Lessons in Love
Lessons in Love. No, this blog is not about a Level 42 song (for those of an age that can remember), it’s about what Valentine’s Day can teach businesses. Let me start by saying that I don’t really do Valentine’s Day, I find it all a bit too commercial, choosing instead to show love 52 weeks […]

How many brilliant jerks do you know?
How many brilliant jerks do you know? On a recent trip to the US, I visited Ground Zero, an area made iconic due to the events in September 2001. It is a breath-taking and tranquil place; an emotional reminder of how quickly things can change. We all know that change is the only constant, but […]

Happy Birthday Tendo! What the last five years have taught me. If Tendo had just started school… Tendo is five years old this month and I’m delighted we’ve reached this point.
