This is a landmark episode as it's our 100th!!Therefore a landmark episode requires a guest of equal stature and I'm delighted to be joined by Annette Andrews.Annette has an incredibly fascinating career story to share. From growing up and moving countries ( and schools) reguarly due to her Dad's job, she strongly considered joining the Army but a significant sporting injury meant that was no longer an option.Unsure of what she then wanted to do with her life, some summer work at a local hospital put her under the tutelage of the HR Director. He encouraged Annette to apply for HR graduate schemes which led to her joining Ford where she stayed for the next 18 years, gaining an MBA along the way.She then joined Lloyds Bank right before the global financial crash in 2008 and was on the actual trading floor the day the markets crashed. This led to supporting the huge transition project of bringing together Lloyds and Bank of Scotland as one new banking group.Annette moved to the US in a Head of HR role for Lloyds but she explains how various things going on in her personal life meant she needed something different from her career during this period and a role that demanded less from her. This is common to so many during their careers and it's encouraging to hear someone with such a stellar career recognise that there may be a time when we need to take our foot of the gas for a while and seek out something more condusive with our personal lives.Then when she was ready to tackle a larger role and a big challenge once again she moved to Lloyds of London as Chief People Officer.Annette now has a portfolio career doing HR Consultancy, Coaching, working as a Non-Exec Director, and doing Speaking events.This is an incredible episode that covers so much, especially about how Annette has pulled on the experiences throughout her life to aid her career but how life also impacts the decisions we make at times too.I hope you enjoy it as much as I did.

We reflect on his career, why he received elocution lessons and how diversity in broadcasting has changed. We also touch upon the BBC's coverage of the Israel-Gaza war. "I, as a black person, also have a real empathy with what Jewish staff members are going through....... If you are a Jew working at the BBC or a Jewish person in the UK, when you see those scenes from Gaza—the dreadful, horrific things that Hamas did, and I have no problems calling that a terrorist attack—I can understand why a Jewish person will see those things in a very different way. Someone who doesn't have the lived experience or the family intergenerational experience of what it's like to be targeted for something you have no control over."Please financially support the podcast by signing up here: www.patreon/BeebWatch @BeebRoger@RogerBolton@mastodonapp.ukemail: roger@rogerboltonsbeebwatch.com Get bonus content on Patreon Hosted on Acast.

Today's Investor Focus guest is Adrian Bunter. Adrian started life at PwC as an accountant and got exposure to the private client sector in the mid 90's which meant he had a front row seat to the dot.com rise and then subsequent crash. This gave him the opportunity to see the future of the internet. An early member of Sydney Angels, Adrian loved working with high growth companies doing clever things to change the world - the David versus Goliath battles as he puts it. Adrian has been on the board of Employment Hero for over 10 years. This company recently raised $263million to fund growth. The episode talks about how Adrian works to support founders as an investor in their growth phase, gut feel in investing, resilience in founders, analysing investment opportunities, managing angle syndicates, portfolio approach to early stage investing and much more. I've had the pleasure of serving on an early-stage board with Adrian, and his ability to provide an analytical view alongside an entrepreneurial gut feel provides significant value to the entrepreneurs he invests in and works with. hello@tribeglobal.vc

Plus, as well as the amazing guests, you will also learn that there is a lot more to Gary Goldsmith than what the headlines might have had you believe! Far from just being a loveable rogue and famous royal Uncle, there are insights and wisdom shared that reveal why Gary has been integral to hundreds of millions of pounds of business growth over the years. So, join us for some real, raw and interesting chats down at the pub - yes, this show is really shot on location at an actual, working West End boozer!
