It's a lot: search, connect, schedule, first interviews, follow-ups, feedback loops — all while juggling a scaling business — and you STILL might not end up with the right person.It struck me that so many of the incredible guests on Brand Growth Heroes have shared absolute gold when it comes to building teams — how they hire, how they lead, and what they've learned when it all goes wrong.So the brilliant crew at MKJ Ignite - Billy, Paul and Immy, have gone through the Brand Growth Heroes archives and handpicked some snippets from the founders of your favourite challenger brands (think Olipop, Freja Bone Broth, Child's Farm, Perfect Ted and Tony's Chocolonely), pulling out the best people insights.  And as a result....BGH SHORTS: The People Series was born!Short 5 min episodes. Golden nuggets. Actionable insights Every 2 weeks, we'll drop a new 5-minute clip - so don't forget to HIT FOLLOW! If you're wondering whether or not you need help with your recruitment, or would like to ask for some advice, you can book a no-obligation call with Billy - or anyone on the team - here!Connect with Billy Maddock on LinkedInConnect with Immy Southwell on LinkedInConnect with Paul Jones on LinkedInFollow MKJ Ignite on InstagramConnect with MKJ Ignite on LinkedIn

What kind of career helps to make a great future entrepreneur? In this week's Golden Nugget, you can hear all about the career trajectory of Freddy Ward, co-founder of Wild Deo, before he took the leap into 'founderdom'.

This episode was sparked by a recent chat I had with Helen Neal from HN Communications. We covered loads of ground around sustainability and transparency, but one theme really stood out to me - and that was humility in brand communication. It got me thinking: in the built environment, we're often working on big, complex, long-term change. That makes messaging tricky because let's face it, not everything's sorted. And there is a lot of focus on what happens when something is complete, and little focus on progress over perfection.   So, what if we took a leaf out of the consumer brand playbook? I thought it would be interesting if we looked at how brands like Patagonia or Tony's Chocolonely talk about progress and imperfection, and applied that to how we communicate about our own sustainability efforts? So, let's dive in!

Wie de naam Kaapverdië letterlijk neemt en een met regenwoud begroeide Groene Kaap verwacht, kan nog wel eens bedrogen uitkomen. Wie zijn marslander alvast afstoft voor deze buitenaardse eilanden, zit dichter in de buurt. Een absoluut einde-van-de-wereld-gevoel, de laatste Afrikaanse eilanden voordat er niets anders is dan water voordat de Nieuwe Wereld in zicht komt. En wie eindelijk aankomt in de Amerika's, kan daar de gevolgen aanschouwen van het voornaamste Kaapverdische exportproduct. Berg je maar. Maar mocht dit wat ver weg klinken, Kaapverdië is verrassend dichtbij en dat mogen Nederlanders best weten. Tijd om de banden aan te halen! We zijn nooit volledig, wel origineel.

Waar ‘ze leefden nog lang en gelukkig' vroeger nog gelijk stond aan een (levenslange) monogame relatie, is dat nu wel anders. Er is steeds meer ruimte voor andersoortige relaties en lang niet iedereen droomt van ‘levenslang'. Of je nou op zoek bent naar avontuurtje zonder strings attached, een open of polyamoreuze relatie: het komt vaak al aan bod op je datingprofiel of tijdens een eerste date. Hoe verhouden we ons tot deze shift? Is monogamie mens eigen of verzonnen? Waar lopen singles tegenaan en wat kunnen we leren van het dierenrijk?

We hebben het over kunst, cultuur, Jim Bakkum in combinatie met de oma van Malou en esthetisch orgasmeren in combinatie met de hotelkamer van Tatjana. Een levensvraag over schuldgevoel. Een getrouwde man wordt verliefd op jou en kiest ervoor om met jou te zijn. Jullie zijn gelukkig, maar toch knaagt er iets — wat te doen?

Sinds Vadertje Staat niet meer zorgt voor Mother Russia, is het land verweesd. De babushka's en gopniks zijn uitgeleverd aan graaiende oligarchen en corrupte apparatsjiks. Een bodemloze put aan bodemschatten financiert Ruslands hobby's op het wereldtoneel: sabotage, ontregeling en dubieuze militaire avonturen. Als je zelf niet meer toekomt aan opbouwen, dan breek je je concurrenten maar af. Het grootste land ter wereld als enfant terrible, als gevreesde pestkop, dat is niet hoe de scheppers van glasnost en perestrojka het bedoeld hadden. Rusland lijkt weer terug bij af, gezien de lange traditie van onvrijheid en repressie. Wat, lieve luisteraars, is er nog over van het Rusland van Tsjechov, Tolstoj en Tsjaikovski? We zijn nooit volledig, wel origineel. Geen experts, maar wel liefhebbers. Hebben we tóch iets verkeerd gezegd of zijn we iets cruciaals vergeten? Volg ons en laat het weten.

Het is donderdag 6 maart! Tina neemt je mee door het laatste medianieuws.

Natuurlijk ontbreken de kijkcijfers, kijkersvragen en de kijktip niet in een gloednieuwe Tina’s TV Update! Wil je adverteren in deze podcast? Neem dan contact op via sales@audiohuis.com.

We willen het graag even hebben over single zijn en feminisme; op welke manieren hebben de twee met elkaar te maken? En we duiken weer eens in onze inbox in voor jullie vragen. Hoe kijken we naar de toekomst van single zijn? Gaan wij dezelfde kant op als Japan en wat vinden we van AI als steunpilaar (of potentiële geliefde)? En wat als je getrouwd bent, maar heimwee hebt naar je leven als single?

Tatjana is fan — bij voorbaat al, van een kunstenares en Malou vindt dat geestig. Minder geestig vinden we de steeds hogere lat voor een progressief gesprek over abortus en ons recht op veilige zorg en zekerheid. May the Lord open en waar de fuck zijn de mannen? Het is stil, té stil. Brotherhood, vriendenclub, voetbalteam, gozers: 8 maart is ook van jullie.

In het koloniale dobbelspel dat het lot van de Caraïbische eilanden zou bepalen, was het maar afwachten of je hoofdstad, zeg, Port-au-Prince of Kralendijk zou gaan heten. Of Santo Domingo of Bridgeport. Of voor de geopolitiek schizofrene eilanden, Port of Spain. Dus als je Puerto Rico heet en je hoofdstad is San Juan, danste je vroeger vast naar de pijpen van Madrid. Niets nieuws onder de zon, dus. Maar als je nu luistert naar bevelen uit Washington, dan bevind je je in een unieke situatie. En zo zijn er meer Amerikanen die Puerto Ricaanse muzieksterren kennen dan Amerikanen die überhaupt weten dat Puerto Rico bestaat. Laat staan dat the stars and stripes er wapperen. Daarom brengen we vandaag een ode aan Puerto Rico, en leven we la vida loca. Dus let's get loud, maar wel een beetje despacito graag.We zijn nooit volledig, wel origineel. Geen experts, maar wel liefhebbers. Hebben we tóch iets verkeerd gezegd of zijn we iets cruciaals vergeten? Volg ons en laat het weten.

Op volwassen leeftijd nieuwe vrienden maken gaat vaak een stuk moeizamer dan eerder in je leven, maar: geen zorgen, wij zijn er om je te helpen! Wat maakt het zo moeilijk na je 30e nog vrienden te maken? En welke strategieën kun je toepassen om jouw friendship crush succesvol binnen te hengelen? Het is spannend, we know, maar met onze praktische tips durf je hopelijk je comfortzone een beetje op te rekken. En wie weet hou je daar wel een nieuwe bestie aan over.

Malou liked een foto van de nieuwe vriendin van een ex (super) en Tatjana haar ego wordt flink op de proef gesteld. Hoe zorg je ervoor geen afgunstige bitchteef te worden terwijl je diep van binnen doordrenkt bent van jaloezie? Een levensvraag over de kinderwens: wel of geen relatie beëindigen bij twijfel partner? Fijne week schatjes!

Snaxshot, the curatorial and slightly mercurial grocery newsletter and community, has grown into an industry force, read by CPG executives and members of food media on a near-religious level.

About Tony's Chocolonely Tony's Chocolonely is an impact company that makes chocolate, not the other way around. Tony's Chocolonely's vision is to end exploitation in cocoa. Not just their own chocolate, but all chocolate worldwide.  The company was founded in 2005 by 3 journalists from the Dutch TV show ‘Keuringsdienst van Waarde' after they discovered that the world's largest chocolate manufacturers were buying cocoa from plantations that used illegal child labor and forced labor.  Since then, Tony's Chocolonely has dedicated its efforts to raising awareness of and eliminating inequality in the chocolate industry. Tony's Chocolonely leads by example, building direct, long-term relationships with cocoa farmers in Ghana and Ivory Coast, paying them a higher price and working together to solve the underlying causes of exploitation.  Tony's Chocolonely wants to inspire the industry as a whole to make exploitation free the norm in chocolate. They believe that being a better business should be the norm, not the exception. The brand has grown to become the market leader in the Netherlands and its bars are now available almost worldwide, with offices in the Netherlands, USA, UK and Germany.  Tony's Chocolonely is a B-Corp and Fairtrade-certified company.

On this episode, I release the full recording from our second ever live podcast show. It was filmed at the Just Trek Podcast 4 Year Anniversary celebration on Sat, April 6th at the Happier Camper Outdoor Showroom + Happier Cafe here in Los Angeles. The guest panel featured SoCal Hometown Heroes such as Karla Amador (founder of @52hikechallenge), Cris Hazzard (creator of HikingGuy.com), Anjelica Avella (Lead Protagonist / Story Producer in the film “Forward”), and myself as the moderator. We chatted about each of their impactful work in the community, their most meaningful outdoor adventures / nature experiences, what the community each has cultivated has taught them, and the one must do experience that any outdoor enthusiast should at least do once.  After the group discussion, we opened up a live Q&A to the audience so that everyone could join in on the fun and ask the guests their own questions.

It's Easter this weekend, so for the season of chocolate we thought we'd take Shortcuts off the beaten track and look at the world of chocolate production. Where does chocolate come from, and why are prices about to soar? Squiz recommends: Watching: The wonderful John Oliver of Last Week Tonight has his own segment on chocolate, which covers a lot of the same ground but with better jokes… Eating: Tony's Chocolonely is a Dutch brand that was started by a journalist called Teun van de Keuken. He was looking into child labour in the chocolate industry, and he then wanted to prove that he could make delicious, profitable chocolate without child labour.
