Faith in Business Monthly

Faith in Business Monthly (FiBM) is a mixture of talks and interviews with Christian business leaders, expert coaches and practical theologians. It equips business people to navigate small, medium and large enterprises through an uncertain business environment from a uniquely Christian perspective. 

FiBM takes place on the first Thursday of every month at 12.30 pm. Participants join a live Zoom meeting, and after listening to a talk or interview, they have the opportunity to ask questions verbally or through a chat channel, followed by breakout rooms where they discuss the meeting's topic with fellow participants. Each set of talks and interviews is moderated by our Director, Peter Heslam, or one of the Faith in Business team.

The Power of Purpose
Meaning and purpose can protect people from burnout. But they can also cause it – because they can induce a ‘hero’ complex (trying to rescue situations). This can harm their own wellbeing and that of those around them. Dr Rachel Morris provides insight from medicine, leadership and wisdom in the bible – a book that offers rich insight on meaning and purpose.
No sentiment in Business?
To call a novel, or a film, or a person 'sentimental' is generally meant as a criticism. But is there a positive role for sentiment to play, even in a performance-driven business environment? At our first Faith in Business Monthly (FiBM) of 2021, Jeanette Walker grappled with this question.

Books on world history will rank 2020 as an extraordinary year. It has been a time of struggle, pain, endurance and loss. But it has also been marked by kindness, service, community and growth. In our last Faith in Business Monthly (FiBM) of 2020, we invited five inspiring business people to share some of their experiences, and their hopes and expectations for 2021.

Whenever there’s so much out of our control, there’s still so much we can control. And if we focus our energies on the right things, this’ll help us f

He particularly explores these questions: How do we lead with compassion as we build a profitable business? How can we be more vulnerable as we lead our teams?
