VIDEO & PODCAST: In this first episode of our series on running a fit social business, Pioneers Post host Tim West quizzes social entrepreneur Louisa Ziane of Toast Ale and expert Eddie Finch from Buzzacott accountants on four key 'Ms' to get right.
“The future comes very, very quickly.” Podcast guests Tej Dhami and Zoe Portlock on why a social enterprise's longevity means much, much more than dusty risk registers – and why current ways of working may put the wider movement itself at risk.
In our first Fit for the Future podcast in partnership with Buzzacott accountants, we talk to Anna Whitty from transport charity ECT and Natalie Campbell from Belu Water about how they led sustainable businesses through the Covid-19 crisis.
As social enterprises enter the post Covid-19 world, how can they mitigate the risks elevated by the pandemic? Now is the time to develop new revenue streams, review grant terms and ensure cash is working as effectively as possible.
Healthy internal processes and mechanisms aren’t just good for everyday efficiency – they can also drive more social impact. A primer (plus a handy checklist) for boards and CEOs, from the specialists at Buzzacott.
Hiring your first employee? Or managing a team – and realise you haven’t taken time yet to put sound HR processes in place? Consult our checklist to get up to speed.
Buzzacott partner Eddie Finch introduces our new series, which aims to help social entrepreneurs lock in the essential elements of a solid business that’s set for growth.
