Clarity. Focus. Better Decisions. Stronger Results.
What Is a Mastermind Group?
A mastermind group is a carefully selected network of like-minded business owners who meet to share insights, solve challenges, and hold each other accountable.
Napoleon Hill describes the power of the Mastermind in Think and Grow Rich:
"No two minds ever come together without thereby creating a third, invisible intangible force, which may be likened to a third mind."
He even went on to say that every business owner should be in two Mastermind groups: one dedicated to their specific business niche; the other a general business programme.
Mastermind groups deliver:
Collaborative Problem-Solving
Draw on the experiences and perspectives of others to find new solutions
Accountability
Commit to achieving goals with support from your peer group
Inspiration and Community
Build strong, professional relationships that encourage and challenge you
Why Join the KBB Mastermind?
The KBB Mastermind brings together a group of non-competing kitchen retailers who meet regularly to gain clarity, share insight and make better decisions. Facilitated by Inspire KBB’s Managing Director, David Barker, it combines strategic workshops, honest discussion and practical accountability to help you move your business forward with more focus and confidence.
The aim is simple: to give you the clarity, structure and support you need to develop your business with intent rather than reaction.
The KBB Mastermind is designed for kitchen retailers who want to:
think more strategically
identify better opportunities
make clearer, more confident decisions
build a stronger and more resilient business
stay focused on what truly moves the business forward
progress faster with structure and accountability
learn from others facing similar challenges
It is a practical, strategic environment that helps you step back from the day-to-day and lead your business with intent.

What’s New for 2026?
Defined Strategic Workshop Themes
Each in-person meeting will revolve around one of five focused themes:

Expert Contributors
Specialist contributors will join the programme across the year to lead selected workshops and provide deeper, experience-led insight.

- overall business size
- number of designers
- number of locations
Consistent Monthly Rhythm
All meetings - in-person and Zoom - will be on the second-to-last Friday of each month (by default).

What Members Said About 2025
Quotes from the recent member survey...
“Gained insights into how other retailers operate and seeing the operational differences has been greatly beneficial. The ability to share experiences has been a major plus.”
Gary Turnbull,
Saffron Interiors
“The programme has given us the confidence and foresight to grow our team (upscale), and run it more like a business instead of a one-man band. It’s also given us direction to integrate AI and CRM systems into the business.”

“As the year went on and people became more familiar, the sessions became more specific to each person’s circumstances. Thoroughly enjoyable.”

Why Mastermind Groups Work
Mastermind groups are a proven method for achieving personal and professional growth. They provide a unique combination of collaboration, accountability, and expert guidance to accelerate your success.
Tony Robbins, a strong advocate of mastermind groups, explains:
"The quality of your life is a direct reflection of the expectations of your peer group."
By surrounding yourself with ambitious, forward-thinking professionals, you’ll push your business further and faster than you ever thought possible.
