25.01.2022 JobKeeper keeps on iteratively morphing and reshaping as we roll through this pandemic of ours. Its not exactly easy, even for the keen observer, to keep track of exactly what the deal is at any particular moment. Lets comb through the most recent JobKeeper announcements and determine what it was, and where it currently stands.



25.01.2022 #Jobkeeper and #Jobmaker have presented some solutions for the #workforce impacted by #COVID19, but what about the #business community? The Government has recently updated measures to help #businesses that have a #commericallease. This includes temporary holds on evictions and a mandatory #CodeOfConduct for commercial tenancies to support #SMEs affected. The code and its principles will be implemented and regulated by your relevant state or territory, you can check them here:

24.01.2022 In these tough economic times, small businesses will live and die by their ability to adapt to new conditions. So what lessons can we learn from the sectors that are continuing to sell?

24.01.2022 In a #postcovid economy everyone is understandably anxious about their #spending habits and it's no different for #smallbusiness owners. Understanding your #cashflow, and defining what is truly important for your business, is key to getting through this difficult time.



23.01.2022 "Busy, so busy! Its the default response for many of us when asked how were doing. But more often than not, come the end of the day, we have little to show for all of that busy-ness.

Here are ten high-quality decisions you could be making to not only get from time poor to time rich, but get more meaningful work done.

23.01.2022 Hustle culture demands businesses to always be operating at full throttle, and the business owners almost never get a chance to take a step back and rethink the strategies by which their organisations are driven. But COVID-19 has given many Australian and New Zealand-based small businesses no choice but to reflect on the fundamental elements of their offerings and take their existing strategies back to the drawing board to come up with ways to improve.

23.01.2022 What if you could re-think your offering under current constraints, to remain competitive? What if you could create better experiences and new products for your customers?

23.01.2022 Crises, whether financial, ecological or epidemic, are a recurring fixture in our lives, but living and working in such an environment can feel like drifting at sea. But management experts suggest such powerlessness is just an illusion. While we cannot control the macroeconomic tides the stimulus bills, economic policy decisions, and trade negotiations we do have the power to affect change within our organizations. For the 90% of small businesses reporting a negative downturn due to the COVID-19 pandemic, now is not the time to sit back and drift. Instead, you must take control of what you can and guide your course as you are best able. Because even simple actions can have outsized effects, building resilience, adaptability, and performance.

23.01.2022 A new report by Deloitte, The Ethical Advantage, shows that when a #business makes great ethical choices, it boosts a return on assets by 7%.
