This is going somewhere, please stick with me. So doing the working out loud thing is become more solid for me. Posting what ‘one’s blog’ is making is a daring way of making it work and offering something for people to follow and hopefully collaberate and chip in with advice and comments too. I am […]

#TAGtribe Blog SME’s – victims of their own success by @lenarobinson
Over the years I’ve discovered SME’s who’ve become victims of their own success. They might’ve launched a ground breaking innovation, which has proved extremely popular; perhaps they’ve smashed their sales targets. They have been so successful that the business has reached breaking point. They’re awake at 3am worrying about how they’re going to keep all […]
To Fix or Not To Fix – Soon Your Mortgage Decision Will Be Made For You by Ed Sayers
It’s been widely reported that inflation has increased to 3.7% (CPI).

We are not seeing any signs of recovery in […]
Cash is King – Carbon is Queen SME 2.0 Blog by @EEPaul #tagtribe
Earlier this year, I was asked to write a short piece for Construction Manager magazine about the top 10 technology trends in construction (see blog post). Several of the trends I wrote about will have a much wider influence that many people think, particularly given the importance of the construction industry to the economy as a […]
Green with envy…
Innocent bystander suggested an examination of the emotion of envy as a clear route to goal setting. I was slightly suspicious of this suggestion at first and realised that my well trained Catholic guilt (there is an Albatross to ones development if ever there was one) automatically dissuaded me from an constructive entertainment of this ‘sin’ […]
