The Dior Common Thread podcast series represents a fascinating new avenue for exploring the collaborations initiated by Kim Jones since his arrival at Dior. Each episode will present a compelling encounter with one of the inspiring figures who have participated in his endlessly original reinventions. In conversation with Ed Tang, each recounts their unique experience and shares their singular vision, providing an immersive new window into the world of Dior Men. Creative daring drives the House's momentum today more than ever, and the Dior Common Thread podcast series explores the collaborations initiated by Kim Jones. For this episode, Ed Tang speaks with Sammy Jay, the rare book specialist who, over the past two years, has been seeking out treasures for the Artistic Director's astonishing personal library, which includes a significant number of volumes corresponding to his passions - Virginia Woolf and the Bloomsbury Group, as well as the Beat Generation. Sammy Jay hails from Oxford, and studied English literature at Christ Church, one of the prestigious colleges that compose the city's centuries-old university. He has described literature as an early and enduring obsession. After his degree, and while contemplating his career options, he was perusing the shelves in his late grandfather's house one day when he came across a first edition of Mary Shelley's Frankenstein, dedicated by the author to Lord Byron. A great fan of the Romantics, like his grandfather, for him was an exceptional find, and the first step in his journey to becoming a book dealer. Jay is a specialist and buyer at Peter Harrington, one of the United Kingdom's preeminent references in first editions and rarities. Kim Jones first came to him in search of additions to his extensive array of Bloomsbury Group authors, and their relationship took off from there. His library has also melded into his work for Dior, and his literary interests have shaped the subject matter for his menswear collections for the House. The Fall 2022 collection was inspired by Jack Kerouac and the Beat Generation, and in conjunction with the show held in London, Jay was invited to curate a special on-site exhibition of books and manuscripts titled ‘Nowhere to go but everywhere', most belonging to Kim Jones himself. As Ed Tang notes, books are magical and they play a unique role in our lives, a source of private passion and aesthetic objects in their own right. As Jay says, they inspire a ‘gentle madness' in collectors and have a vast range, from the heights of glamour and intellectual enquiry to the grittiest subject matter. Sammy Jay and Kim Jones have such a fruitful relationship precisely because, even though each has his own areas of interest within the world of books, each also gets inspiration from the other's tastes.
Start-ups need to be strong-minded. Start-ups need to lead with confidence. Without such strength, how can a business expect to survive especially when times are tough?But strength is also a weakness. Too much strength can blind start-ups and derail thinking. Too much strength can alienate others or turn them into ‘yes' people.In life and business, mistakes are inevitable. And we have all done things that have led to shame. So how do entrepreneurs embrace weaknesses, getting things wrong and feelings of shame? This fascinating episode explores the world of start-up vulnerability and seeks behavioural answers that will help entrepreneurs to connect more deeply with others and lead with greater confidence and ability. Ultimately, by understanding and embracing vulnerability anyone involved with startup will achieve greater results.Learn more about our special guest This episode's special guest is serial entrepreneur Kyle Hegarty. Kyle has many years' experience running and growing start-ups in different parts of the world. His work has taught him much about entrepreneurship emotion, the value of vulnerability and also led Kyle to write the book ‘The Accidental Business Nomad'. This popular text shares honest stories about the personal challenges people face and common mistakes they make when seeking to build a business.

Successful startups create and build long-term relationships. Building long-term relationships requires us to empathise with others.Starting and sustaining any new business is a huge challenge and requires deep reserves of energy. As a result, startup entrepreneurs typically feel compelled to tell other people what they do because no-one will do it for them. But whilst this personal promotion sounds logical, ‘telling' people about our work doesn't help us to understand them – and thus build empathy.In this enthralling episode, communications and language specialist Derek Utley (81), reflects on his life and how and why taking the time to create empathy with others is a fundamental building block in the development of our business and personal lives.Learn more about the special guestA lover of languages and teaching, Derek Utley took up his first post as a teacher of Spanish and French at Charterhouse School in 1963. Nearly twenty years later Derek co-founded York Associates, a highly successful language training and intercultural communications company used by many multi-national organisations. Now retired, Derek is a keen community volunteer leading weekly walks and helping people in the north-east plant trees.Subscribe to the podcastIf you enjoy the Startup Survival Podcast and want to receive news and notifications of upcoming episodes, subscribe here.A bit of podcast author background...UK-based Peter Harrington set up his first business following graduation in York in 1989.

Duncan kindly lent the 'Keep Your Distance' music to the podcast and he even sings the final voiceover on each episode. Listen out for his 'Better Further'.Read the BBC Bournemouth Beach Report
