elbourne’s a city that knows how to live. Choose from fine cuisine, indie rock gigs, plays, festivals and blockbuster sporting events, all across a city that’s packed full of parks, gardens and historic architecture. Explore historic arcades and laneways lined with fine dining restaurants, chic cafes, hidden bars and boutiques, or head to one of the many lush gardens throughout the city….is there really any surprise that we are the most liveable city? Once again for the fifth consecutive time Melbourne has been voted the world’s most liveable city, achieving a near perfect score on the Economist Intelligence Unit’s (EIU) liveability survery of 140 cities .The survey rated cities out of 100 in the areas of health care, education, stability, culture and environment and infrastructure. Melbourne again achieved a score of 97.5, just two-and-a-half points shy of perfection. While celebrating the ranking, the Victorian Government said it would “never be complacent”, investing $20 billion in transport infrastructure and $5.4 billion in health and education to create a stronger economy. “Melbourne has the best of everything and this title proves it,” Victorian Premier Daniel Andrews said. “Perfect scores in health care, education and infrastructure, culture, environment and sport are all proof there’s no place like Victoria.” Melbourne Mayor Robert Doyle said he was “very proud” that seven of the top 10 scoring cities were in Australia and Canada.The report said civil unrest and acts of terror had triggered stability declines around the world including in France and Tunisia. The “ongoing actions” of Islamic State had created a further heightened threat of terrorism in many countries. The Syrian capital Damascus saw the biggest fall in liveability scores over a five-year period. Zimbabwe’s capital Harare was the most improved city in the EIU report.

Women taking over small business sector.

A
ustralian women are starting small businesses at twice the rate of men. Research by BankWest using Bureau of Statistics data revealed strong growth in the rate of women starting up businesses over the past five years (7 per cent) compared with men (1.9 per cent). One of the real trends that came out of the report was stronger growth in the number of women running their own business compared to men, particularly the growth in women running a small business by themselves, often part-time at first while raising children,’’ said the report’s author, Tim Crawford, a senior analyst at BankWest. In NSW, women make up about one-third of the state’s 650,000 small businesses, according to the NSW Department of Trade and Investment. Jacqueline Arias, who launched fair trade coffee company Republica Coffee in 2006, says she did so to follow her passion and stay true to her ethics. The Colombian-born Ms Arias now has five employees and her business made last year’s BRW Fast 100 ranking of the fastest-growing companies. She won a City of Sydney small business award in 2009. Her coffee - organic and ethically sourced from Third World countries - is for sale in supermarkets and served on Jetstar flights. Ms Arias, who had her daughter, Nicola, just before starting out, believes that entrepreneurial women still lag behind men because it is impossible to do it all - particularly without a supportive partner.The truth is that we can’t do it all. You can work bloody hard but then you’re not doing a great job at home. Or if you’re doing a great job at home you can’t do a great job at work, and that’s just a fact of life … I do have a great partner who has given me the opportunity to focus on the business.

93.3 PERCENT OF AUSTRALIAN WOMEN BUSINESS OPERATORS ARE WORKING IN SMALL BUSINESS
93.3 percent of Australian women business operators are working in small business and current data suggests the number of women business owners is increasing across our nation. Labour force data shows women account for around a third of our nation’s business operators. This data from January this year shows there were 406,400 women running a business. It is important to remember that women participate across the entire spectrum of our work force – from the highest echelons of the private sector to showing great spirit by starting up home based businesses. Walt Disney told his crew to ‘build the castle first’ when constructing Disney World, knowing that vision would continue to serve as motivation throughout the project. Oftentimes when people fail to achieve what they want in life, it’s because their vision isn’t strong enough.

Impact of Terrorism on the economy and business. “Terrorism is designed to create power where there is none or to consolidate power where there is little. Through the publicity generated by their violence, terrorists seek to obtain the leverage, influence and power they otherwise lack to effect political change on either local or international scale.” ~Professor Bruce Hoffman

threat is unpredictable and indiscriminate. In addition, attacks
on an international business may be based on what the organization symbolizes in the minds of the attackers rather than the actual nature of the business. International terrorism attacks against business targets account for 18.28% of all attacks; Direct attacks on business infrastructure targets account for less than 10% of all international terrorism targets, suggesting that attacks on infrastructure are less likely to occur as an indirect attack on business targets. The most widely used tactic in international terrorism against business targets is bombing, currently averaging approximately 39 incidents per year globally. All other forms of attack average less than five incidents a year each. However, the use of bombing is declining in favor of other tactics, particularly armed attack…In late November of 2015 follow-

Economists in the United States, with the assistance of the Centre for Policy Studies (CoPS) at Monash University, have investigated the impact of a terrorist attack on a region’s economy.
The United States has spent more than $1 trillion on the “war on terror” since 9/11, and a recently released Congressional report says: “Adjusting for inflation, the outlays for conflicts in Afghanistan, Iraq and elsewhere around the world make the “war on terrorism” second only to World War II. World War II cost $4.1 trillion when converted to current dollars, although the tab in the 1940s was $296 billion. World War II consumed a massive 36 percent of America’s gross domestic product — a broad measurement of the country’s economic output. The post-9/11 cost of the conflicts is about 1 percent of GDP…”In addition, there are billions of dollars spent by global businesses for both the threat of, and damage from terrorism: Productivity and growth decline in areas where the threat of terrorism escalates, heightened threat of terrorism creates uncertainty and increases costs of doing business and slows down growth. With the threat of terrorism, normal businesses require more time and extra security for their business dealings, and there is a general slowdown in economic activity. The true cost of terrorism or the threat of terrorism is enormous.

Best Attendance and Time Employee Systems for 2016 Track time from any location, using any device, in real time.
W
e know that different businesses have different time-and-attendance system needs. We researched and reviewed dozens of time and attendance systems and came up with a couple we think is great for a variety of business types.
B
est Time and Attendance System for Small Businesses: stratustime. Stratustime offers everything small businesses need in a time and attendance system. The cloud-based solution has a comprehensive assortment of time-tracking options, with employees able to clock in and out via traditional time clocks, Internet-connected computers, mobile devices and telephones. The system also manages paid time off, generates employee schedules, monitors overtime hours, integrates with a wide range of payroll services and features a variety of mobile services. We were highly impressed with the system’s easy-to-use online portal, the company’s customer service and the system’s affordable monthly cost
Keeping Managers in the Know and Employees on the Go Best Time and Attendance System for Very Small Businesses: uAttend The uAttend time and attendance system is a perfect fit for very small businesses because it is cloud-based and requires no special software to install. The system is very flexible, letting employees clock in and out with time clocks, Web browsers, mobile devices and telephones. uAttend’s time clocks are plug-and-play ready, send data in real time to the system, include lifetime guarantees and are among the cheapest we found. Besides being able to record when employees come and go, the system also manages paid time off, tracks how long employees work on specific projects and creates office-wide schedules. Best Time and Attendance System for Businesses with a Mobile Workforce: TSheets. TSheets provides just what businesses with a mobile workforce need from a time and attendance system. This service allows employees to clock in and out with laptop computers, smartphones, telephones, text messages and Twitter. Additionally, the system records not only exactly where workers start and end their shifts, but also their locations throughout the day. The pricing is extremely affordable, and the customer service is among the best we encountered.

Latest Summer Craze- Food Truck Food Truck Sensation
P
OP up food vans are offering Australians the chance to sample delicious food. Food trucks are a street-food sensation in other global cities like Los Angeles and New York- the idea is gourmet-quality, affordable food in places where options have previously been limited, especially late at night. Mel-
bourne remains the birthplace of the Australian food truck movement with custom-fitted vans serving up mouth-watering creations to patrons across the city and suburbs. Mumbai style curries, steamed buns, tacos, burgers you actually want to eat, Cajun flavours and southern gumbos are just some of the offerings available. For those with a sweet tooth the frozen yoghurt on wheels concept – Yogurddiction is sure to please. Social media and tracking websites like Wherethetruck.at are helping Australian’s locate their nearest food truck. With the late days of Summer here- Melbournians are enjoying the balmy nights under the lanterns of a food truck stop more then ever! Here are our top 5 picks of the best trucks to look out for from the urbanlist.com - Massive Wieners: The lads at Massive Wieners pride themselves on having the biggest… everything, and the same goes for their hot dog food truck, or should we say food bus. You can eat in it or on it. Pappa Pita: Greek treats both sweet and savoury are on the agenda here, and we’re never one to turn down a feast. Start with a skewer full of roast meat, end with a tub of loukoumades (Greek donuts). The Brûlée Cart: I mean really, what more do we need to say? Just the thought of a truckful of crème brulee would have any sane human being drooling at the drop of a hat. Lavender and honey has us hooked, but the salted caramel is also certainly worth pursuing. Trailer Made: If you want restaurant-quality food made from seasonal produce, this is the food truck for you. Inspired by trekking around Europe and the Middle East, the fare here is vegan, vego, coeliac and carnivore-friendly. Dude Food Man: Dude food was made to solve the modern man (and woman’s) hangovers, and this Melbourne food truck does just that. Think double cheese and bacon burgers, pork sliders, fat hand cut chips and garlic aoili. Bliss.

7 ways exercising can imp We all know fitness is important to our health, but did you know it can also be good for your business? Elizabeth Robinson, a Philadelphia-based personal trainer and creator of VitFit mobile app notes 7 key points to keep in mind next time you cant be bothered to get moving
Everything changes with exercise 1.
Build your network. Whether working out at the gym or participating in a team sport, fitness can help you network with prospective clients or strengthen existing business relationships. Robinson met several of her business investors and clients through fitness activities. “A lot of barriers break down when you’re working out with somebody,” says Robinson. Fitness challenges open a window into individuals’ personalities and allow you to communicate with others in a very different way and consequently learn more about each other than would normally be possible over a cup of coffee.

3. 2.
Get your creative juices flowing. Exercise not only tones muscles, but improves brain power. A 2012 study by the Montreal Heart Institute showed aerobic exercise increased cognitive function. This is because exercise increases blood flow to your brain, meaning a jog might be just what you need before a brainstorming session.
Reduce stress. Physical activity reduces stress hormones and increases the production of endorphins that give you a natural high. Getting in a workout, whether before work or during the workday can allow you to approach your work with a calmer mindset. “The more stressed you are, the more unable you are to make really good, rational business decisions,” says Schembri.
4.
Boost your confidence. Whether building a business or going through a rough patch, even the smallest fitness win can help you gain the confidence you need to achieve larger goals in your business life. “Having a great workout translates into every area of your life, making you feel more accomplished at the end of the day about everything that you do,” says Robinson.

Everything changes with exercise 5.
Overcome business challenges. Training for a fitness challenge such as a marathon can help entrepreneurs re-learn the importance of goal-setting and determination. Schembri participated in her first triathlon when she was 58-years-old and says the vigorous training regime she underwent to achieve her fitness goals helped her to be a more tenacious entrepreneur. Removing the word “can’t” from her vocabulary made her view obstacles as simply another challenge to be overcome, she says.
The marathon is a long-distance running event with an official distance of 42.195 kilometres (26.21875 miles, or 26 miles and 385 yards),usually run as a road race. The event was instituted in commemoration of the fabled run of the Greek soldier Pheidippides, a messenger from the Battle of Marathon to Athens. The marathon was one of the original modern Olympic events in 1896, though the distance did not become standardized until 1921. More than 500 marathons are held throughout the world each year, with the vast majority of competitors being recreational athletes as larger marathons can have tens of thousands of participants.

6.
Improve your energy. Ditch your morning cup of coffee and head to the gym instead. A 2008 study published in the Journal Psychotherapy and Psychosomatics concluded that inactive individuals who normally complained of fatigue experienced increases in energy of up to 20 percent and decreased fatigue as much as 65 percent by participating in regular, low-intensity physical activity. “Exercising regularly helps you sleep better, and if you sleep better you’ll have more energy during the day,” says Schembri.
7.
Learn to let go of control. “A lot of business owners think that they have to do it all, [but] there’s a lot of stress that goes along with that level of control, power and decision-making,” says Schembri, who argues power-hungry entrepreneurs can benefit from a personal trainer. “When you hire a trainer you’re acquiescing to someone else, accepting that you’re going to let them direct you,” says Schembri. Participating in team sports can also teach control-freak entrepreneurs about the importance of entrusting others with important tasks, proving they don’t have to do it all on their own to have a successful business.
Physical exercise is any bodily activity that enhances or maintains physical fitness and overall health and wellness. It is performed for various reasons, including strengthening muscles and the cardiovascular system, honing athletic skills, weight loss or maintenance, and merely enjoyment. Frequent and regular physical exercise boosts the immune system and helps prevent the “diseases of affluence” such as heart disease, cardiovascular disease, Type 2 diabetes, and obesity. It may also help prevent depression, help to promote or maintain positive self-esteem, improve mental health generally, and can augment an individual’s sex appeal or body image, which has been found to be linked with higher levels of self-esteem. Childhood obesity is a growing global concern, and physical exercise may help decrease some of the effects of childhood and adult obesity. Health care providers often call exercise the “miracle” or “wonder” drug—alluding to the wide variety of proven benefits that it can provide.

How to bring out the best in your employees? Every boss wants his or her employees to use their talents to the fullest capacity. But realistically, it’s not possible for this to be done 100 percent of the time; everyone has ups and downs in their work output, and any team member is bound to go through a brief dip in productivity from time to time. As an employer or manager, it’s your job to help your team power through those slumps and bring performance and engagement levels back to their peaks. There are a number of ways to express that you want greater results from your staff, but barking orders and demanding that everyone puts in more effort won’t get you very far. An open, honest two‐way conversation will help you get to the root of any performance problem, even if it’s minor or temporary. “Clear communication and consistent feedback are the keys to success,” said Cord Himelstein, vice president of marketing and communications for employee recognition company Michael C. Fina. “People always appreciate straightforwardness and genuine interactions over management gimmicks. Setting a tone of sincerity and giving the employee a judgement-‐free space to articulate their challenges is the best way to elicit an honest dialogue.”

Top Business Ideas For 2016
It is the year of the entrepreneur. Thanks, in part, to social media, crowdfunding and alternative lending options, and the constant evolution of technology, it’s a great time to start a business. And with new trends popping up constantly, there are plenty of ways aspiring entrepreneurs can capitalize on them. Here’s a list of 5 business ideas to inspire your entrepreneurial spirit in 2016
1. Box Subscription Box subscription services are popping up everywhere in the food, beauty and even pet product sectors, ready to deliver goods right to your door each month. One of the perks that keeps customers coming back for more is the idea that these subscription boxes are carefully curated just for them based on their likes and interests, and each month, the boxes’ contents are a surprise. Find a unique product category that’s still untapped by the box subscription industry, or find a way to put a new spin on an existing service, and you could have a lucrative business on your hands.
vnm magazine 022
2. Kids Apps Kids are your future customers, so gaining their loyalty now isn’t a bad idea. JWT Intelligence also cited the connectivity of kids as a big trend for 2015. According to Common Sense Media, three-quarters of kids have access to a mobile device. This spells a big business opportunity for anyone who can create products or design apps just for kids. And, if they also happen to be educational or promote good health, you’ll win their parents over, too. You can start small by designing a few kid-friendly apps and see where your business goes from there.
3. Food Truck A truck is a much less expensive investment than a brick-and-mortar restaurant, and according to Mobi Munch founder Josh Tang, the failure rate for food trucks is just 10 to 20 percent (as opposed to 60 to 90 percent for restaurants). With the right equipment and some great recipes, you can have your mobile eatery up and running in no time.

4. Travelling Salons As people live longer, there’s an increasing need for senior services of all sorts, and not all of these needs are related to health care. One service that has nothing but growth potential is a mobile salon that travels to customers’ residences to do their hair or nails. As aging baby boomers move into the senior-citizen category, there will be a growing need for these mobile services that help keep them looking good without requiring them to make a trip to the salon.
A vending machine is a machine that dispenses items such as snacks, beverages, alcohol, cigarettes, lottery tickets to customers automatically, after the customer inserts currency or credit into the machine. The first modern vending machines were developed in England in the early 20th century and dispensed postcards.
5. Healthy Vending Machines More and more health-conscious and time-strapped Australians are looking for quick food on the go that is healthier than the soda and chips you usually find in vending machines. Interested entrepreneurs can either open a franchise from an existing vending machine business or sell vending-machine friendly products to help stock up schools and offices with healthier, affordable snacks.
