This is an edited version of The Business Show on Marlow FM on 30th December 2021.

For a second consecutive show, it’s a first for us – this time it’s the first time ever, Lawrence and I co-hosted the show.  

If you’ve not already done so, I’d recommend you connect with Lawrence at https://www.linkedin.com/in/lawrencemwood/ , especially if you like some of the things he says within the show.

Our four discussion topics to mark the end of 2021 and to look ahead to whatever 2022 holds in store, are pivoting your business, business communication in the future, building a tribe in the hybrid working world and the changing culture in big business.

As a big Elton John fan, I sort of had to start the show with Elton and Ed Sheeran’s hit “Merry Christmas”.  You can hear it and see the video I talked about at https://youtu.be/Q_yuO8UNGmY .

We then move into talking about pivoting your business, looking at three categories of business – those who didn’t need to pivot but just needed to ride the wave, those who needed to pivot and didn’t, and those who needed to pivot and did.

Lawrence’s first track was Ariana Grande with “Santa Tell Me - go to https://youtu.be/nlR0MkrRklgto hear it for yourself.

Business communication was our next topic, and we looked at both internal and external communication including the need to consider carefully who you actually want to talk to.

My other music choice was Wizzard’s “I Wish It Could be Christmas Every Day” – me, a grinch – never!  Have a listen at https://youtu.be/IJPc7esgvsA and spot the similarity to Elton & Ed’s parody!

We then covered off building a tribe and the changing culture in big business, as the two topics seemed to fit together well.

Lawrence finishes the show with his other choice of music – The Darkness with “Christmas Time (Don’t Let the Bells End)” – to see if it brings you the same light and joy as it brings Lawrence, have a listen at https://youtu.be/lrVg1toMzuo.
