this is worklife from bbc news, with sally bundock and nuala mcgovern. the former chair of the us reserve has died at the age of 92. he was appointed head of the us central bank in 1979 appointed head of the us central bank in1979 and appointed head of the us central bank in 1979 and served in the top position for eight years. he is best known for raising interest rates to combat high inflation but actually drove the us economy into remission at the time. his policies were regarded as instrumental for long—term growth in the united states. south africa has been hit by the biggest rolling energy blackouts in its history, after heavy rains flooded power stations run by state utility firm eskom. the company which produces almost

all of the electricity generated in south africa, said it could only meet 80% of the country's energy demand. eskom currently has debts of around $30 billion and has relied on state funding to remain operational. investors in the uk have pulled out almost £100 million from property funds, after the country's largest property fund — m&g — suspended withdrawals last week. according to the fund transaction network calastone, £61 million was withdrawn on thursday and £36 million on friday. m&g blamed its temporary suspension on "brexit—related political uncertainty" and difficulties among retailers. let's turn to gaming now, because japan's nintendo is officially launching its popular switch gaming console in china today. interestingly, it's teaming up with tencent. perhaps the biggest gaming company in the world. let's go to our asia business hub where shara njit leyl is following the story. is this something that is going to

be is seen in the sing up your —— singapore bureaus in? really, it is china being able to see it abide for the first time. as a result, nintendo shares have risen 3% in tokyo today to 19 month high is because investors have pinned high hopes on super mario and pokemon appealing to consumers. the nintendo switch may have gone on sale with the help of tencent but it faces big challenges in what will be a huge market if it succeeds there. chinese consumers love free to play mobile games. they are not accustomed to playing on video game consoles which is why sony's playstation has failed to make much of an impression. coupled with that beijing has imposed rules that limit how much consumers can play those games in an effort to curb gaming addiction. children under 18 are banned from playing online between ten p m— 80 and on weekdays and there are

restrictions on the amount of money minors can transfer to their accou nts minors can transfer to their accounts and consumers didn't have the luxury of playing on foreign consoles which were banned until 2018 and it is still something of a niche category. i understand it is secret santa day in the singapore bureau. what did you get? i am curious. actually, i got, amazingly, avr curious. actually, i got, amazingly, a vr console thing. i don't know how to use it! it was all under $20, apparently, so i assumed this qualified but everyone else got amazing gifts. we had a plant. who got rico's mug? you said he put a mug in there. i don't know. there we re mug in there. i don't know. there were a couple of mugs. those are beautiful singapore mug with the beautiful singapore mug with the beautiful skyline behind it. other

things were very interesting... we will have to leave it there. it is a nice insight into our team in singapore. lovely to see you. that's what they've been up to today. covering all the news as well. these are the markets in asia. pretty muted, pretty lacklustre. they have a federal reserve meeting today and tomorrow. a decision on cost of borrowing in the world's biggest economy will be happening on wednesday, that is the european central bank and the uk election. so, it is a week where investors are on the sidelines, not sure what to do and waiting on the fed. let's look at europe, and see how we have been doing. a0 minutes of the day in on the trading day, pretty negative so far with both germany and london down around half a %. the world trade organization is facing a crisis in its system for settling disputes between member countries. today is the final day on which its appeal court

will have the minimum number ofjudges to consider cases. two of those judges are completing their terms and there will be just one left. the us has blocked the appointment of replacements. so, how did the wto get to this impasse? here's andrew walker to explain. the wto system for resolving disputes has been called its crown jewel and is designed to make sure the scales ofjustice are evenly balanced, no matter the size of the country. but it is facing a major crisis. when countries lose their wto dispute, they can appeal to the appellate body. it's supposed to have a pool of sevenjudges. three are needed to rule on an appeal. they are appointed for a fixed period but the trump administration has blocked the replacement ofjudges when their terms end saying they are effectively creating new trade laws by the back door. their numbers have dwindled to the point to the court is running out ofjudges so the appellate body won't be able to take on any more cases. this means any country that loses in the first stage of a dispute can block any ruling by appealing

which freezes the process. all this feeds into concerns over the future of the rules—based global trading system with many worried the world may see a return to the days where might is right. that is an interesting story to keep your eye on. andrew walker unveiling that decision with the wto, what will happen with the judges. time now for our daily look at some of the newspaper and website stories which have caught our eye. joining me is riaz kanani, co—founder of radiate b2b. good morning. so you found this during the financial times, a commentary piece, really, a bit of an editorial, looking at how common are bad bosses? that is the simple question in the europe and a p pa re ntly question in the europe and apparently there are not many out there. 13%. so, apparently there are not many out there. 1396. so, we seem to hear more of them than the good bosses. may be that as a cultural thing. we are

more ready to criticise than we are to be positive about those in charge. i wonder, what are the qualities, though? does everybody agree on what isa though? does everybody agree on what is a good boss or a bad boss? there are some big ones. the interesting one i thought was most interesting was actually looking at a bass's ability to get the job done. when you talk about bosses respecting employees, we talk about them doing employees, we talk about them doing employee development but just employees, we talk about them doing employee development butjust a manager that is pushing paper around and not actually getting the job done and actually understanding the business was one of the big indicators. sally: this article talks about one of the key things that make an employee happy. so, it is pay, length of working hours, when they are employed in a small, personal environment. those three things will

make an employee happy. but if they've got a bad boss, that outweighs the sum of all of them which is really interesting. yes. i think all of us have had a bad boss in ourtime. and think all of us have had a bad boss in our time. and when that happens, it overrides everything, your quality of life decreases. did you doa quality of life decreases. did you do a lot of swatting on how to be a good boss before starting your company? i learnt a lot from my old bosses. the dos and don'ts, absolutely. there is always difficult situations with bosses as well. it is how you handle those situations as well as the good times. clive: surely move on? hakuba karaoke and walkie talkie it was found by which? , karaoke and walkie talkie it was found by which?, a consumer group. people are able to listen in? talk us people are able to listen in? talk us through this. so, the underlying technology, which for those of us that have got wireless headphones and the like, you have to press a

button to connect to the other device. that's how these toys work. which? has come out and said these can be misused, which, honestly, i think it is stretching things a little bit. clive: na by stranger could talk to children. how easy is it to activate it? and what extent the parent has set the security before the toddler gets hold of the device, there is a lot more to this. it is a potentially problem and i've got kids myself and it is one of the things you worry about. the more complicated these toys become, the more open they are to being hacked. my more open they are to being hacked. my kids know more about their toys than i do. thankyou. are you struggling to get a good idea of the ground? we speak to one firm trying to boost business

literacy. you are with worklife from bbc news. before we talk about top tips for new businesses, 130 million e bikes are set to be sold in the next three years as the proportion of people who cycle to work continues to go up. that's according to the latest technology predictions from deloitte. let's find out more from paul lee, deloitte's global head of technology, media and telecoms research. lovely to have you with us. what are the big trends you are seeing our views should know about?l the big trends you are seeing our views should know about? a key trend is around the electrification of bicycles so if you take a lithium iron battery and put in a car you still have a car. if you put a battery into a bike, then you can reinvent the premise of a bike. you are no longer optimising for weight. it can become a people carrier, it can become a way of doing last mile

delivery. really enables you to reinvent the entire category. we need to reinvent safety on the road as well, don't we? yes, we do and bluetooth which was mentioned is a way of making it easier to indicate. you can have a lot more cameras and also you can use technology to work out where to deploy the right bike lanes and it's very difficult to reinvent a city but the technology we have the information about how people move around and it enables us to move around when we cycle. nuala: i know a lot of the aspects you talk about are more of the... aspects and ways it can be attached but i thought fitness was often with bicycles but that seems to have moved on. i think the important thing is to try to get people commuting. fitness comes with it. what we have seen in lots of research studies is even if you have an electric bike, all it is doing is boosting you so you still pedal so

people of all ages are still getting a lot of exercise from electric bikes. nuala: but they are so expensive. they are but there are subsidies available. subsidies are quite significant. in germany in the first half of this year there were one million ebikes sold. thank you, fascinating. some of the trend is to keep an eye on. it is the air breathe, it you depends where you are cycling on the ebike. uphill it is helpful. lets look at ted baker shares, dropping 25% in london. this is seeing shares plunge, it is very cautious about the weeks and months ahead, especially with the uk election and the outcome quite unknown. you are watching worklife, let's remind you of our top survey. a global survey says climate change is

one of the biggest challenges facing the world. this comes as greta thunberg is set to address government ministers meeting in madrid. have you got a burning idea for a business? if you have, what's put you off starting it? it might be lack of funds — most people think you need money to start a business. but some take a different approach. the popup business school trains people with little capital but lots of ideas. they call themselves an alternative to traditional business schools, and aim to help people from all walks of life to start their own businesses. simon paine, co—founder and ceo of popup business school is with us now. welcome to worklife. so, how does it work? it's this, we have a sponsorship model, so it is the best business school money can't buy. people turn up free, they get two weeks of all sorts of training, support, guidance and a new network of friends to help them get their

business ideas up and running. two weeks which is 50 hours of expert training forfree which weeks which is 50 hours of expert training for free which sounds fantastic. who is sponsoring you because you are a mix of organisations, social housing providers, we've got councils like westminster city council, these organisations want social impact, they want to help the residents and starting businesses in communities has got to be a good thing. nuala: a0% of respondents to a survey that took a look at 65 economies worldwide thought it was easy to start a business. would you agree with that with your experience? i wouldn't say it is easy but we are in a place at the moment where it has never been easier to get a business idea off the ground because technology has changed so much. that is a massive enabler. we have information at our fingertips, we can start a business in minutes, we can build a free website in minutes and go and use social media and start talking to customers who have got those things there. i wouldn't say it is easy but it is easier than it was. you started this in 2011. have you seen

this change since the referendum in 2016? everyone is talking about uncertainty, how difficult it is for businesses to navigate this period we are in the uk. what is your experience? it is an upward trend. our courses are getting fuller. it isn't necessarily about the referendum but it is certainly about people wanting to take control of their destiny and the uncertainty out there over jobs their destiny and the uncertainty out there overjobs and over our futures and so on means if you're making your own money, 1a to 20 customers a month could be life changing so if people are earning their money they are ensuring themselves against uncertainty. how do people hold on to control of their ideas if they don't have a lot of capital? for us the thought about holding on to ideas is about saying you can have 100% of nothing so hang on to your idea and don't have any customers or put your ideas out there and make progress and we find there and make progress and we find the best way to protect your idea is to be online. before you started this you worked in the police for

some ten years. what has been tra nsfera ble some ten years. what has been transferable in terms of skills?” left them in 2003 with two edges. i was going to be a successful entrepreneur or successful rock star. the fact i'm talking to you both tells you which one i was more successful at! things like communication skills, that is so transferable. business in general is all about communication. dealing with all sorts of people from every walk of life. interesting. simon, thank you for coming in. we shall talk through your ideas on what makes a good boss injust we shall talk through your ideas on what makes a good boss in just a moment. you've sent in plenty. but first, poaching of elephants and rhinos is a major concern in africa. but animal reserves across the continent face an insidious and far more common form of poaching — snares. these steel wire traps indiscriminately maim and kill animals every week.

but now a new business is re—forging these death traps into fashion products in order to educate the world about their dangers. let's take a look. snares are also called the silent killer of africa. not a lot of people know about it. and if you think about a snare just being a trap in a bush, people don't actually realise the impact that snares have on a lot of different animals and a lot of different species. problem is with snares is they are not targeted at specific species. so, any animal that comes across a snare has a chance of injury or death. i was out on a snare patrol one morning. i was holding a bunch of snares in my hands and i thought, you know what, what is the story that this snare tells? i came up with the idea of making a bracelet that anybody can wear and it tells the story of something that was so destructive once and turned into something hopeful. i'd say in the last eight months, we've probably transformed about... 800 snares into various products,

that being belt buckles, bracelets, and rings. a lot of our clients haven't been personally affected by snaring or they are just not that educated on that topic. so, we sell our bracelets and we include an information pamphlet that explains what snares are and what they do and what damage and destruction they cause. and, then, through that, everyone wearing a bracelet, they can spread that story and that's how we educate people. welcome at the top of the show, we asked you about your experience of bosses, the good, the bad... sally: let's take a look at what you've been saying. i like that list.

this is to ideas and discusses their good or bad points. that comes down to work balance!. sally: alan mercer says it needs to be approachable. no matter what the situation good or bad you should be able to approach a boss otherwise small problems start to fester. i'd agree with that! i think it is great if you know you can talk to your boss, whether it be male or female, whatever the situation. nuala: only 13% of bad bosses according to that report! sally: maybe you might think there are more. "if they show me respect ivanova problem showing them respect. however, sometimes there isn't that mutual respect in the workplace". thanks for all your

comments. nuala: thanks for watching worklife on bbc. good morning. it was a frosty start to the day across eastern areas of england but further west not as cold but we have had a lot more cloud, some rain moving its way and all linked into a very deep area of low pressure moving towards iceland today and you can see this sheet of cloud here right across the uk which could bring some disruptive weather especially around the irish sea coast with severe gales and some heavy rain to go with it. you can see that quite clearly on the graphics through this morning, pushing its way eastwards apache rain towards east anglia and the south—east of england into this afternoon. a windy afternoon for all of us but in particular around these irish sea coasts gusting 60—70 miles an hour even
