On The Business Show on Marlow FM on 2nd Nov 23 my guests were leadership coach Claire Powell and education marketing expert Nick Richardson of Marketing Advisers, who joined me to talk about their work, and to discuss a range of business news stories.
The theme for my two music choices was peace – a little more of that around the world would be a good thing. First was the Plastic Ono Band with “Give peace a chance” – hear it at https://youtu.be/C3_0GqPvr4U?si=hY1KTarjnFQf1jbj .
Claire spoke about her leadership coaching business, which helps leaders to untangle their minds, become less stressed, and focus on their goals to get better results.

Nick then talked about his business, which is a specialist marketing & communications agency which supports schools and trusts by providing all aspects of school marketing.

His music choice was “Learning to fly” by Tom Petty & the Heartbreakers because it’s about learning, soaring forth, flying upwards – very apt! Hear it at https://youtu.be/s5BJXwNeKsQ?si=QJE9pjePsDYdMCCR .
Nick chose https://archive.ph/i3nIO – a topic on which Nick was passionate with potential wide-ranging ramifications.
Claire’s story is at https://www.businessleader.co.uk/brash-business-leaders-fading-away/ - are they fading away, and is that a good thing? And how is a certain Mr Musk doing on that front?
Next was Claire’s choice of music – “Ain’t Nobody” by Rufus & Chaka Khan. She chose it just because she loves it. Hear it at https://youtu.be/BNirQXe8HOA?si=8WlRCZHujWjQb0sm.
My story is at https://www.bucksfreepress.co.uk/news/23882448.malt-brewery-overrun-orders-closure-announcement/ . That tied in with the story at https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-67229923 - another firm that got it wrong, but is starting to return.
The last song was the second on the theme of peace – Elvis Costello and the Attractions with “(What’s so funny ‘bout) peace love and understanding” – you can hear it at https://youtu.be/Ssd3U_zicAI?si=yL1k_qXazwngcPUs.
