Do you need Project Management expertise?

It was interesting to hear from Mike Watson again recently. I worked for Mike many years ago when he was a successful project manager at AT&T ISTEL.

Mike has established MW Project Management Services with another ex-AT&T ISTEL colleague Steve Hill to deliver project management to a variety of large public and private sector organisations.

Good guys to run projects in my experience.

Name checked in Penny Power's new book

Penny Power's excellent new book on the phenomenon of Social Networking, "know me, like me, follow me" has just been launched.

It provides an excellent insight into the power of SN as a business tool and for fun. Unlike some of the other books on the market it is a story rather than an instruction book or user guide. Because it is a personal encounter with the subject the book is very engaging and, I guess, it is easier to learn the key lessons as a result.

Penny's credentials are impressive. She is one of the co-founders of Ecademy, which is a pretty successful site and a very effective speaker on business issues (she was a guest speaker at the National B2B Centre conference in 2008). The book isn't a puff-piece for Ecademy though. It is a well rounded review of lots of tools and techniques.

I was delighted to be asked to review it in advance and even more delighted that my name appears on a list of testimonials!

HMRC are after your "associated companies"

My clients Lewis Smith & Co. (the Dudley accountants) are warning SMEs to check their "associated company" status because the tax man is not as lenient as he once was.

Check out the news item on their website.

I wonder why?

Congratulations to Meng Zhang

Very pleased to announce that Meng Zhang one of the WMG MSc students I was supervising this year, as part of my National B2B Centre work, has been awarded his degree.

Meng has returned to China and looking for work in the consultancy industry.

He did an excellent dissertation on how SMEs can use online pr to gain business success.

Well done Meng

Lewis Smith & Co. prepare for the big move

My accountants and client Lewis Smith & Co. ( the Dudley accountants) are getting ready for an office move, hopefully, in early September.

It has been fun watching the transformation (via photos) of their new offices from slightly decrepit doctors surgery into lovely renovated building. It is nice to report that they are restoring a lot of original features as well as improving facilities for the staff and customers.

Various pics on the Lewis Smith & Co. news pages.

SItKneelChairs Blog

Excellent day at the B2B Centre yesterday with a visit from SitKneelChairs.

Fascinating exercise in helping people to take a step back and take a customer perspective of what they do.

SitKneelChairs products are hand made in Ash from local sourced renewable materials and they are supplied in 4 different sizes to suit different heights.

What we were able to do was to confirm to the family that these are key aspects of the products that set them apart from mass-produced imports that are often poorly made.

Good luck to Nigel Mason and his family.
