What does it take to build a business that puts people and purpose alongside profit? 🌊
Miren Oca started teaching swimming lessons as a young single mum, never expecting it to grow into a business with five centres, over 160 team members, and thousands of swimming lessons every week.
In this conversation with Franziska, Miren shares her entrepreneurial journey, why she transitioned 100% of her business to employee ownership, and how empowering her team has helped create a lasting impact.
From sharing business finances with employees to turning great customer service into powerful word-of-mouth marketing, Miren offers valuable lessons on building a business that benefits not just the owner, but the people and community around it.
Key highlights:
✅ How Miren grew a small swimming lesson business into a multi-centre operation.
✅ Why she transitioned 100% of her business to employee ownership.
✅ How financial literacy and profit sharing help team members think like owners.
✅ Why great customer service remains one of the most powerful forms of marketing.
✅ Why measuring business impact matters just as much as tracking KPIs.
The takeaway:Building a successful business is about more than revenue and growth. It’s also about the choices you make, the people you empower, and the positive impact you leave behind. ✨
