1) I met Lord Digby Jones (The New Troubleshooter) at Elite Business Conference and Exhibition in April this year. Lord Digby is a strong supporter of SMEs and the important role they play in achieving a strong economy. In addition to this what makes The New Troubleshooter even more interesting is the fact that he used to be…..
