<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.

<p>Stress continues to have a major impact in organisations. According to HSE research, the total number of working days lost due to this condition last year was 9.9 million days with stress accounting for 43% of all working days lost due to ill health. Despite this huge impact, CIPD research shows that many organisations are failing to take adequate steps to proactively identify and reduce stress in the workplace and many struggle to recognise and support staff who are already suffering from stress-related symptoms.</p>
<p>This programme has therefore been designed to help HR professionals identify how they can best support their organisation in preventing, reducing and managing stress. It recognises the role that HR can play in helping develop proactive strategies to reduce incidents of work-related stress as well as helping individuals to cope with or recover from stressful situations. It also recognises the important role that HR has in equipping managers with the necessary knowledge, skills and confidence to manage stress within their team appropriately. The workshop provides participants with a wealth of ideas, strategies and tools to use within their organisations. It draws on current research, best practice guidance, lessons from case law and learning from a wide range of organisations in the form of case studies.</p><ul><li>UNDERSTAND THE IMPACT OF STRESS AT WORK AND THE CAUSES OF WORK-RELATED STRESS</li><li>UNDERSTAND THE BENEFITS OF PROACTIVELY MANAGING STRESS, INCLUDING MINIMISING LEGAL RISK</li><li>KNOW HOW HR CAN BEST SUPPORT THE ORGANISATION AS A WHOLE IN MANAGING STRESS AND, IN PARTICULAR, HOW TO SUPPORT MANAGERS PREVENT AND RESPOND APPROPRIATELY TO STRESS WITHIN THEIR TEAM</li><li>HAVE LEARNT HOW OTHER ORGANISATIONS TACKLE STRESS AND THE RANGE OF SUPPORT AND WIDER TOOLS AND INITIATIVES AVAILABLE</li><li>HAVE REVIEWED HOW THEIR ORGANISATION PREVENTS AND MANAGES STRESS AND HAVE IDENTIFIED AREAS FOR IMPROVEMENT</li></ul><section>

Almost every year, 911,400 projects are started, giving more workplaces and opportunities. According to the May 2022 report, the annual mean wage in business was $76,850, which was higher than the median annual wage for all occupations of $46,310</em>.</p></blockquote><p fr-original-style="" style="color: var(--text); font-size: var(--font-size); box-sizing: border-box;">Due to its high scope in the job market, students are enrolling on this subject in a streamline. But when&nbsp;it&nbsp;comes to coursework and writing final&nbsp;projects,&nbsp;it makes the&nbsp;lives of the students full of stress. In this scenario, students have to find useful tips before writing their business administration thesis, or avail of&nbsp;<a href="https://www.theacademicpapers.co.uk/dissertation-writing-services/" fr-original-style="" style="user-select: auto; font-size: var(--font-size); box-sizing: border-box; cursor: pointer; text-decoration: inherit;">thesis writing help</a>&nbsp;to ease their burden.<strong fr-original-style="" style="font-weight: 700; box-sizing: border-box;">&nbsp;</strong></p><h2 fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Secrets to Writing a Business Administration Thesis&nbsp;</h2><p fr-original-style="" style="color: var(--text); font-size: var(--font-size); box-sizing: border-box;">Thesis&nbsp;Writing&nbsp;is a prolonged procedure and a hard task for students to go with a single step. There are multiple steps and proven strategies that will help you write your Business Administration&nbsp;thesis impressively.&nbsp;</p><h3 fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">1. Manage Your Time&nbsp;</h3><p fr-original-style="" style="color: var(--text); font-size: var(--font-size); box-sizing: border-box;">Time management is a key to completing a long project efficiently. You need to focus on effective time management to divide your writing procedure into different tasks and then prioritise these tasks considering the deadline. Breaking your time down for a thesis in business administration can be done properly in the following ways:</p><ul fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;"><li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Consider the project deadline&nbsp;</li><li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Break up the thesis process into small tasks in an imaginable way&nbsp;</li><li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Use any available schedule tool like a calendar&nbsp;</li><li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Maintain a health schedule balance&nbsp;</li></ul><p fr-original-style="" style="color: var(--text); font-size: var(--font-size); box-sizing: border-box;">There is a book,&nbsp;&ldquo;From Proposal to Defence: Navigating the Thesis Writing Process&rdquo;&nbsp;written Prof. Dr Balasubramanian Thiagarajan. It represents a rough time allotment for different tasks in the thesis writing procedure.</p><h3 fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">2. Follow the Institute&rsquo;s Requirements</h3><p fr-original-style="" style="color: var(--text); font-size: var(--font-size); box-sizing: border-box;">The next best and proven tip is to follow your institute&#39;s guidelines. For this purpose, first, you have to read your instructions carefully, and if there is any term which seems unknown to you, ask your supervisor about it for better understanding. When you understand the guidelines, you will be able to articulate your thesis according to the supervisor&#39;s expectations and increase the chances of being distinct.&nbsp;</p><h3 fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">3. Choose the Thesis Topic Wisely</h3><p fr-original-style="" style="color: var(--text); font-size: var(--font-size); box-sizing: border-box;">This is the most basic but very difficult step in writing a thesis. It will take some days, some weeks or months. It all depends upon your dedication towards your project. Choosing business administration thesis topics carefully will determine the rest of the thesis writing procedure. While choosing a thesis topic, you have to consider the elements:&nbsp;</p><ul fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;"><li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Recent research topics&nbsp;</li><li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Preview previous studies and research&nbsp;</li><li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Recognise the research gap</li><li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Data collection available sources&nbsp;</li><li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Focus on your personal interest&nbsp;</li><li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Also, evaluate your supervisor&#39;s speciality&nbsp;</li></ul><h3 fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">4. Do Proper Research&nbsp;</h3><p fr-original-style="" style="color: var(--text); font-size: var(--font-size); box-sizing: border-box;">After choosing a topic, the next is to conduct extensive research on your selected topic by reading a business administration thesis sample to collect enough information and ideas for writing a thesis. In this way, you first need to identify which type of data you require to mention in the thesis, either primary or secondary data. <u fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">According to Mobility Academy</u>, you can collect your primary data by observation, experiment, surveys, and self-assessment,&nbsp;as&nbsp;represented&nbsp;below:</p><p fr-original-style="" style="color: var(--text); font-size: var(--font-size); box-sizing: border-box;"><img src="https://images.cademy.co.uk/2e39c2b3-d53c-4f02-b288-69956dd8f61f/aebb2860-1bd2-49dc-b096-50142e711bb7/original.png" alt="Do Proper Research " style="color: rgb(16, 24, 64); width: 100%; cursor: pointer; padding: 0px 1px; user-select: none; max-width: 100%; position: relative; box-sizing: border-box;" id="isPasted" fr-original-style="color: rgb(16, 24, 64); width: 100%;" fr-original-class="fr-draggable"><br fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">You can collect your secondary data by reviewing existing literature reviews, going through libraries, and searching Google Scholar for the latest and authentic research data regarding your topic.</p><h3 fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">5. Mind Mapping Your Ideas&nbsp;</h3><p fr-original-style="" style="color: var(--text); font-size: var(--font-size); box-sizing: border-box;">A&nbsp;mind&nbsp;map&nbsp;is&nbsp;a representation of your ideas, words,&nbsp;tasks, concepts, or items arranged around a central concept in&nbsp;the shape of a diagram.</p><p fr-original-style="" style="color: var(--text); font-size: var(--font-size); box-sizing: border-box;">Mind mapping is all about generating ideas and collecting them in a diagram while representing different tasks of thesis writing to cover the central concept and subject matter. For mind-mapping ideas, the following steps will be fruitful for you;&nbsp;</p><ul fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;"><li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Centralise the subject matter.</li><li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Write key features and important points around it&nbsp;</li><li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Create a connection between the central keyword and the important points&nbsp;</li><li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Line up branches to connect, then&nbsp;</li><li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Use to write single keywords instead of writing whole sentences.&nbsp;</li></ul><p fr-original-style="" style="color: var(--text); font-size: var(--font-size); box-sizing: border-box;">ISG Siegen gives an example of mind-mapping ideas in their article&nbsp;<u fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">&ldquo;How to write a thesis (Bachelor, Master, or PhD) and which software tools to use.&rdquo;</u></p><h3 fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">6.

Strategic planning is often perceived as being difficult and requiring specialist skills - and also as being too challenging or lacking value when the future is so uncertain; leaders can often find it difficult to know how best to go about strategic planning in their organisation, and how to ensure that strategy is managed successfully.

In this Strategy Insights Masterclass we will start from 'first principles' and explore what strategic planning is really about and how to approach it effectively (including how to consider the uncertainty of the future). The aim is to stimulate your thinking about what might be the right approach to strategic planning in your organisation (every organisation is different!); the Masterclass will be participative, with opportunities to work and share ideas with other delegates (without disclosing any organisational confidences).
[This Masterclass has been given previously for specific groups, and given the feedback from participants is now being made available for open booking.]

Untangle your Data Governance issue and collaborate with your peers during this one-day Mastermind
Discuss Data Governance approaches with people who get it
Are you struggling with a Data Governance issue and wish you had a team of other Data Governance professionals you could bounce it around with?
You’ve done Data Governance training and you know what you’re focusing on. While your team is supportive, you spend a lot of time dealing with, and driving forward, culture change, managing stakeholders, and fielding questions from people who have their own priorities and now need to do this ‘Data Governance stuff’ on top. 
It would be nice, once in a while, to have a conversation about how to achieve something free from internal issues. You want to talk about best practices and get some alternative ideas.
That’s what my Data Governance Mastermind gives you: space to reflect with the support of your peers and practical solutions you can implement.
What is a mastermind?
Mastermind groups are the definition of ‘sharing is caring’. It’s you and your fellow peers – people who do what you do - gathering to brainstorm, problem solve, set goals and be each other’s support network.
At the Data Governance Mastermind, you will meet and learn from other people implementing Data Governance initiatives. 
It’s a one-day event, on Zoom. One of the benefits of attending is you’ll get 30 minutes in the ‘hot seat’ where you can share something you’re struggling with and get input from the group. 
What you can expect during the day
Discussions about different aspects of Data Governance and the opportunity to share what’s worked for you.
Tailored advice specific to your situation from me.
Insights from other people implementing Data Governance about what’s worked for them, what hasn’t worked, and how they have tackled issues.
30 minutes in the hot seat so you can share something you need help with and get practical suggestions from the rest of the delegates.
Time to reflect and share learnings from discussions so you have your key takeaways written down, ready to take back to work with you.
Get to know other Data Governance professionals and build a support network
Get an action plan and confidence to take your next steps with Data Governance
Get ready to discover new ways of approaching your Data Governance challenges, while getting to know professionals from a range of industries.
You will:
Get a clear action plan to take away with you to tackle your specific Data Governance issues.
Develop a wider network of supportive Data Governance professionals, people got your back and will be available to continue to network and ask advice or in the future.
Leave with the confidence that you're not alone in tackling these issues. There are other people going through similar experiences that are willing to help you out.
Is attending a Mastermind right for me? 
Every individual's Data Governance journey is unique. Take my scorecard to determine if my Mastermind programme is the right fit for you and will effectively support your specific needs. You can also find out more about the day on my website.

She would really love to see more strong, memorable women in crime. In bookclub fiction, voices that have stayed with her are Adduni in <em fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">The Girl With The Louding Voice</em>, Cyril in <em fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">The Heart&rsquo;s Invisible Furies</em> and Molly in <em fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">The Maid</em>.

It doesn&rsquo;t need to be overly complex &ndash; sometimes the simplest ideas are the best. She wants to be thrown curveballs she never saw coming and be kept guessing until the last page. Books Laura has devoured are <em fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Nightwatching, The Housemaid</em>, <em fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">The Last Mrs Parrish</em>, <em fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Fourth Wing</em>, <em fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">None of This is True</em> and<em fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">&nbsp;American Dirt</em>.</p><p fr-original-style="" style="color: var(--text); font-size: var(--font-size); box-sizing: border-box;">Books that play with genre also capture Laura. Novels such as <em fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Wrong Place, Wrong Time</em> which combined a crime mystery and the story of a mother&rsquo;s love with a speculative element and <em fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">The Time Traveller&rsquo;s Wife</em>, a high-concept love story which crossed time and age.</p><p fr-original-style="" style="color: var(--text); font-size: var(--font-size); box-sizing: border-box;">Laura is a huge fan of true crime and would love to read a fiction version of podcasts she has been gripped by. She really enjoys cold cases being reopened as a result of new evidence or technology which exposes past injustices such as on <em fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Bone Valley</em>, <em fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">In The Dark</em> or <em fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Who Killed Emma?</em>&nbsp;She is particularly drawn to stories of deep deception or &lsquo;scams&rsquo; such as those by Anna Delvey or Coco Berthmann, <em fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Tinder Swindler</em> or <em fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Fyre Festival.&nbsp;</em>Laura is always intrigued by anything involving investigation into cults, such as in BBC Sound&rsquo;s <em fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">World of Secrets</em>.</p><p fr-original-style="" style="color: var(--text); font-size: var(--font-size); box-sizing: border-box;">She also loves nothing more than sobbing her heart out over a book and being left emotionally wrung-out! Whether it be a devastating historical tragedy or star-crossed lovers torn apart by destiny. &nbsp;Books that have broken her heart include <em fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">The Bridges of Madison County, The Kite Runner,</em>&nbsp;<em fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo</em>, <em fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Birdsong</em>, <em fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">My Sister&rsquo;s Keeper</em>, <em fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Cilka&rsquo;s Journey</em>&nbsp;and <em fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Four Winds</em>.</p><p fr-original-style="" style="color: var(--text); font-size: var(--font-size); box-sizing: border-box;">In non-fiction, Laura is looking for an untold story or perspective or an unexplored area where you have expertise or real-life experience. As a reader of non-fiction she wants to be &nbsp;engaged in a relatable, accessible way. She loved the evocative settings and personal journeys in <em fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">The Salt Path</em>&nbsp;and <em fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">The Wild Other</em>. The laugh-out-loud <em fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">More Than A Woman</em> had her ordering this for many friends. <em fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Three Women</em> and <em fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Educated</em> are brilliant examples of non-fiction books that read like fiction. The awe-inspiring <em fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Do No Harm</em> stayed with Laura long after reading.&nbsp;</p><p fr-original-style="" style="color: var(--text); font-size: var(--font-size); box-sizing: border-box;">Laura is not looking for poetry, novellas, screenplays, or children&rsquo;s books.</p><p fr-original-style="" style="color: var(--text); font-size: var(--font-size); box-sizing: border-box;"><strong fr-original-style="" style="font-weight: 700; box-sizing: border-box;">Laura would like you to submit a covering letter, 1 page synopsis and the first 5,000 words of your completed manuscript in a single word document.</strong></p><p style="box-sizing: border-box; font-size: 16px; color: var(--text); font-family: sans-serif; font-style: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: normal; orphans: 2; text-align: left; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255); text-decoration-thickness: initial; text-decoration-style: initial; text-decoration-color: initial;" fr-original-style="box-sizing: border-box; font-size: 16px; color: var(--text); font-family: sans-serif; font-style: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: normal; orphans: 2; text-align: left; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255); text-decoration-thickness: initial; text-decoration-style: initial; text-decoration-color: initial;">(<em style="box-sizing: border-box;" fr-original-style="box-sizing: border-box;">In addition to the paid sessions, Laura is kindly offering one free session for low income/under-represented writers.&nbsp;</em><em style="box-sizing: border-box;" fr-original-style="box-sizing: border-box;">Please email <a href="mailto:agent121@iaminprint.co.uk" style="box-sizing: border-box; text-decoration: inherit; cursor: pointer; user-select: auto; font-size: var(--font-size);" fr-original-style="box-sizing: border-box; text-decoration: inherit; cursor: pointer; user-select: auto;">agent121@iaminprint.co.uk</a> to apply, outlining your case for this option which is offered at the&nbsp;</em><em style="box-sizing: border-box;" fr-original-style="box-sizing: border-box;">discretion of&nbsp;</em><em style="box-sizing: border-box;" fr-original-style="box-sizing: border-box;">I Am In Print)</em>.&nbsp;</p><p fr-original-style="" style="color: var(--text); font-size: var(--font-size); box-sizing: border-box;">By booking you understand you need to conduct an internet connection test with<strong fr-original-style="" style="font-weight: 700; box-sizing: border-box;">&nbsp;</strong><em style="box-sizing: border-box;" fr-original-style="box-sizing: border-box;">I Am In Pr</em><em style="box-sizing: border-box;" fr-original-style="box-sizing: border-box;">int</em> prior to the event.

LOOKING FOR: ADULT FICTION
Laura studied law at university and spent over 20 years at Virgin Atlantic which allowed her to indulge her passion for reading whilst travelling.
On deciding to pursue a career in publishing, Laura joined the Darley Anderson Agency where she worked across the Women’s Fiction list, reading submissions, handling contracts and supporting authors on their path to publication and beyond.
She co-founded Greenstone Literary with Tanera Simons in 2024 and is excited to build a list of authors.
Laura is looking for commercial crime, thriller, suspense, bookclub, historical and romance fiction as well as select non-fiction.
Above everything she wants to be entertained. Laura is looking for a book you can’t wait to talk to someone about, in the same way as a new film or the latest release on Netflix. A book that engrosses her from the first page to the last, desperate for someone she knows to read so they can discuss as soon as possible.
It will always be an original hook that draws Laura in, a whole concept that can be summed up in one line that immediately stops her in my tracks and makes her think.
Character and voice is also crucial. Laura is a huge fan of Mick Herron’s Jackson Lamb, Richard Osman’s Thursday Murder Club cast and Lynda La Plante’s Jane Tennison. She would really love to see more strong, memorable women in crime. In bookclub fiction, voices that have stayed with her are Adduni in The Girl With The Louding Voice, Cyril in The Heart’s Invisible Furies and Molly in The Maid. Recently, Kitty in How To Kill Men and Get Away With It had Laura secretly rooting for her serial killer antics.
Laura loves to be engrossed by a pacy, twisty, surprising plot. It doesn’t need to be overly complex – sometimes the simplest ideas are the best. She wants to be thrown curveballs she never saw coming and be kept guessing until the last page. Books Laura has devoured are Nightwatching, The Housemaid, The Last Mrs Parrish, Fourth Wing, None of This is True and American Dirt.
Books that play with genre also capture Laura. Novels such as Wrong Place, Wrong Time which combined a crime mystery and the story of a mother’s love with a speculative element and The Time Traveller’s Wife, a high-concept love story which crossed time and age.
Laura is a huge fan of true crime and would love to read a fiction version of podcasts she has been gripped by. She really enjoys cold cases being reopened as a result of new evidence or technology which exposes past injustices such as on Bone Valley, In The Dark or Who Killed Emma? She is particularly drawn to stories of deep deception or ‘scams’ such as those by Anna Delvey or Coco Berthmann, Tinder Swindler or Fyre Festival. Laura is always intrigued by anything involving investigation into cults, such as in BBC Sound’s World of Secrets.
She also loves nothing more than sobbing her heart out over a book and being left emotionally wrung-out! Whether it be a devastating historical tragedy or star-crossed lovers torn apart by destiny. Books that have broken her heart include The Bridges of Madison County, The Kite Runner, The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo, Birdsong, My Sister’s Keeper, Cilka’s Journey and Four Winds.
In non-fiction, Laura is looking for an untold story or perspective or an unexplored area where you have expertise or real-life experience. As a reader of non-fiction she wants to be engaged in a relatable, accessible way. She loved the evocative settings and personal journeys in The Salt Path and The Wild Other. The laugh-out-loud More Than A Woman had her ordering this for many friends. Three Women and Educated are brilliant examples of non-fiction books that read like fiction. The awe-inspiring Do No Harm stayed with Laura long after reading. 
Laura is not looking for poetry, novellas, screenplays, or children’s books.
Laura would like you to submit a covering letter, 1 page synopsis and the first 5,000 words of your completed manuscript in a single word document.
(In addition to the paid sessions, Laura is kindly offering one free session for low income/under-represented writers. Please email agent121@iaminprint.co.uk to apply, outlining your case for this option which is offered at the discretion of I Am In Print).

You also agree to email your material in one document to reach I Am In Print by the stated submission deadline and note that I Am In Print take no responsibility for the advice received during your agent meeting.
The submission deadline is: Thursday 12 September 2024
