I loved this cracking little idea to encourage founders to think about their business each day. Taken from the book ‘The Road Less Stupid‘, I came across it via an email from David Hieatt, Co founder of ‘Do Lectures’ and Hiut Denim (I’m a big fan of both). Why prioritise ‘thinking’
Anyone who has had the pleasure of seeing my face (and the backdrop of books behind it) on a BlueJeans call will testify to my love of books. I’m often unapologetically thrusting new reads or interesting articles toward my computer camera or posting out books to those I think will

This is a postcard I produced for our team at agenda21 about 5 years ago. I found it in a box of old papers last year. When we were working on our values, I wanted everyone to start challenging their own attitudes about work and the way we behave. I
The response to a recent post on Linkedin about the use of Calendly (a diary management app) was significantly more heated than I had expected. Is it the best and most effective way to manage our time, or will clients see it as just plain rude? Some really great thoughts
