The fastest path to growth is through relationships; especially those that hold you accountable to your word.

I had the privilege of sitting down with Sir Darren Jacklin, a global business leader and philanthropist, whose journey from being labeled a throwaway kid to building international companies is a testament to the power of integrity. Darren shares why keeping your word creates unstoppable credibility, how he tests potential partners (on hiking trails of all things), and the simple but powerful requests that open doors you never thought possible.

What impressed me most is Darren’s unwavering commitment to service—acquiring businesses not just for profit, but to fund his mission of building schools worldwide.

In this conversation, you’ll learn how to raise your standards, make better asks, and transform connections into meaningful collaborations. His wisdom is both practical and inspiring, showing exactly how business growth and lasting impact can go hand in hand.

Highlights:

  1. Integrity that scales - How keeping your word, reputation, and credibility becomes a career flywheel—and the three structures Darren uses to protect them.
  2. Requests that get results - A simple “make the ask” framework so people either accept, decline, or counter—without you taking it personally.
  3. Vetting partners in the wild - Why Darren takes prospects hiking to read true behavior, reduce risk, and spot red flags before deals.
  4. From broke to builder - How micro-commitments, mentors, and accountability reversed an R9 credit rating and set the stage for acquisitions.
  5. Rolling up “boring” businesses - Why acquiring bookkeeping and tax firms creates predictable revenue—and how that fuels his goal to fund 1,000 schools.
