CAREER-VIEW MIRROR - biographies of colleagues in the automotive and mobility industries.

Paul Kirby: The Electric Van Man on not being defined by our past, the downside of ambition without vision and mission and his passion for commercial vehicles.

Andy Follows Episode 188

In this episode we are celebrating the career to date of Paul Kirby.

Paul is well known in the UK van world as "the Electric Van man" and as a member of The EV Café team.

In our conversation we talk about his rocky start in life, and his career journey from his first job with a library suppliers as a warehouse person and van driver to  his current position.

I'm grateful to Paul for sharing his experiences as openly as he does. His approach to our conversation makes the story of his life and career journey all the more inspiring.

As always, I look forward to hearing what resonates with you.
