EP332: Janene Hawkins Bush’s Innovative Approach to Salon Ownership and Education
Manage episode 429076745 series 2578058
Leading four award-winning salons along the Suffolk coast, Janene Hawkins Bush is committed to moulding the next generation of stylists and salon leaders. She mentors her team members, helping many to develop the skills and knowledge they need in order to become salon owners themselves.
Janene expresses in her own words, “Unless you grab those opportunities and strike well behind its heart, then I think you can miss out on things.” Her passion is palpable, as is her commitment to mentorship, “All of our team have the opportunity to join the share scheme if they show initiative and the want to build a business.”
Her journey is not just about leadership; it’s about adaptability and the lessons learned from running businesses in diverse landscapes like France and the UK. “I did work for a property development company down in the south of France… and we came back to England,” Janene reflects, sharing the unique management challenges and the stark differences in salon representation in various economic climates.
Janene advocates for transparency and accountability, components she believes are foundational for growth, trust, and respect within a business. With an eye on the future, she emphasises the necessity for industry reinvention, sustainable practices, and the cultivation of community-focused salons to remain relevant and successful.
And make sure to stick around towards the end, because we go beyond the salon walls. Janene shares about MAD Education – an innovative initiative underscores her dedication to propelling the industry forward through affordable training and mentorship. We learn all about this and how you can get involved in providing or receiving hair education for just £99 per year.
