The old guard of activism is changing

Apologies. The Corporate Affairs Unpacked newsletter has been a bit erratic over August for myriad reasons that are too boring to explain... but from September, it will be a firm fixture in the weekly calendar, hopefully with a soon-to-be-revealed sponsor on board, with a regular profile interview, case study and long-form content on the issues that concern you.In the meantime, I'd like to thank you all for the support and enthusiasm with which you have greeted my new initiative. Let me know the topics you want explored; this only works as a partnership.
