Fifteen years! When you start a business, you don't think that far ahead, or at least I didn't anyway. Now, standing here at Bentley Lewis's 15th anniversary, it feels like the right moment to reflect and anticipate what's to come. To capture this, I sat down with our amazing CMO, Ameera Qureshi, MCIM. We didn't just discuss the history, we went into the why and the how behind the journey. It was a conversation that touched on the raw experience of setting up and growing a company. The initial vision, the inevitable hurdles, the moments of doubt and the successes. We spoke candidly about leading through turbulent economic times. It's one thing to lead when things are going well, another entirely when navigating recessions, market shifts, and global uncertainty. The lessons learned in those periods are often the most profound, shaping not just the business but also yourself. And, of course, we looked forward. The world of work is transforming at an unprecedented pace. We explored what the 'future of work' truly means for senior executives and aspiring leaders. The skills needed, the structures evolving, and the mindset required to thrive. We also touched upon the broader economic forces at play and how they intersect with the executive search landscape.I hope this episode is a little window into the realities of building a business, leading, and constantly adapting in a dynamic global economy. We talked deeply about the challenges and opportunities that lie ahead for all of us in the executive world. If you're navigating your own entrepreneurial path, leading a team through change, or simply curious about the forces shaping the future of leadership and careers, I believe you'll find valuable insights in this conversation. I'd love to hear your thoughts. --------

Does how you look and show up for an interview matter? It's very likely to have a big impact on potential employers and probably to potential clients too. That's the feedback one candidate in New York got for the reason she didn't get the job."She arrived at the job interview without make-up." I'm certainly not advocating for companies to select based on looks, in fact quite the opposite. And in this case, it was about make-up. If you find someone with an incredible attitude and potential, you can coach them on the other things. However, whether we like it or not, first impressions do matter. Humans make quick decisions about others based on things like appearance, body language, tone of voice. So if you are about to interview for a great job, do all you can to give yourself the best chance of success. The article, click to read

Employees are reshaping the narrative around layoffs and work-life balance. Lews Maleh and Jamie Craw discuss a growing trend among workers to record and share their layoff experiences on social media platforms like TikTok, seeking feedback, solidarity, and sometimes, a form of digital revenge. This trend is demystifying layoffs and challenging the stigma associated with job loss, as workers openly discuss their experiences and feelings in a public forum.But it's not just about layoffs. Employees are increasingly unwilling to compromise their health and work-life balance for early meetings or overtime hours.The culture of overwork is being scrutinised, and workers are advocating for more flexible, human-friendly schedules that respect personal time and wellbeing. These trends reflect a shift in workplace dynamics, with employees leveraging digital platforms to voice their experiences and expectations. As we navigate these changes, it's essential for employers to listen, adapt, and foster an environment that respects both the professional and personal lives of their workforce. ----- Follow us: Bentley Lewis Newsletter: http://bit.ly/2F0bq2i Bentley Lewis Website: http://www.bentleylewis.com Bentley Lewis LinkedIn: / bentley-l. .
