The truth is many people think celebrities are generally overrated. They may get sucked into the content on their social feeds, enjoy seeing Tom Cruise fly a jet, and likely even indulge in a tequila shot or two from ER’s oldest heartthrob. But when it comes down to actual business acumen, most people wouldn’t trust them as far as they can throw them.

Owing to The Great Resignation, businesses and how they run have changed drastically. We no longer need physical offices for all businesses to function, a designated desk and chair and several cables cluttered around the office. In 2022, we have finally acknowledged the importance of having flexibility in our work lives and this begins and ends with a company’s communication tools.

Although it seems ESG’s rise to the top of the news agenda was swift, focus on its fundamental elements – Environment, Social, and Corporate Governance – are nothing new. Previously understood through the term ‘CSR’ or corporate social responsibility, many agree that ESG is merely the newest edition in a constant rebrand of the same principles. And in extreme cases, it’s considered a deceptive way of boosting corporate reputation: a guise distracting the industry from a lack of action being taken.

What constitutes commerce success in 2022? It’s a seriously tough climate out there. In B2B and B2C, it's harder than ever to win and retain customers. There’s so much choice, and it's easy to switch suppliers, which means that customer experience has become the primary way of differentiation.
