DESCRIPTION:What does it take to overcome probability and gain competitive
  advantage? How do you identify the pivot points and how necessary is it t
 o be flexible? Where should the balance be between correcting the course a
 nd sticking to the plan and how does this help you to beat the odds? These
  are questions that many entrepreneurs and innovators have to answer as th
 ey develop their businesses. Certainly they are familiar issues for the gu
 est speakers at our first Enterprise Tuesday session of the 2016/17 series

  comet in 2014. Monica will be joined by *Tim Jones*\, CEO of the Allia Gr
 oup and Chariman of the quoted flavour and fragrance supplier Treatt Plc.\
