Do you mind? How agency heads hope to support employee mental health through the pandemic As the coronavirus pandemic continues its grip on the world, the ‘second pandemic’ of resulting ill mental health pervades. With no definite end to lockdown restrictions in sight and virtual working the new norm – how is the advertising industry supporting its workers for the foreseeable future?
The advertising industry has long been infamous for its stressors – with long hours, tight deadlines, high client expectations, and stiff competition among the identifiable marks of the trade – it is “notorious for employee burnout,” says Ewen MacPherson, group chief people officer at Havas UK.
After a phenomenal year in the sale rings, Archie MacGregor takes the focus of our attention this week as he shared his reasons for being hooked into the pedigree world. Born and bred at Allanfauld, that’s where it all began for him as it was home to a Blackface flock along with cross-bred suckler cows. In 1970, Allanfauld changed from using Aberdeen-Angus and Hereford bulls on the suckler herd to being some of the first Charolais breeders in the area and then using the bulls on the herd. “Charolais, in my opinion, is the best breed for crossing over any type of beef cattle, for quicker finishing, growth, conformation and fleshing,” said Archie, who runs the farm alongside son, John and shepherd, David Kinloch. They farm 2000 acres and now run 1600 Blackface ewes and around 60 breeding cows of the Charolais, Limousin and Luing breeds.
