Most workplace friction isn’t really about performance, it’s about misunderstanding.

The way we communicate, give feedback, focus, and think about work can vary hugely from person to person.

But in many teams, those differences go unspoken, which can lead to confusion, frustration, and missed potential.

Our free work style manual template is designed to change that.

It gives people a simple, structured way to share how they work best - from communication preferences and feedback styles to working patterns and the conditions that help them focus.

Instead of leaving these things open to interpretation, it makes them clear, visible, and easy to act on.

And importantly, it’s for everyone. Not just those who feel they need to ask for support.

When teams have a better understanding of each other’s working styles, everything starts to click into place.

Conversations become clearer, collaboration feels easier, and managers are better equipped to support their people consistently and fairly 🤝

Most people think great entrepreneurs start with brilliant ideas.
Sahar Hashemi says that’s a myth.

In this episode of all about business, James sits down with Sahar - Entrepreneur, Author, and Founder of Buy Women Built - to unpack what actually drives success.

From building Coffee Republic to 110 stores, to the risks of handing control to “the professionals,” Sahar shares hard-earned lessons on staying close to your customers, avoiding bureaucracy, and why businesses fail when they lose sight of who they serve.

Her biggest takeaway?
Something done badly is better than if it’s not done at all, and the best thing any aspiring entrepreneur can do is start somewhere, however small.

65% of employers think they have adequate resources to support neurodivergent employees…

But 64% of neurodivergent employees have considered leaving because they don’t feel supported.

That gap is where change needs to happen.

Our eBook, ‘Work that works for everyone: your guide to building a neuroinclusive workplace’, explores what it really takes to create environments where different ways of thinking can thrive. Not through awareness alone, but by rethinking how work is designed, managed and experienced.

📘 Inside, you’ll learn:
· What neuroinclusion looks like in practice
· How to remove common workplace barriers
· Ways to create more flexible, psychologically safe environments
· The role of managers in supporting progression
· Practical tools and actions you can start using now

Backed by research with 500 UK employers and 1,000 neurodivergent employees, plus leading experts in the field, this guide is designed to help you turn good intentions into real impact.

Because when work works for different ways of thinking, it works better for everyone.

In this week’s episode of all about business, James speaks with Timo Boldt, Founder & CEO of Gousto, about building one of the UK’s most ambitious food businesses - and why, even after 14 years and 80 million meals, he’s only just getting started.

Timo shares:
•Why he walked away from investment banking to start from scratch
•What it really takes to raise funding with no network or customers
•How to grow a business by staying obsessively close to your users
•And why solving the right problem matters more than anything

They also dig into how Gousto has used AI properly from day one - not as a replacement for people, but as a way to make the entire operation smarter. From cutting food waste and optimising logistics, to creating fully personalised menus that 80% of customers now rely on.

If you’re interested in the future of food, startups, or building something meaningful - this is one to listen to.

This Pride month, we celebrate the strength, diversity and talent of the LGBTQ+ community. 🌈

This month is a celebration of identity, community and progress, but also a reminder of the importance of continuing to build workplaces where everyone feels they belong.

At Reed, our theme for Pride this year is unity. Throughout the month, to bring this theme to life, we’re hosting a Pride-themed day where co-members are encouraged to dress bright and bold.

Offices will also take part in creating a ‘wall of unity’, where colleagues can share what unity means to them, recognise and thank others for their support, and express what it truly means to be themselves at work.

We’re proud to support an environment where individuality is valued and everyone has the confidence to show up as their true selves - this month and every month.

How is your organisation celebrating Pride this year?

As mental health awareness month draws to a close, we ask the question: are mental health days the next step in employee wellbeing? 🧠

With more organisations embracing flexible working, wellbeing allowances, and people-first benefits, it’s clear the workplace is evolving. However, when it comes to mental health days, are we going far enough?

In the UK, mental ill-health has already led to millions of lost working days this year, and while adoption of mental health days is rising, they’re still far from standard practice.

In this article, we explore what mental health days are, the benefits they offer, and how organisations can introduce them as part of a proactive wellbeing strategy.

How do you build a global luxury brand and keep it thriving for 30 years without ever taking outside investment?

🎙️ In this episode of all about business, James Reed sits down with Tom Faulkner, award-winning British furniture designer and founder of Tom Faulkner Limited.

From redundancy at a record label to buying a Swindon workshop for just £5,000, Tom shares the unconventional journey behind one of the UK’s most distinctive handcrafted furniture brands.

They explore what it really means to build (and protect) a premium brand - from the power of word-of-mouth growth and enduring client relationships, to navigating US tariffs, maintaining British craftsmanship as a selling point, and resisting the pressure to scale for scale’s sake.

👉 If you're interested in entrepreneurship, craftsmanship, or building a brand with longevity and purpose, this is a must-listen.
