Dawn raids by competition authorities are never expected and always unwelcome. From the moment investigators arrive at your business, and potentially your home, to the moment they leave, you are at risk of substantial fines for even the slightest misstep.   In this article for the New Law Journal, Will Radcliffe and I explore some of the latest trends in dawn raid practices across a range of jurisdictions and break down how modern working practices impact both employers’ and employees’ potential liability.

I will always have a heart for #smallbusinessowners #businessowners as I grew up in and around four (4) family-owned businesses myself in a small town in N. Florida. I understand both the challenges, the liabilities, and the budgetary considerations of operating a small business. And likewise, I understand the contributions of *each* team member. Take one out of play, for personal or professional reasons, and it has ripple effects translating to loss of operations, productivity and profits. This can even apply to something tragically happening to a family member of one of your employees. Same effect. So how do you get ahead of such scenarios? Education and training! I have put together two distinct #onlinecourses for #employeetraining to help address some of the top concerns today related to physical, data and reputational risks, whether your employees are internal and/or external to the main office. A third option offered is a combination of both. More info in the link below in the comments section. For any #insurancecompany #insurancebroker #lawfirm dealing with such small businesses, let's maybe talk about an in-person client education value-add event to assist 'YOU' in assisting your clients. But I know someone who can help. #defensebydesign

I'm excited to be going back on tour with my new keynote, "Build Belonging," which I'll be sharing for the first time next week in Seattle for Security Benefits.  Since the mid-1990s, I've emphasized that selling great products and services isn’t enough...clients want more.  While I still discuss the Experience Economy, this keynote dives into what's next: building a community with an almost cult-like following.  Becoming a commodity is a choice...so is becoming a story that everyone shares.  The good news? This shift isn’t as challenging as it might seem.  Every business must become a community or risk becoming a casualty. #keynotespeakers #keynotespeaking #fallevents #businesscoach
