25: Award-Winning Entrepreneur Claire McDevitt: On Developing Partnerships

She wrapped up a business she started less than a year ago and calls it a success!

In this episode Claire shares her insights on:

• How to decide on a business partner and what to look for - she talks about the separation she had with a business partner and why she tried it again
• What to look for when partnering in business
• The ‘bounce back factor’ that makes us resilient
• Positivity in leadership and the ripple effect it has for employees and clients
• Getting comfortable with the uncomfortable when networking
• Tips for success - ask for help, don’t try to do it all on your own, find a mentor or like-minded community
• A morning routine and the power of gratitude
• Follow your north - align to your truth

Claire co-founded Fit to Fly, a healthcare business for Bermuda’s tourism industry, having responded quickly to a need in the market - it was a Covid response and the business has wrapped up now because Covid testing is no longer a mandatory requirement for travel. The business also donated over $7,000 to local charities - they committed from the start to contribute a percentage of their income.

Claire’s primary business is Healthcare Solutions Bermuda (www.healthcaresolutions.bm) which provides organisational management and staffing solutions for medical practitioners. Her promise is to manage the health of the medical practice so doctors and staff can better manage the health of their patients.
