We have a leadership crisis in this country. Not only from a talent standpoint but from the hidden costs associated with poor performance in various leadership positions at present. Studies by such notable national recruiting firms like Challenger, Grey & Christmas chronicle the costs associated with executive turn over and the costs to companies leading up to and after the executive is gone. And while companies tend to resist the decision to remove an executive (unless laws are broken or financial impropriety takes place) many wait way too long to address early…

Business owners are a special breed. At some point, they decided that working for themselves (despite all the perils that come with this occupational choice) is a better path to their version of success than working for someone else. In the beginning, passion and lofty goals can be a real elixir for the journey ahead.

Perhaps it is down to concerns over the expiry of the stamp duty tax break in October, or worries over an increasing reliance on Help-to-Buy, or the potential impact of the proposed April 2022 launch of the Residential Property Developer Tax, but investors do not seem unduly moved by Barratt Developments’ strong full-year results. Perhaps it is just down to the absence of any incremental good news, but the shares are not responding to publication of healthy profits, a net cash balance sheet and a dividend that equates to a historic…

There’s no doubting the strength of the sustainable investment tide, as last year responsible funds accounted for around a third of overall industry sales. This year looks set to be even bigger, and on current trends will eclipse 2020 to post a new record for ethical fund sales.
