talks about how he started Big Thoughts after a management buyout of a division of Coca Cola.
