Top 5 mistakes when working with celebrity cofounders (and how to avoid them)
The truth is many people think celebrities are generally overrated. They may get sucked into the content on their social feeds, enjoy seeing Tom Cruise fly a jet, and likely even indulge in a tequila shot or two from ER’s oldest heartthrob.

Owing to The Great Resignation, businesses and how they run have changed drastically.

The term ‘ESG’ fails to capture the impact of what a responsible business is – but that doesn’t mean we should ignore it
Although it seems ESG’s rise to the top of the news agenda was swift, focus on its fundamental elements – Environment, Social, and Corporate Governance – are nothing new. Previously understood through the term ‘CSR’ or corporate social responsibility, many agree that ESG is merely the newest edition in a constant rebrand of the same principles. And in extreme cases, it’s considered a deceptive way of boosting corporate reputation: a guise distracting the industry from a lack of action being taken.
