What’s your golden rule?

What is your most hated business expression?

“Purpose” or “Chicken & the egg”

How can marketers be braver?

Grassroots culture. Invest in it.  

What’s the biggest risk you’ve taken in your career?

Giving up a job in Mayfair to turn a Facebook Group into a career.

Which leader do you admire most and why?

Robin Millar CBE – as mentioned before. Listen to his Desert Island Discs, you’ll get it…

What’s your favourite word?
