Business bosses aim to share their experiences online

The people behind some of North Tyneside’s leading businesses are taking part in a new podcast designed to shine a light on the route to success.

Behind the Business aims to bring together business owners and professionals in the borough to talk openly about their experiences, challenges, lessons learned and the realities of running their own companies.

The podcasts – hosted by Jamilah Hassan of JH Property Connect – aim to get beneath the surface and discover the real people behind the organisations, their journeys, the obstacles they have faced and the experiences that have shaped them.

Complementing her on each of the 11-episode podcasts will be a member of the North Tyneside Business Forum’s management team, including Paul Pringle of Solarglide, Terry Christie of Scaretech and menopause coach Cheryl Tanner.

Angela Tuplin, chair of the North Tyneside Business Forum, said: “We have an incredible range of businesses across North Tyneside and every one is a person with a story to tell.

“Running a business is about much more than figures, targets and success.

"It involves challenges, difficult decisions, unexpected opportunities and lessons learned along the way.

"We want these podcasts to give people the chance to talk honestly about those experiences and let others get to know the person behind the business.”

The podcasts will be released weekly on the Forum’s website and YouTube channel, with the first release on Wednesday October 21.

The Business Forum is free to join and is for any business with a trading address in North Tyneside.
