In this first full episode of Teeter Talks, I am honoured to have the opportunity to speak with John Sleeman, Founder of Sleeman Breweries and Spring Mill Distillery, and his son Cooper Sleeman. With a mission to continue his family’s legacy, John sought to build a state of the art, world-class distillery his ancestors would be proud to see today. With a strong background in sales and marketing, Cooper manages brand development and is thoroughly involved in the day-to-day operation of the distillery. Join us as we dive into the incredible backstory and history of the iconic Sleeman name, striving to build a legacy through authentic leadership, and what it’s like being involved in a tight knit family business. Tune as we discuss:
• John's journey from discovering his family's brewing legacy, to founding Sleeman Breweries, to Spring Mill Distillery with his own sons.
• The importance of setting boundaries and maintaining privacy in business in the digital age of entrepreneurship.
• The challenges, joys and hard work that come with working in a family business looking to build a brand that truly stands the test of time through their quality products and respected reputation.
• John’s uniquely authentic leadership and management style, when it comes to collective team dynamics and raw trust in others.
• The significance of innovation, staying ahead of the curve, and most importantly, giving back to the community from which their company exists.
• What’s next for the Sleeman’s: non-alcoholic drinks, bucket list items, movies, wineries?
