In a special programme broadcast live from the Atrium in Quay House at MediaCityUK, Paul Lewis discusses a momentous change in the way banks treat customers who have money stolen from their bank accounts by what is called Authorised Push Payment Fraud. In 2023 a record number of people lost hundreds of millions of pounds to thieves who tricked them, manipulated them and then drained their bank accounts.On October 7th new rules will come into force which mean nearly all transfers will be covered, so that victims will be refunded in the vast majority of cases up to a limit of £85,000.Money Box gets hundreds of emails from people who've lost money to scams and frauds and this will be life changing for those who find themselves a victim of this kind of crime. To mark this change, the team will be joined by a panel of experts and people who've lost thousands of pounds in these sort of scams.

They say that if you give a man a fish you can feed him for a day, but teach a man to fish and you can feed him for a lifetime. But what happens if you give two radio presenters 11 different screens in a single studio? I'll tell you what happens: they'll produce radio that's exciting and groundbreaking in equal measure, and that's something you just can't teach. To get us into the mood for festival season Elis and John speak to a a Glastonbury Unsung Hero, John flexes his geographical muscles in a Made Up Game, Elis struggles to pinpoint a Welsh accent and Producer Dave details his bleak Friday (live from the comfort of MediaCityUK).

Review of Where is My Office? Reimagining the Workplace for the 21st Century by Chris Kane. Available from Bloomsbury here. In the modern age of remote working and flexible work hours, why have most office spaces remained relatively unchanged for decades? In Where is My Office?, Chris Kane draws upon his extensive knowledge and experience in commercial property to investigate the new-found significance of innovative corporate real estate thinking in the modern workplace. With the rise of agile working, hot-desking and new technological innovations, the traditional office space no longer serves the needs of the modern workforce. With a foreword from Mark Thompson, CEO of The New York Times, this fascinating book highlights the bold new solutions to workplace practices which have the potential to invigorate employee productivity while simultaneously trimming excess costs. Chris poses his ground-breaking ‘Smart Value’ formula which underpinned the success of his redevelopment of the property portfolio of the BBC, and which can be adapted to enact meaningful and lasting organizational change in any business. This formula is supported through in-depth case studies from Chris’s prestigious career, while interviews with prolific industry insiders such as Ronen Journo, SVP of WeWork and Mark Dixon, founder of Regus, provide fascinating insights into the ground-breaking strategies that are transforming the commercial property sector. Where is My Office? is a must-read for any business leader looking to revitalise their workplace and develop a greater understanding of the beneficial impacts that innovative workplace strategies can have upon their organization’s success. Where is My Office? Reimagining the Workplace for the 21st Century, reviewed What a timely title and topic for a book! It makes sense to address these issues, and look at what we do, why we do it, and do we really need to do it this way. Chris Kane has good experience to be able to write this book too, as he has “worked in the Corporate Real Estate sector for over thirty years, having operated as the Vice President of International Corporate Real Estate for The Walt Disney Company, before acting as Head of Corporate Real Estate at the BBC, where he was responsible for the creation of MediaCityUK in Salford and oversaw the £1bn development of Broadcasting House”. One of the best aspects of this book is the whole second part, chapters seven to nine, where he shares his own experiences of the BBC’s shake up, rationalisation and relocation of resources, production studios and talent. This case study is a fascinating read and really helps to demonstrate and exemplify the concepts he outlines in the first part of the book. The BBC did many things well, and readdessed a legacy, higgidly piggedly distribution of buildings and locations in London. Many of which had to have additional sound proofing to counter the rumble of underground tube trains passing by. Over a relatively short period, 2004 to 2018, this was overhauled and many key units were shipped out to Manchester, Wales and Scotland among other places. Maybe we don’t even need offices anymore, but perhaps before that radical move to remote and completely distant working, this book outlines some interesting ideas in terms of what can be done, and how to do it well. If you are in charge of buildings, offices, and company real estate this is a good and timely book to read. More about Irish Tech News and Business Showcase here.
