NEW ARTICLE ON THE MSB FORUM FROM ROBERT COUCHER

15/6/2020

0 Comments

 
Today, we're delighted to share an article from good friend, Robert Coucher, the International Editor of Octane Magazine which features classic and performance cars. 
 
Robert used to have a real job in advertising with Ogilvy & Mather ad agency. But his love was always old motor cars so he created Octane magazine in 2003 (Classic and performance cars) which expanded into Enzo, the Ferrari magazine, as well as Vantage, the Aston Martin magazine.  His magazines were sold to Dennis Publishing in 2007. Robert’s daily driver in London is a 1955 Jaguar XK 140 fixed head coupe.

FOUR PILLARS UPDATE

8/6/2020

0 Comments

 
Today we’re very pleased to welcome back Mark Hopwood, MD of South Western Railway, to update us on how the company continues to rise to the challenge of Covid-19.
 
When Mark featured on the Forum in April, the country was approaching the peak of the emergency. Daily passenger numbers into Waterloo had fallen from over 100,00 to just 6,000 – many of whom were key workers who still needed to travel to their jobs.
 
As the economy starts to reopen, and with more people travelling, Mark outlines the challenge for his team to keep customers safe through social distancing.
 
As with many businesses, SWR is increasingly relying on technology to keep the company operating – both for the comfort and safety of customers and also for internal stakeholders.
 
MSB is very grateful to Mark Hopwood for taking time in his busy schedule to update our Four Pillars Forum.

When crisis strikes, the best business leaders and their companies recognise their responsibility to the wider community and the difference which they can make in issues such as climate change and wealth disparity. 
 
Today, our colleague Carrie Hayton, well known to many MSB clients, writes on the subject of Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR), offering a personal perspective on the difference which her local Garden Centre, Castle Gardens in Dorset, made to the community during Covid-19 lockdown - a clear example of excellent CSR in practice!

THE MAGIC OF STORYTELLING – VIDEO NOW LIVE

3/6/2020

0 Comments

 
In yesterday's introduction from Alexander Mavros, we gained an insight to the magic of storytelling. Today, we hear from his Father, Patrick, the master of storytelling all the way from Zimbabwe. 
 
As Patrick recounts in his video, during a crisis such as a pandemic, this is a great opportunity to tell stories. He illustrates this with a wonderful African story about a honeyguide bird from which we can draw clear lessons during such challenging times.
 
With grateful thanks to our great friends, Patrick, Alexander and the Mavros family. We wish them and their business all success! 
 
Please do send us your feedback about Patrick's video and your own experiences of how stories have the power to make connections.

COVID-19: LIVING LIFE AT THE MARGINS

28/5/2020

0 Comments

 
For those living at the margins COVID19 has made life even more challenging, so it’s not surprising that their plight has made headlines with many falling victim to the virus itself. 
 
In his video contribution to The Four Pillars Forum, Alex Le Vey, Development Director at the Centre for Social Justice, outlines the vital work of the organisation and its response to the Covid-19 emergency – where the immediate decision was to scale-up for tackling the rocky road ahead.
 
Without taking the foot off the accelerator with existing projects, the CSJ ramped up its output to actively campaign for those suffering the immediacy of the pandemic, with domestic violence and school exclusions at the top of the agenda. 
 
With hard evidence and help from their network of grassroots organisations, the CSJ has launched a landmark study titled ‘Bounce Back Britain’ which charts the way forward and why the Government must prioritise the poorest and most vulnerable in society as our economy emerges from a very deep recession brought on by Covid-19. 
 
MSB is most grateful to Alex and his colleagues at CSJ for sharing their vital work with us in our Journal. We wish them every success and look forward to hearing more from them.
