<b>Sahar Hashemi</b> is author of the bestselling business book <i>Anyone Can Do It: Building Coffee Republic from Our Kitchen Table</i>.<br /> Abandoning a successful career as a lawyer, Hashemi founded the UK’s first US style coffee bar chain and went on to build it into one of the UK’s most recognised high-street brands with a turnover of £30m. Since selling the company Hashemi has gone on to become a hit on the speaking circuit. Originally speaking at entrepreneurial and business start-up events, it soon became apparent that her experiences could motivate employees in larger corporations and organisations. She now speaks at around 70 events a year worldwide to companies including IKEA, Infosys, Accenture, GlaxoSmithKline, Microsoft and IBM.<br /> Named by H.M. The Queen 'Pioneer to the life of the Nation' and the World Economic Forum Davos as 'Young Global Leader', Hashemi has been listed in: 100 Most Influential Women in Britain; <i>Daily Mail</i>Top 35 Women in British business under 35; <i>Management Today</i>20 most powerful women in Britain.
