These are, indeed, unprecedented times! It’s important, therefore, to know where you stand contractually and what legal implications there may be if you cannot provide services to others or they cannot provide services to you that are contractually bound to be fulfilled. As with all contracts, they have to be legally enforceable agreements.

Well before the UK Government advised businesses to work remotely where possible, we took the decision to make the move. We switched to remote working on 10th March. We called a meeting that morning and had transitioned to remote working by the time everyone left that evening. We haven’t been back to the office since that day.
It’s now over a month since we moved from actual office to virtual office. You won’t be surprised to hear that we’ve learned a lot in this time. Here are some tips to help you and your team work remotely, based on our experience to date:

As the Covid-19 pandemic spreads, it is important for companies of all sizes to make a contribution to help contain and fight the virus. We are seeing many companies coming forward and taking action. One way to help is by providing something that we all need in the current circumstances, for example, access to hand sanitizer.
This is where we realized that at ChargedUp, Europe’s largest phone charging network, we can make our contribution.
We are switching our network of charging stations to hand sanitizer stations. We have named this initiative CleanedUp and aim to give our support to the UK’s efforts to combat COVID-19.

Employees in the UK take over 13 million sick days per year as a result of work-related stress, depression, and other mental health issues. Another important statistic is that stress costs the British economy almost £4 billion a year.
Looking after employee wellbeing is clearly of great importance yet REBA (Reward & Employment Benefits Association) reports that only 8% of boards of directors actively drive their company’s wellbeing policy.

When you come back from holiday what do you do with the local currency that you still have in your pocket or purse? There is a good chance that you will put it into a drawer or perhaps a special container and tell yourself that you will use it when you next travel to that country. Some organized people even put the spare cash into carefully labeled envelopes and file them away for future use.
But what happens when you travel abroad again? Quite often you may find yourself at the airport kicking yourself because you have forgotten to bring the spare notes with you. Just when you need them to give a tip to a taxi driver.

When you’re an athlete your sport is a calling, not a job. It is driven by your passion and takes great determination and perseverance for you to succeed.
To build a career or business out of playing your sport, you will need to channel all your passion. The difficulty is keeping things in perspective. It’s a buzz when your training is going well and you are winning, but what happens if you get injured or need to retire early for health reasons?
Those athletes who do not plan for their career after sports often find life really tough. With some careful planning, however, it is possible to build a successful business out of your sports career.
As a professional basketball player, I reached the height of my fame during the 1988 Seoul Summer Olympics when I was just 19 years old. Peaking so early brought me great fame and fortune but it wasn’t enough to set me up for life. If I was going to have a life after sports, I knew I needed to carefully manage my career from day one.

Here are my top tips that I hope will help you to build a business using your sports career as a launchpad to success in a new arena.

In addition to defining what to do, how, and when, business processes are a fundamental part of your company’s culture, expressing who you are, your values, and why you do what you do. By having clear processes and following them rigorously, your business will maintain consistent quality, service and brand experience.
Having said that, processes also need to grow and evolve in response to internal and external pressures. Processes that work for a small startup with a single product won’t work for a medium-sized business with hundreds of employees and a full catalog of products or a large enterprise with multiple offices around the world.

Although for every company it is important to put the client first, it is equally important to make sure your staff is engaged. This means that they feel connected to the company/business and are motivated to do a good job.
