What’s it really like to go through an acquisition and come out the other side stronger?
In this episode of Foster Denovo Talks, we sit down with David Hulland, Partner and former adviser at Brian Mole, who shares his honest experience of being acquired by Foster Denovo.
Rather than a job move or a fresh start, this was a full-scale transition, professionally and emotionally. David opens up about what it was like to go from smaller advice firm to integrating into a larger advisory business through an acquisition.
We explore the real life challenges that come with an acquisition, the uncertainty, the questions, and the shift in culture but also the surprising upsides; the support, the structure, and the renewed energy that came with being part of something bigger.
Now firmly embedded within Foster Denovo, David reflects on the impact it’s had on him, his clients, and his outlook.
