As I’ve said quite explicitly in my blog previously, I intend on one day being an entrepreneur. I don’t mean that I want to one day be rich and famous and own an island somewhere (although, I won’t lie, I wouldn’t say no if somebody gave me one), I mean that I want to be [...]
I have literally just returned from a two day team development trip in Snowdonia and have learnt and experienced so much that I feel I just have to blog about it! I am firmly of the opinion that a well run team development trip is a great management initiative and brings terrific value to a [...]
It isn’t easy to always blog. People are expected to blog regularly and sometimes, you just can’t think of anything to write. There’s no use writing for the sake of it though, if you’re not inspired, you probably just don’t have anything interesting to say. So, for a company looking to encourage employees to blog, [...]

In the wake of recent scandals involving world famous sportsmen, would similar revelations about high-profile business people affect your opinion of their professional abilities? What’s the issue? The recent “scandals” involving Tiger Woods and John Terry have made a lot of noise in the media and press and this is understandable. They are influential people [...]
I’ve been meaning to blog about this for a while and I was reminded yesterday by @agencynet‘s fantastic website (http://www.agencynet.com). The reason this site reminded me of this notion is because their amazing site makes the company visible to all (not literally, I obviously understand that it’s just a flash animation). Staff have their Twitter [...]
I’ve been thinking about this quite a bit recently and realised that I started a series of posts entitled “University of Life” (cheesy I know!) a while back. The aim of the series is to show that University can obviously increases career prospects but there are so many things outside of studying that can help [...]
