Go face-to-face with the trade…

HCD’s interviews are respected throughout the trade. Many of the industry’s movers and shakers have featured within the pages of HCD in the five years since we began publishing, from CEOs of massive multinationals, to managing directors of important British concerns. And as well as giving us unique insights into the inner workings of their companies, our interviewees have valid opinions as to the general state of our markets, and hints and tips of how best to deal with things like the internet and the credit crunch.

Interviews take two forms in HCD: Face-2-Face and Q&A. The latter is the last thing you’ll read in a given edition of the magazine, featuring as it does on the penultimate page before the back cover ad. We ask our interviewee a number of probing questions, usually about their company, our industry and hints to the trade. It’s a bite-sized interview, and perfect for that short coffee break. Face-2-Face is more in-depth, and typically takes up two pages (although we’re looking to expand this by popular demand). Here, the interviewee responds to questions put to him or her during a relaxed session with master interviewer and Associate Editor, Alan Sircom. These sessions are hugely over-subscribed: everyone wants to take part. As a result, we’re expanding our Face-2-Face coverage for future issues of the magazine.
