Marks Morning Business Show March 12th 2026

In today’s episode, I talk about one of the biggest challenges business owners face — finding the right people for a management team.Building a strong management team is critical to the success of any business, but the reality is that many of the best people are not found through CVs or traditional recruitment processes.In my experience, most senior hires come through:Personal recommendationsNetworking eventsIndustry reputationPeople you have worked with beforeTrust and reputation often matter far more than what appears on a CV.Today, however, AI is increasingly controlling what CVs are seen and which candidates make it through the first stage of recruitment. While technology can help filter applications, it cannot replace the value of knowing someone, understanding their reputation, or receiving a trusted referral.In this episode, I explore why relationships and reputation still play a huge role in building strong management teams, and why business owners should never rely entirely on automated systems when making important hiring decisions.Mark Beggs is a dyslexic entrepreneur, author, and business mentor with over 30 years of experience in business.
