John introduces the concept behind the DBAD (Don't be a dickhead) movement that analyses our behaviours to try to make the world a better place. This podcast covers mission and purposes along with the risks of associating yourself with a brand that some people cannot relate to all.... and why that is a good thing!

Whilst many communications workers have never been busier, we're in a time when others don't have the resources or have have even been furloughed during the COVID-19. John describes 5 things he feels all communicators can do to create good during this time.
