This week on Down to Business we’re back in studio and will have had a regular night’s sleep after last week's special on homelessness.
 
Here's what's on the agenda:

  • Kicking things off as usual, we’re reviewing the mornings newspapers with motivational speaker, Paul McNeive
  • Bullying in the Workplace- The National Anti-Bullying Research and Resource Centre (ABC) in DCU has just launched some new research which looks at gender and outcomes of work-related bullying cases in Ireland. Findings show that bullying is the cause of 1 in 10 dismissals in Irish workplaces, yet 53% of companies don't have robust policies in place. James O'Higgins Norman, report author and director of ABC, joins us.
  • Bobby finds his inner Rock God- Bobby popped along to the Sing Factory which is a customised mobile recording studio that allows people to record their favourite song. Watch Bobby’s efforts; caution advised!
  • What have the Rolling Stones, Man United and the Royal Family all got in Common? They all engaged in great PR Campaigns that rejuvenated their brands. We speak to Danny Rogers about his new book ‘Campaigns that Shock the World 
  • ‘Three Lifecoaches walk into a radio studio and......’- This week our industry review looks at the business of being a ‘Lifecoach' and asks what exactly do they do?
  • EY Entrepreneur of the Year Winner - Thursday night saw the winners of this EY Entrepreneur of the Year announced. We were there and we speak to the winners
  • Irish Vodka- A luxury Irish vodka, has been created by new Irish drinks company, Origin Spirits Ireland.  Kalak Vodka is four times pot distilled from Irish malted barley, a process which is more commonly used in the production of Irish whiskey. We speak to the man behind it Patrick Shelley
  • Executive Chair- Bobby sits down with Emmet Savage founder of investing app Rubicoin which is listed in Irish America's Wall Street 50.

All this and more on Down to Business with Bobby Kerr from 10am until midday tomorrow morning on Newstalk 106-108fm, and Newstalk.com.
