It is that time of year when we take a moment to reflect on the things we are most grateful for. When it comes to me thinking about my business, it is very easy. There are two things I am most grateful for... 1) My amazing team! 2) My amazing clients! Today, we’re going to talk about the power of “team” and how to scale your business. I couldn’t scale my own business the way I have if I didn’t have the strong support of great team members behind me. I’m happy to share the process of how to build your team in your own business. This is a process that I walk my clients through and have personally experienced in my business. The steps... 1. Face Your Blocks 2. Systematically Hire 3. Make Sure you Have a Good Rapport with your Assistant before Hiring Read all about how to put these items into action: https://buff.ly/3QnUqb0 #Assistants4Hire #A4HBlog #Teamwork #ThePowerOfTeam #ScalingBusiness

Bond Global are on the road again……..🏎   Our first design thinking session was all about giving our awesome team a platform to voice their thoughts on what's working, what needs improving, and what more they want to see. When they spoke up and asked for more L&D sessions, we knew we had to deliver!   That's why we're dedicating the whole year to being L&D focused!! Ben Rutter and I are starting with a month long roadshow, woohoo! 🎉I can't wait to see our teams in Manchester, Birmingham, St Albans and not forgetting today’s lovely team in Swindon.   We're really passionate about making sure our people are happy, growing and have a voice in how Bond is shaped, because, if you hire great people and treat them well, the rest is easy! 💗   At a time when most companies can’t invest in their people, I’m proud we’re not slowing down and remaining people first. Stay tuned for more updates on how we're shaping the future of Bond, together! 💪   Robert Hussey, Alex Shawe, Dean Clark, Hannah Zara Turner, Laura Morgan, Kate S., Charlotte Griffiths, Beth Payne, Nikita E., Tom Foreman (MSc), Matthew Ryan #DesignThinking #LearningAndDevelopment #PeopleFirst #TeamBonding

I spent the early '00s social auditing post office closures, working to the Government's policy that the significant challenges to the network meant rationalisation was needed, with 2,500 subpostmasters offered compensation for closure. We saved some, but that's an aside at this point, apart from my worry that in doing so the subpostmaster was left with a poisoned chalice. Horizon at the time was, of course, POL's other big efficiency programme and I wonder now its role in 🔎 which subpostmasters volunteered for closure, which sometimes meant the 'wrong' post office closing in an area; 🔎 in Post Office Ltd's understanding of the viability of the network; and 🔎 the number of post offices that closed before consultation, preventing communities' from having a voice, and the subpostmaster from getting compensation (average £65k) 🔎Post Office reducing its initial target of compensated closures from 3,000 to 2,500 - was it the '555' that made this difference, to the benefit of POL and Government funding? Over the past week I've heard numerous comparisons with other scandals such as the infected blood inquiry and the treatment of WASPI women. Such inquiries require evidence, and so a particular hero of the Horizon story is Richard Roll, the ex-Fujitsu whistleblower. And with that I invite you to read my successor's blog and consider its relevance in other sectors. The Horizon scandal may be the biggest miscarriage of justice, but I hope it gives the media more appetite to tell the stories of the 'Davids', and more confidence to those wanting to blow the whistle on wrongdoing. Whether the harm is to people, property or the planet.

Listen to the conversation here: https://buff.ly/4akK4kf I am so excited to share with you all this conversation with Matt McCain and Michael Boychuk, the Co-Founders of Little Hands of Stone. Both of their first jobs end in truly wild fashion that you'll not want to miss. They share a bit of their journey to getting to where they are today with their own creative agency. They share about not "buying the truck," which is a great metaphor about not overreaching and spending too much at the start up of a company. They share about the origin of the name of their company, Little Hands of Stone and how it applies to their approach to business. They share about how they learned that they needed to grow the business differently and the shock that that was. As business partners they talk about having a healthy and honest partnership in the work that they do, especially around how much they choose to work each week. They talk about how important the partnership has been for them as they are able to balance each other out and respect each other even when they disagree on what to do.
