Hull

Caleb sits down with FEO Hull.

Our very own Caleb Foster sat down with Jan Brumby, the CEO from For Entrepreneurs Only Hull last week to chat about digital learning, what it’s like to own a business, Caleb’s dog Woody and everything in between.

Caleb said, “FEO Hull was a great support to me personally when starting Mindboost, so it feels right to give back a little insight on running a business and the mindset behind that. When Jan asked for some insight to support other FEO members, how could I not!”

FEO Hull is made up of like-minded local entrepreneurs who as a collective, turn over £3.3bn each year. There are over 22000 people in the network who represent a wide range 

of successful businesses of all sectors and sizes. FEO Hull help entrepreneurs in Hull & East Yorkshire create wealth and jobs. Through regular events and initiatives, they aim to inform, motivate, educate, inspire and support others. FEO Volunteers were recently honoured with The Queen’s Award for Voluntary Service, the highest award a voluntary group can receive in the UK. Read more news here.

Caleb Foster Digital Learning Geek
After gaining more than 20 years of experience in operational excellence in the hospitality and digital learning sectors, Caleb wanted to rid the world of dull ‘click next’ and ineffective elearning and solve the epidemic of uninspiring digital learning. Mindboost began back in 2016, when Caleb, saw a huge opportunity to create better quality digital learning content that connects with learners emotionally to encourage a desire to learn more. Caleb realised there was a lack of true understanding of an organisation’s culture and inner-working when learning providers were presented with a request from a client. So, the Mindboost team get under the cover of an organisation’s performance need and ultimately look to connect with learners emotionally. When a learner is connected emotionally, they tend to start believing in a change, this then generates a feeling and makes a greater impact within the organisation than just conveying information.
