Issue 57 of Businesslife is now available online.
Our cover feature poses the question: should your business dump social media? With pub chain Wetherspoons having got rid of all their social channels, should other firms follow suit? Or does social play a vital role for modern businesses, providing they use it strategically?
This issue’s lead interview is with Mark Boleat, the former political leader of the City of London. Born and raised in Jersey, he shares some candid opinions on the strengths and weaknesses of the Channel Islands.
And with AIFMD celebrating its fifth anniversary, we canvas expert opinion on whether the impact on Guernsey and Jersey has been as bad as many predicted, and if the Directive has actually achieved everything it set out to achieve.
Nick Kirby, Editor-in-Chief of Businesslife, says: “We all know that social media for businesses can be a total minefield, so Wetherspoons’ decision was a really interesting one. And it made for the basis of a really thought-provoking read.”
Other features in this issue include:
• Do wealthy female clients prefer to work with female advisers?
• Philanthropy through the Channel Islands
• The need for business resilience
• How Guernsey and Jersey are helping fund global infrastructure projects
• How confirmation bias might affect businesses
• And much more…
