It’s #FreeFormFriday! I toured a local manufacturing company on Tuesday. The tour was fantastic- the facility was in good order and very clean. I have toured hundreds of facilities in my career, so a clean facility doesn’t really impress me….but this was different. The positive culture was evident throughout the facility. I am not talking about posters and lunchroom upgrades. I am talking about passion and ownership with the hourly folks who were giving the tours. The bias towards action, teamwork, and continual improvement was very evident. And the best was when the person at the welding station described his job in a big picture context (delighting the customer when their output is integrated into the final product) vs. having a very narrow perspective of welding. Institutionalizing a culture like this isn’t easy. It is hard work, but so worth it! #supplychain #logistics #buffalo

We spearheaded an ambitious campaign to save Marston's Brewery £400,000 annually. Recognizing the need for relatable messaging, we crafted creative content that resonated with staff on the shop floor. The core idea was simple: everyone at the brewery already had the necessary tools—just their hands. No special equipment was required to implement the changes. The "You're the Right Tool for the Job" campaign was launched to encourage staff to adopt energy-saving habits, such as turning off lights. The campaign was enthusiastically received within the brewery. One team member remarked, “You’ve spiced it up and brought it to our level with stats we can understand – it’s not too technical because it pulls out things everyone relates to.” In the first two months, the brewery saw a significant reduction in wasted energy, with an average daily decrease of 1,016.66 kWh in electricity consumption. They also achieved a substantial reduction in water usage, saving 9.08 m³ per day (approximately 9,000 litres). To put that into perspective, a single day's reduction is enough to fill almost 16,000 pint glasses! This was a fantastic start and a major step forward. The campaign was nominated for an Institute of Internal Communication Award for Best Change/Transformation Communication—and it won. More importantly, staff engagement with the project was significant, kickstarting meaningful change within the business. #Change #motivation #Behaviouralchange #Staffchange #InternalCommunication #comms #inthemiddle #branding

𝐏𝐚𝐮𝐥𝐚 𝐓𝐮𝐫𝐤 𝐟𝐨𝐥𝐥𝐨𝐰𝐬 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐛𝐞𝐚𝐫 Walking back from an appointment in Canary Wharf yesterday, I came across this great advert that brought back childhood memories. Good old Hofmeister - and while I was way too young to drink it, I did love the adverts in the early 1980s. Not sure it is going to take me away from Prosecco, G&T and Neck Oil / Punk IPAs - it did take me down memory lane... I think the current German side are the team to beat in the Euros - and making full use of home advantage. Qu - Do you hanker back to different times? Or just live purely in 'The Now'?

STOP & REFLECT! Sometimes it's all to easy to get wrapped up in everything going on and focus on hardships and obstacles, how to improve, and forget how far you've come and celebrate your day to day achievements. So this is me reflecting... Been a busy few weeks at the distillery, with multiple new products launching, re-runs of established product, preparing for relaunch of our Pin Gin brand, agreeing new contracts with some incredible brands both young and old and upgrading our offering. Some highlights: Ran our first reserve label for a great team of people who I love to work with. You know who you are! Can't wait for them to start shouting about this product. It's immense! Finished a 6 month long distillation project transforming over harvest into Eaux de Vie. We have extended our Bonded warehouse space into an additional Annex site. Upgraded the line with an additional automation. Produced and Exported our first product for US consumption. Danced around the office making TikToks for a relaunch! Hired additional staff due to increased work demand and customer engagement. Created 27 pallets spaces from nowhere to facilitate further operations. and last but by no means least had a cup of tea made to the perfect colour (you have no idea the colour range within the office!). 😊 What have been your recent wins???

Offsite retreats/brainstorming sessions were always deadly to me. Hours sitting in an uncomfortable chair, with few bathroom breaks and someone talking at me. Oh and of course, the media calling me in the middle of everything. I wish we had gone on an after-hours food tour like the one I created for companies! #corporateevents #teambuilding
