Keiller, who confirmed his retirement from Wood Group in 2015, set up the consultancy AB15 to give entrepreneurs affordable access to his years of experience.
“AB15 is a working name for a consultancy that captures the idea of providing support for others and without trying to make it a profit making organisation,” Keiller said.
“What I’m trying to do is say if I provide you with tens of thousands of pounds worth of coaching I want you to turnaround and provide that coaching to the next generation of businesses – maybe not now, maybe not next year but maybe in five years’ time or even longer. I want to try and create that pay forward commitment, that ripple effect, so people can take what I give them and what other people give them and say this creates an obligation and I have to give this back somewhere along the line.”
