Business is fundamentally human not flawed

When did you stop being a customer?

When you go to work do you conciously think, ‘right, I’m at work now. I’m a professional. I’m not going to think about that great Paul Smith suit I saw at the weekend; or those amazing black shoes or wonder if there will be any tickets left for the X Factor Live Show Final!’ Of [...]
