<h2>The Evolving Project Manager - Past, Present and Future</h2>
Tom Kasel, 2019 recipient of the Project Management Institute Educational Foundation (PMIEF) Kerzner Award for Excellence in Project Management, presents his perceptions and interpretations of the 'The Evolving Project Manager'.
In his session, Tom shares a historical perspective of the project management profession, noting the formation of the Project Management Institute (PMI). He travels a theoretical journey that transcends PMI leadership styles of transactional and transformational leadership perspectives.He continues this discussion by noting the need for additional theoretical migration to Values-Based Leadership-an emerging concept that addresses the cultural, spiritual, political needs and diversity of today's global markets. Tom looks to inspire the PM community with his observations, which have the potential to transition the industry by focusing on universal - individual values, beliefs (The 'Cosmic Core') and practices.

<h2>The Future of Medicine</h2>
This session focuses on the innovations in medicine and how this industry (much like humanity) is evolving. New technology in the computing arena, the biosensor realm and genetics, and the world of "omics" is converging to deliver much more precise care. Although still in its infancy, the worlds are intersecting and advancing at warp speed.
This and other IIL Learning in Minutes presentations qualify for PDUs. Some titles, such as Agile-related topics may qualify for other continuing education credits such as SEUs, or CEUs.Key Takeaways:
<ul>
<li>How medicine is evolving in its ability to diagnose and treat diseases more precisely</li>
<li>How artificial intelligence is being used to uncover ailments before our current technology can even identify their existence</li>
<li>What are "Omics" and how are they advancing healthcare</li>
<li>The biosensors revolution &amp; what it means to the future of healthcare diagnosis and delivery</li>
</ul>

<h2>Practical and Passionate Product Ownership</h2>
Agile product ownership is arguably the most important work leading to successful product outcomes. Product owners need to be inventive, yet intensely focused; collaborative, yet decisive; far-sighted, yet detail-oriented. Learn key practices, aptitudes, and attitudes of successful product owners.
This and other IIL Learning in Minutes presentations qualify for PDUs. Some titles, such as Agile-related topics may qualify for other continuing education credits such as SEUs, or CEUs.
Each professional development activity yields one PDU for one hour spent engaged in the activity. Some limitations apply and can be found in the Ways to Earn PDUs section that discusses PDU activities and associated policies.
Fractions of PDUs may also be reported. The smallest increment of a PDU that can be reported is 0.25. This means that if you spent 15 minutes participating in a qualifying PDU activity, you may report 0.25 PDU. If you spend 30 minutes in a qualifying PDU activity, you may report 0.50 PDU.

Welcome! And thank you for being curious about The Goddess Hour. If you are searching for connection, this could be for you. Each event is different and is filled with Love and Laughter.I am given a theme for the evening, usually on the day of the event itself and this then becomes our focus for the session, as we follow the guidance and teachings that arise through spoken word, meditation and sharing.They are beautiful spontaneous affairs that are always different and sometimes surprising! Most importantly they foster a great sense of connection within and without and everyone feels empowered and inspired through attending.I was guided by the great Goddess Isis to run the first of these events back in May of 2023 and they have been taking place ever since, on the last Wednesday of the month.They really are special events. Come to one or come to many! There are no rules. If you would welcome the opportunity to connect with other like-minded women, then maybe this is for you...A sacred hour just for you, to feel held, nurtured and cherished. Oh and I always pull everyone a Goddess Card at the end of the session. Some beautiful individual guidance from the Goddesses themselves...Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions or take the plunge and come along to the next one. The only way you will discover if it&#39;s for you, like anything in life, is to take part...! And this year, more than ever, feels like it&#39;s time that we do things that we have never done before...

We reflect on our practises and discuss our experiences of home practice. We learn about aspects of stress reduction and the neuroscience of mindfulness and complete a new practice each week. The mindfulness practices include guided meditations and some gentle movement.&nbsp;What is home practice?&nbsp;Each week we learn a new practice together during the session and participants are given an audio recording of that practice to complete at home. This is because it takes 8 weeks of consistent practice for the benefits of mindfulness to take place. To really get the most out of this course, participants are advised to make space for home practice. (20 - 40 minutes a day)&nbsp;&nbsp;Please note that although mindfulness is therapeutic in nature, it is not therapy and should not be used as a replacement for professional therapy or medication. A pre-assessment is required for all participants to ensure your safety and suitability for the course. We aim to be inclusive to all and may need to discuss your mental health and well-being before being accepted. Your information will only be viewed by the facilitator and will be kept confidential.&nbsp;

An avid reader of anything magical, Maddy joined Madeleine Milburn in 2022 to build a list specialising in SFF.
Maddy would like to see SFF across all genres for all ages, including: grim dark, thriller, historical, romance, cosy fantasy, sci-fi, epic, YA fantasy, dark academia, contemporary fantasy, fantasy middle-grade, mythology, fairy tale and queer fantasy. Inspiring children&rsquo;s non-fiction.
 She loves worlds to get lost in, adventures that transform what it means to be a hero, and unique magic that offers as many problems as solutions. She likes books that make her cry and books that change her mind. Above all, when she finishes a story about another world, she wants it to have taught her a lesson which helps her live in this one.She loves all fantasy, but favours richly imagined, complex worlds with a history to discover and a future to protect. Worldbuilding is one of her favourite aspects of this genre and she is always looking for a new, dense world with series potential. Think Brandon Sanderson&rsquo;s Cosmere or the Marvel Cinematic Universe &ndash; the bigger the better! She also likes character-driven fantasy with a diverse cast to root for (or root against) and she wants to see a range of different relationships depicted authentically. She particularly like epics that dip into big, universal themes such as grief, climate change, or war and which ask impossible questions in the vein of R.F. Kuang or N.K. Jemisin. She is also excited by authors that play with form and language in a fantasy setting.In YA, she is looking for much the same as in an adult fantasy, but with younger protagonists and a closer focus on relationships. She wants to see the tropes she knows and loves in new and exciting forms and her favourite YA books often centre around belonging and becoming. She likes a dash of romance in everything, because she is sentimental that way, but it&rsquo;s particularly important in the YA space.Sci-fi is a big passion of hers, especially when it comes with a strong hook. She is a huge fan of Becky Chamber&rsquo;s The Long Way to a Small Angry Planet and Michaiah Johnson&rsquo;s The Space Between Worlds. &nbsp;She likes space as a metaphor, and would love something that explores different alien species.

LOOKING FOR: MG, YA AND ADULT SCI-FI / FANTASY, CHILDREN'S NON-FICTION
After graduating from St Andrews University with a degree in English Literature and Art History, Maddy followed her love of literature to an internship at non-fiction literary agency Graham Maw Christie. At GMC, Maddy worked her way up to Agent and built a list of authors who wrote for both for adults and children, spanning history, tarot, and nature writing. An avid reader of anything magical, Maddy joined Madeleine Milburn in 2022 to build a list specialising in SFF.

Maddy would like to see SFF across all genres for all ages, including: grim dark, thriller, historical, romance, cosy fantasy, sci-fi, epic, YA fantasy, dark academia, contemporary fantasy, fantasy middle-grade, mythology, fairy tale and queer fantasy. Inspiring children’s non-fiction.


She loves worlds to get lost in, adventures that transform what it means to be a hero, and unique magic that offers as many problems as solutions. She likes books that make her cry and books that change her mind. Above all, when she finishes a story about another world, she wants it to have taught her a lesson which helps her live in this one.
She loves all fantasy, but favours richly imagined, complex worlds with a history to discover and a future to protect. Worldbuilding is one of her favourite aspects of this genre and she is always looking for a new, dense world with series potential. Think Brandon Sanderson’s Cosmere or the Marvel Cinematic Universe – the bigger the better! She also likes character-driven fantasy with a diverse cast to root for (or root against) and she wants to see a range of different relationships depicted authentically. She particularly like epics that dip into big, universal themes such as grief, climate change, or war and which ask impossible questions in the vein of R.F. Kuang or N.K. Jemisin. She is also excited by authors that play with form and language in a fantasy setting.
In YA, she is looking for much the same as in an adult fantasy, but with younger protagonists and a closer focus on relationships. She wants to see the tropes she knows and loves in new and exciting forms and her favourite YA books often centre around belonging and becoming. She likes a dash of romance in everything, because she is sentimental that way, but it’s particularly important in the YA space.
Sci-fi is a big passion of hers, especially when it comes with a strong hook. She is a huge fan of Becky Chamber’s The Long Way to a Small Angry Planet and Michaiah Johnson’s The Space Between Worlds. She likes space as a metaphor, and would love something that explores different alien species. Please send her your space operas and sci-fi romances which combine space, magic and mayhem!
In fantasy middle grade, she favours whimsy and animal companions; she would love to follow a group of kids through magic school. She tends to look for plenty of humour with a strong friendship at the centre, and she wants middle grade stories which engage with the concerns of children growing up as well as offering an all-important escape (preferably on a dragon/unicorn’s back).
She is also looking for children’s non-fiction for all ages. In this space, she wants something as creative as it is informative, and thinks diverse voices are increasingly important.

I Am In Print

Fiction Writing

SOLD OUT! 27th Sept Maddy Belton #Agent121. Looking for: MG, YA, CHILDREN'S NON-FICTION, ADULT FICTION

Everything is energy. This is a simple scientific fact. When our energy is flowing and we are in harmony with ourselves, our world reflects this same harmony. Yet so few of us work in harmony with our energies. We question why we suffer the same problems over and over again. We wonder why we work on ourselves yet still don't seem to see the progress we would like. 
The answer could well lie within your energy.
There are seven main energy centres, or chakras, within our personal energy field that govern different areas of your life. In cleansing and healing each chakra, you open yourself up to cleansing and healing the associated aspect of your life. You clear physical and emotional blocks to free your energies to flow and bring in success, joy, and love. 
As you progress through this 9-week energy healing journey, you will learn about each chakra. You will discover where each one is located in your energetic body as well as what each is associated with so you can connect with that chakra more effectively. You'll discover how your chakras are affecting your health, your relationships, your career, and all other areas of your life. 
Each workshop will start by reflecting on your experience so far and thinking about what you would like to achieve over the next seven days.
We will cover various exercises and activities in the session for you to do throughout the week to continue to work with your energies. You can choose what  you would like to do moving forward to support each chakra. In addition, there are daily journal prompts for you to do first thing in the morning and last thing at night. This is your opportunity to note down your experiences and insights and explore the energy of each chakra in more depth. 
You can do the same activities all week or you can switch things up and do something different every day. This is YOUR journey, so choose what feels right to you. 
If you’re still unsure which ones to do, Thea is available via email for guidance throughout the week. 
In the first week, we will assess your current state of being to establish the baseline you’re working from. This is where you see where you are in this moment so you can compare your progress at the end of the course.  This week is also a useful introduction to establishing the routine you’re going to follow throughout the course. It will help you develop the habit of journaling morning and night and deciding when is good for you to do your chosen activities. You may like to do these first thing in the morning before or after journaling; at some point during the day when you have some time to yourself; or in the evening before you reflect on your day in the journal. 
The second week of the course is when we progress to working with the chakras, starting with the root chakra. We will spend a week connecting with the root chakra and working to free up any blocked or stagnant energy so it’s clear and the energy flowing before you move on to the sacral. After a week with the sacral chakra, we’ll then move up to the solar plexus and so on and so on. 
In the ninth and final week of the course you’ll reflect on your progress and look at the changes you’ve experienced over the past few weeks. You’ll check in with each chakra and notice how it feels now compared to when you started. You’ll be given exercises you can do moving forward to keep you connected to your personal flow of energy so you can identify and clear any blocks before they can cause any problems. 
When you’ve finished, you may feel there’s more work you need to do. Replays will be available to all attendees, so you can go back and focus on the chakra(s) you think need extra support or simply go back to the beginning and start the process all over again!
Everyone who signs up for the course will receive a free copy of the accompanying workbook so they have a personal record of their experience of the course.
