Breakfast BEE sessions, a sort of report back even though they aren’t finished yet

Five out of the seven planned sessions are over. They are small and focussed. David Kalmin knows his clients and I know mine. The initial purpose of these sessions was to let our respective clients know that we are on top of what's coming. I think the difference between our sessions and most other commercial […]

New BEE codes breakfast sessions for 5-8 September booked up. A few places left for the 13th to the 15th

The response has been incredible.  If you're interested please book soon. —————————————————–   No one knows where these codes are going.

Policy certainty, the DTI and communist sludge

Heaven forbid that Bolshie Bob's department provide us with information that is clearly thought out, properly researched and executed according to the constitution. I doubt whether our justifiably lambasted commie believes in heaven, that's where he and I concur, otherwise I think he's useless. Where was I? There is a big brother watching us from
