Death Camps and Doughnuts

I have a few doughnuts on my plate and there was one I was looking at with enthusiasm. Then someone took the jam out of it. Well, of course, they didn’t. I did. I tried something and it did not work and I am a little pissed off. However, the reason I am pissed off is that the Bernie who is writing this would not have laid the ground work to make that thing not work in the first place. Sorry, I am being a bit cryptic here, it is not for shame or legal reasons – I am hoping by talking about t

Top Ten Intern Tips

What do you want Maria to leave with? Tomorrow the @90mainyard crew, #supercoolwife and #babybernie say goodbye to Maria, her next stop is Stockholm to hang with the Bassett Hounds and Jon Buscall to do some grown up work. It has been a joy introducing Maria to people here in London and Liverpool, we were lucky that so many good things like Ouishare Events, Echo Event, Mark Shafer and the Pitch Day for National Business Awards with HRH Duke of York happened in the week she was here!

Late Show 2011 Blog - Are you soaring or boring? by @julie_hall #llbs

Last week, Bernie shared that he was tired of bland events about bland business issues with bland people selling bland global solutions.  And I feel his pain.  As we begin 2011 and the same old emails start hitting my inbox,  I truly want to weep with boredom.  Where is the interest, where is the new, where is the exciting?  As each day passes more people and companies are chasing an ever reducing pot of money to keep themselves going.  And most of appear to be falling into the trap of being

#TAGtribe Blog by @jamespoulter A New Years Thought - Lets Get Real!

2 things prompted this little thought, which in it’s self has turned into a new years resolution for me that may be one of the hardest to keep out there.   It’s not got anything to do with quitting something, or starting up something new, but actually is about doing something that we need to overcome in ourselves. Not just me, but all of us. The two things that prompted this resolution are these: 1. This post from Bernie about being connected to people. 2. This video from Tony Porte

Late Show 2011 Blog - Lesson Learned? by @lucyjpayne #llbs

Lesson Learned? As you start reading this post you are probably thinking - “who is she?” and you’d be very right in thinking that. In all honesty, I am no-one special. I am Lucy Payne, I work in Social Media Marketing, I have lived in London for 5 Months, and I am speaking at January’s Late Late Breakfast show. Why? Because apparently, I have something to say. Clearly I shoot my opinionated Welsh mouth off way too much, because for the second month in a row I’ve agreed to speak in public.

“Showing up is 80% of how you Community-cate” #llbs

We say showing up is what counts these days, 17 zillion followers online? Great if you are Jay-Z, Barrack Obama (who) or Apple because that is appropriate to their relationship with their fans and customers. Our question is how do you communicate with your community? There is a very strong case to say that we live in an ‘engagement economy’ perhaps you might want to interpret this as ‘engage with someone and they will enter your economy.’ People that show up consistently in times

You two faced........! Why is that a good idea?

This Week we are featuring a guest post from each of our Late Late Breakfast Show  Speakers next up is Steve Trister!  Why being “Two Faced” is brilliant!  The art of being "Two Faced" in this instance does not take on the standard meaning of "speaking behind someone's back". In this case it's about tapping into the many facets we all have in our personality.  This is something that as an actor, it's critical for me to be aware of and a real eye opener.
