<p>Meetings are a traditional and essential component of local government. For both elected members and officers, meetings serve as a forum for discussion and agreement, planning and monitoring, communication and leadership, and decision-making. Used appropriately, meetings can challenge, inspire, illuminate and inform. And while they are not the only meetings that elected members will be asked to attend, committee meetings, in particular, are a mainstay of the political management process.</p><p>Effective chairing is important because it can provide clear leadership and direction, ensure that debates are focused and balanced, enable decisions to be reached and ensure that resources are used to best effect.</p><p>This two-hour 'masterclass'-style workshop will help elected members to understand their role, offer some approaches and ideas that will help to tackle typical challenges, and help to generally improve their effectiveness as a chair.</p><ul><li>To understand the skills and qualities of a good chair</li><li>To learn ideas and approaches for chairing a successful meeting that is on time and achieves its outcomes</li><li>To understand the protocols and boundaries for appropriate meeting etiquette and the chair's role in managing this effectively</li><li>To appreciate how to manage yourself and others appropriately</li><li>To take away personal actions to apply to your role</li></ul><section>

<p>Trade barriers are going up across the globe. And cybercrime is on the increase. The link between the two? The value of trade secrets.</p><p>As countries become increasingly protectionist as regards international trade, so their IP law has been changing, with the result that companies that previously would have sought protection through patents are opting to go down the trade secret route instead. But is this a high-risk strategy? Technology is changing and this is having an impact on forms of commercial co-operation. Collaborative or open forms of innovation by their very nature involve the sharing of intellectual property (IP), and in many instances this IP is in the form of valuable confidential business information (ie, trade secrets). Little surprise, then, that trade secrets disputes have increased accordingly.</p><p>At the same time, the changes in technology make trade secrets more vulnerable to attack, misappropriation, theft.</p><p>So just how effective are the legal protections for trade secrets? How can organisations safeguard the value in their IP (increasingly, the single biggest line in their balance sheets)? This programme is designed to help you address these issues.</p><p>Note: this is an indicative agenda, to be used as a starting point for a conversation between client and consultant, depending on the organisation's specific situation and requirements.</p>This session is designed to give you a deeper understanding of:<ul><li>Emerging trends in trade secrets protection and exploitation</li><li>The current situation in key jurisdictions</li><li>Recent case law</li><li>How leading companies are responding</li><li>The importance of trade secret metadata</li><li>Different external stakeholders and their interests</li><li>Key steps for effective protection of trade secrets</li></ul><section>

An online  gathering at the Soul Shed to journey into your inner world through forest story.
The clearing in the centre of the forest is a magical place of transformation and one where new contact can be made with the creatures and characters of our inner world.
If you are new to intuitive creativity, and The Soul Shed approach to exploring, know that you need no experience to participate in these sessions apart from in being you! Bring your curiosity and imagination, and the forest clearing will contain what you need, as a map and a mirror to learn about yourself in a gentle non-intrusive way.
Supported by the trees of the forest,  we will find this space within and take our time here, meeting with achetypal characters like Red Riding Hood, Woodcutter, Wolf, Green man and woman, Rapunzel,  Prince and Sleeping Beauty, discerning which of these beings wants to share their wisdom with each of us. 
This is an opportunity to go into the world of forest story and to explore your intuitive creativity as a wisdom stream you can connect with through your embodied presence!
