Welcome to 42 degrees

issue 12

in this issue:

42 degrees is the business e-zine from Bank of Scotland Corporate that looks at business from a different angle.

In this issue we talk to eccentric entrepreneur and one time muso Tim Smit, who turned a scrap of worthless waste land into the Eden Project, the UK's fourth most popular tourist attraction. We also look at bullying in the workplace, how to get an airline upgrade and talk to Jamie Murray Wells who is taking on the high street optical giants.

But we don't want it to be all one-way traffic. We'd like to hear about your insights and experiences in our new 'Your opinions' section.
