Harassment whether by men on women, men on men, women on men or women on women is in the news every day. Whether you a potential US Supreme court judge, a film producer or just a manager in an organisation harassment is unacceptable. Legally it is defined as ‘unwanted conduct related to a relevant protected
I know that it’s a bit flippant to be making jokes about death, because this is a serious subject, but it’s still an accurate comment. When you die, the probability is that your family will be wanting to know what, if anything, they’ll be getting. You may think that this is going to lead into me
I often tell people how busy I am but that I love it because I don’t know what else I’d do. I don’t really have any hobbies. I enjoy watching football and I’m happy to have a good meal and a nice glass of wine, but I can’t really describe them as hobbies. Hobbies are things I

I don’t mean romantic dates – although I’ve definitely had a few bad ones of those. The guy who only asked me out at the request of his friend (who had taken me out the week before) to see what I’d do was probably top of my list of bad dates. Closely followed by the guy who
At Alexander Business & Law Solutions I find that nearly everyone I speak to wants to know about GDPR (General Data Protection Regulations). And rightly so it will affect pretty much all of us. Here are some basic points, regarding a complex area, which should offer some clarity. The important point to stress is to
