One minute with.......Stead Denton

What gets you out of bed in the morning?
I am extremely fortunate having a job and a business that I really enjoy.

At the time the Iron Curtain fell, IPL opened offices in Hungary and Romania on-selling IT equipment in a market place that had no commercial structure. Payment terms, logistics, training were unknown in the area at the time.

Your philiosophy on life?
If something needs changing and you can change it, then change it but if you cannot, then forget it and move on.

Who's your favourite superstar and why?
Mohammed Ali – apart from being a great athlete and boxer, he was a very humorous man who captivated audiences and was also a humanitarian.

What is your favourite food?
Being from a Croatian background I enjoy cold meats, cheese, olives, bread and a glass of good wine.

What are you reading at the moment?
I’m dyslexic, so unless it is news or information I need for business, I do not read much at all.

What are you listening to at the moment?
My partner says I live in a musical wilderness, that being said, I like the R&B performers particularly Aretha Franklin, Ray Charles, Sam Cooke, Fats Domino, Curtis Mayfield, BB King and so on.
