Finland has a 1300 km long land border with Russia, fought two wars in the 1940s to defend then reclaim territory, and is now applying to join NATO. There, most knowledge of the country ends.Which is a shame.Because a staple of Finnish life could offer a permanent solution to supply crises in Britain – using cooperatives not corporations to deliver. During a cycle on the Finnish-owned Aland Islands Lesley used cooperatively-owned ferries. This year, during a summer trip to the Sibelius Festival in the Finnish city of Lahti,  she visited the cooperatively run Housing Fair, the Metsalitto Forest cooperative (which has 100 thousand members), stayed at the cooperatively owned Solo Sokos Hotel in Lahti - part of the huge S-Group cooperative with more than 3 million members and passed cooperatively owned shops, businesses and banks at every stage of her journey.How does it all work?Lesley Riddoch went to Finland's seventh largest city to find out. With thanks to Risto Turanen, Kari Huhtala, VisitFinland, Finnair and Sokos Hotels.    ★ Support this podcast ★

In this episode of Forever a Golden Bear (co-hosted by Cal backstroker and Olympian Ryan Murphy) we follow the remarkable journey of Bengt Baron, who won his first Olympic gold medal (in the backstroke) at age 18.  We track the importance Bengt placed on attending UC Berkeley; to his formative development as management consultant with McKinsey & Co., to exploring the wisdoms Bengt gleaned from holding senior management roles for multinational firms over more than two decades, beginning in his early thirties.  Those roles included President of Kodak and Coca Cola Sweden; CEO of V&S Group and its former brand Absolut Vodka (which Bengt founded, and later sold); and CEO of the global confectionery company Cloetta.  In this masterclass on general management, Bengt advocates broadening one's skills early; how curiosity drives performance in both sports and in business; and how a posture of patience, horizontal functional know-how, and empathic human interest, is critical to effective leadership of high-performing teams.

This week on BEHIND THE LENS we go back to The Hundred Acre Woods with some prerecorded exclusive interviews with JIM CUMMINGS, writer ALLISON SCHROEDER and costume designer JENNY BEAVAN. Not only is it Awards Season, but CHRISTOPHER ROBIN is available November 6, 2018, on Digital and Blu-ray. And we catch up with writer/director/actor JOSEPH CULP talking about his new film (and feature directorial debut) WELCOME TO THE MEN'S GROUP. Every film starts with a story and we start off the show with CHRISTOPHER ROBIN screenwriter ALLISON SCHROEDER. Listen as she talks about creating the story and balancing screen time among Winnie the Pooh, Tigger, Eeyore and the gang, as well as the dynamic between Christopher Robin and Pooh. Of course, once you have the words on the page, it's time to flesh out your characters through performance and there's no better man for that job than master voice actor JIM CUMMINGS who talks about voicing Pooh and Tigger and how these performances of the dynamic duo differ from those of the past 30 years. But then, you need a look. Luckily for Christopher Robin and Pooh that Academy Award-winning costume designer JENNY BEAVAN was on hand to develop period perfect looks for not only our furry friends but the humans milling about the film as well. Listen as she talks about director Marc Forster's vision in terms of the look of the film and how costume played into that, and how she works with costume houses to find just the right looks for characters, not to mention hand-knitting Pooh's signature red sweater. Then, take a listen to my conversation with JOSEPH CULP (son of acclaimed actor Robert Culp) as he talks about his feature directorial debut with WELCOME TO THE MEN'S GROUP. Writer/director/producer and one of the film's stars in an impeccable ensemble cast, Joseph goes in-depth about story development, casting, and the importance of this film in today's world. http://behindthelensonline.net http://eliasentertainmentnetwork.com

After years of inactivity in the private label market, two of Finland’s largest grocery retailers are launching private label lines. S Group is launching Kotimaista, which will consist of four hundred products and Kesko is releasing a private label series called K-Menu. Private label shares are on a constant increase in Finland and these products are not seen as an economy alternative, therefore these launches are forecasted to be successes.
