The One From The East Coast Of America: Have I Got Social Enterprise News For You

USA flag

Hello from the USA! USA! USA!

How’s it all going that side of the pond? This week’s Have I Got Social Enterprise News For You is a little bit different, as I’m on ‘vacation’ and haven’t been paying attention to much of what’s been going on in the world of social enterprise (shocking, I know).

So, I’m going to nick a format that the tv show Friends used to use once a series and look back at some of the most popular links of the year so far. They tend to be more ‘how to’ style articles than the news which I’ve filtered out as it’s often no longer news.

Have a great weekend and normal service will resume next week – i’m off into Boston now followed by a baseball game tomorrow!

The end of an era? Have I Got Social Enterprise News For You

Danger

This could be the last ever Have I Got Social Enterprise News For You. No, I’ve not been fired (yet) but I am about to go on my first ever holiday with my in-laws and god knows if I’ll make it back from that unscathed. If you don’t hear from me within two weeks then send help, I could well be involved in a major diplomatic incident. Ringing around my head are the words my mum used to shout after me whenever I used to go round to a friend’s house after school: “Just make sure you offer to clear up”.

Enjoy your weekend!

Sitting in the corner quietly: Have I Got Social Enterprise News For You

Hungover!

I’m feeling a little bit fragile this morning. I was out with an old school friend last night celebrating his recent engagement and have today learned that two bottles of wine between two people is far too much on a school night. This week’s Have I Got Social Enterprise For You is therefore a slightly low key edition as I’m doing my best to keep my head down and not get noticed.

Now, if everyone could keep the noise to a whisper it would be greatly appreciated…

Have a great weekend!

Reaching out and touching base…Have I Got Social Enterprise News For You

There seem to have been a lot of meetings at SSE HQ this week. Every time I’ve looked up from my desk, everyone has gone from one meeting into another. I’ve not been invited to any of them, but I’m sure they are all very exciting and important, like meetings always are. Anyway, to make up for the disappointment of me being excluded from the fun I’ve invented my own meeting (including horrendous office speak), to which you’ve been invited.

After this you might as well knock off for the week, enjoy your weekend!
