Success story: Podcast with Firebrand co-CEO & co-Founder, Robert Chapman

Firebrand co-founder and co-CEO, Robert Chapman recently joined The Melting Pot podcast by Monkhouse & Company to discuss how Firebrand became an incontestable leader of the Accelerated Learning market.

Founded 21 years ago, Firebrand has grown continuously, even though three major recessions and a world pandemic. This year, it became part of the BPP Education Group.

Firebrand's unique Accelerated Learning method delivers high-quality training at twice the speed, with excellent student retention, feedback, and career progression.

At the heart of this model is the fact that, rather than one CEO, Firebrand has two⁠ — Robert Chapman and Stefano Capaldo. Although conventional wisdom says two heads are better than one, co-partnership in the business world is often seen as odd.

Titled Unconventional Leadership as The Recipe for Success, the podcast challenges this way of thinking, discussing how Rob and Stef share responsibilities, their sales and marketing strategies, and how they scaled Firebrand.

“Define your product, have great people, have great processes!”
