<h2>Neurodiversity in the Workplace</h2><p>A unique &amp;'flexinar' programme</p><p>The term &amp;'Neurodiversity' was coined by Judy Singer in the 1990s. It recognises and celebrates the fact that we are all &amp;'wired' differently, and will therefore bring different ways of thinking, feeling and doing to what we do. Finally, organisations are beginning to realise that their practices need to be designed in a way that recognises, values and embraces this diversity, and the individuals concerned.</p><p>This virtual classroom session, designed and delivered by Elisabeth Goodman, offers an opportunity to develop your understanding of Neurodiversity, and of the steps you can take to create an end-to-end employee experience where individuals and your organisation can thrive.</p><p>The session relies on participants using the activities presented and group chat to apply ideas and learning to their personal experiences.</p><h3>Learning objectives</h3><ul><li>Identify how your personal experience of Neurodiversity is relevant to your perspective on, and learning from, the programme</li><li>Understand the nature of Neurodiversity and how its interpretation is influenced by the lens through which it is seen</li><li>Learn about legal and associated requirements and resources</li><li>Understand how your current organisational practices may be enabling or limiting the value to be gained from Neurodiversity</li><li>Determine your role in relation to Neurodiversity in the workplace</li><li>Formulate an action plan to take back to work</li></ul><section>

<h2>Change Management</h2><p>To achieve continuing success, organisations need to change to keep ahead of the competition, take advantage of the rapid development of technology and meet customers' expectations. In an agile environment, change management is even more important because of its iterative nature, its impact on readiness and culture and the increased churn. Managers have an important role in initiating and implementing change, innovation and continuous improvement. This practical virtual session focuses on the strategy, implementation and process of change management, thinking about how it can be achieved effectively in an agile and changing environment.</p><h3>Learning Objectives</h3><ul><li>Understand the leader's role in change and how everyone can initiate change</li><li>Know how to plan for change in a fluctuating or agile environment</li><li>Be aware of the KÃ¼bler-Ross change curve and know how to handle their / others' emotions</li><li>Acquire practical techniques for getting buy-in and dealing with resistance</li></ul><section>
                    <h3>Welcome, agenda, overview</h3><p>What are some of the challenges to change management in an agile environment? Group discussion. What are some of the positives? Poll activity to define benefits. Objectives, agenda.</p><h3>Understanding change</h3><p>Discussion using audio/microphones to draw out the roles and responsibilities of leaders in change. How can these differ in different environments? For example, in a linear process it would require paperwork, standardisation and formalising of new ways of working, where this wouldn't be as possible in an agile environment. A guide for good leadership in different situations is drawn up using whiteboard.</p><h3>The Change Curve</h3><p>Introduction or refresher on the Kubler-Ross change curve. Understanding the stages people go through. In an agile environment, disruption can happen much earlier than in a linear process so emotions and resistance may happen earlier in the process. The group brainstorm ways to plan for and counter this. How gaining buy-in can be important for reducing resistance.</p><h3>Emotions in change</h3><p>Managing the emotions of others, and your own emotions. How to create feelings of empowerment in team members by giving them ownership over the change through 1% improvements. How to handle people who feel angry or demotivated or through periods of uncertainty. Scenario discussion using written 'chat'.</p><h3>Action plans and next steps</h3><p>Participants reflect on their next steps and how they will implement their learning in the workplace. Each person makes a commitment for what they will do differently in a group whiteboard which can be circulated to participants following the session as a reminder of their actions.</p>

This page is primarily used for heat pump designs. Once you specify the flow temperature for each room the SCOP (Seasonal Coefficient of Performance) values will be shown, and the system will show if radiators are over or undersized.
CURRENT RADIATORS
Use the app on site to enter the current radiators and our system will display the output values for different flow temperatures.
FUEL COMPARISON
Multiple fuels to compare against, you can adjust the price per unit and CO2 factor (kg/kWh). Present these running costs to your clients.
PHOTOS AND NOTES
Photos and notes which you or your surveyors have taken will be shown when you open the report from your dashboard. You may also upload and download photos from your PC / laptop too.

For new users and the curious.

Hello,

For new users and the curious.

IMPORTANT: Firstly, once you are signed up, send us your requests on what you would like to see within the demonstration and learn on the course. We will then cater for your needs and answer them during the session.

This is designed to be an introduction into how to start a room by room survey using the Heat Engineer app, then sending this survey to the online dashboard. We will then go through the different steps to complete this heat loss report. Optional pages will also be worked through and shown. 

Examples of how to select the flow temperature and the heat source (heat pumps and boilers) will be presented once the heat loss result is completed.
