As a business owner, if you’re not fighting off competition, you’re dealing with a cash flow crunch or staff snafu. While putting out fires today, you’re also thinking about the future. And leading a business can feel lonely as heck.

You’re not alone.

Meet Andrew

Andrew Howson, the Queenstown-based brains, heart and muscle behind Poets & Gunslingers has faced the same challenges. He’s led multiple businesses over 20+ years – as a creator, maker, seller, and project manager. His experience spans working in prisons, NFPs, and software start-ups, in organisations from small and self-made to publicly listed.

You name it, he’s probably done it, and learned invaluable lessons you won’t find in an MBA. And if Andrew doesn’t have the answer, he’ll lasso a senior specialist from his extensive network to meet your exact needs.

These paths converge in Poets & Gunslingers.
