<p>What do engineers and project managers need to know of finance? 'Nothing - leave it to the accountants!'</p><p>No, no, no! Engineers must be conversant with the terminology and statements that accountants use. Technical expertise in projects, service delivery, production or other areas can only really be harnessed if the managers understand the accounting and reporting that drives businesses.</p><p>This course gives the necessary understanding to project, production and technical managers. It develops their skills in understanding financial and management accounting.</p><p>Accountants may not always like it but a major part of their work is to be the 'servants of business' and to gather, compile and present your figures. So you must understand the figures - they belong to you, your processes or projects. There are many reasons for maintaining accurate accounts. This course focuses on the strategic issues (those over-used words) - what figures reveal about the drivers of business and what they reveal about the day-to-day issues that accountants bother you with. The course will enhance your understanding of finance and of the accounting issues which affect your projects, production and technical areas of business.</p>This course will help you:<ul><li>Understand the business world in figures - make sense of what the accountants are telling you</li><li>Appreciate what drives business - and how this affects your role in your part of the business</li><li>Relate your activities to the success of the business - through figures</li><li>Gain the skills to advance in management - financial awareness is a 'must have' if you are to progress in your career</li></ul><section>

<h2>Mindfulness</h2><p>Wellness and wellbeing are experienced differently by all of us. One thing we do know, though, is that when our wellbeing is affected in one area, it can have an impact on other aspects of our lives. By focusing on and improving our overall wellbeing we build our resilience, our ability to cope and bounce back when things get tough. In times of uncertainty it is even more essential that we look after ourselves and ensure that we have the tools and reserves we need to get through and thrive.</p><p>This programme aims to help anybody who would like to strengthen their resilience or would just like to tap into some ways of managing their wellbeing more effectively at home and at work - and especially when working from home. The techniques suggested are up-to-date, evidenced-based approaches that will enable you to optimise your personal resilience rather than spend time wading through endless wellness fads and promotions.</p><p>Participants will be able to identify what they need to do differently in order to maintain their wellbeing and prioritise their personal resilience at work. They will discover ways to deal with challenges, such as negative emotions and feelings of overwhelm, to help their mental fitness. They will be able to take away practical ideas to immediately use in their work and personal lives.</p><h3>Learning objectives</h3><p>The overall objective of this unique programme is that participants will:</p><ul><li>Understand what resilience is and where it comes from</li><li>Learn about proven approaches and models that can be used to boost emotional and physical wellbeing and thereby strengthen resilience</li><li>Break unhealthy habits</li><li>Support others to stay well - at home and at work</li><li>Be inspired to create a wellness action plan and put some of these techniques into practice</li></ul><section>

This means looking at the emotional, social, psychological, physical, financial and spiritual, as well as work, aspects.</p><p>Where are the 'dents' in your wheel? (We all have them!) How can you 'punch them out'? You need the right tools for the job. But you also need the right approach, the right frame of mind.</p><p>This 60-minute virtual session will help you tackle the challenge. It's an opportunity to step back, think about your current state of overall wellbeing, think about how you think about these issues, prioritise development areas, and identify tools and strategies that will help improve your wellbeing and your resilience to the challenges we all face when working from home.</p><h3>Learning objectives</h3><ul><li>Review your current state of overall wellbeing</li><li>Identify your current challenges - particularly when working from home</li><li>Work with those around you to create an environment of resilience</li><li>Develop a self-care plan</li><li>Take away a range of tools and activities to choose from - to use yourself and to share with colleagues, friends and family</li></ul><section>

Wellbeing When Working From Home

<h2>Supporting Others to Stay Well</h2><p>Wellness and wellbeing are experienced differently by all of us. One thing we do know, though, is that when our wellbeing is affected in one area, it can have an impact on other aspects of our lives. By focusing on and improving our overall wellbeing we build our resilience, our ability to cope and bounce back when things get tough. In times of uncertainty it is even more essential that we look after ourselves and ensure that we have the tools and reserves we need to get through and thrive.</p><p>This programme aims to help anybody who would like to strengthen their resilience or would just like to tap into some ways of managing their wellbeing more effectively at home and at work - and especially when working from home. The techniques suggested are up-to-date, evidenced-based approaches that will enable you to optimise your personal resilience rather than spend time wading through endless wellness fads and promotions.</p><p>Participants will be able to identify what they need to do differently in order to maintain their wellbeing and prioritise their personal resilience at work. They will discover ways to deal with challenges, such as negative emotions and feelings of overwhelm, to help their mental fitness. They will be able to take away practical ideas to immediately use in their work and personal lives.</p><h3>Learning objectives</h3><p>The overall objective of this unique programme is that participants will:</p><ul><li>Understand what resilience is and where it comes from</li><li>Learn about proven approaches and models that can be used to boost emotional and physical wellbeing and thereby strengthen resilience</li><li>Break unhealthy habits</li><li>Support others to stay well - at home and at work</li><li>Be inspired to create a wellness action plan and put some of these techniques into practice</li></ul><section>

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.

Programme Overview
Create individual success with a situational approach to leadership.
With business moving at a blistering pace, there’s more pressure than ever for leaders to be effective at managing successful teams. But often, they don’t have the skills to be the agile, adaptive leaders they need to be, and they struggle to build meaningful connections and achieve results.

It’s not for lack of effort or interest. Research has shown that most leaders are limited to a single leadership style—so they don’t know how to unleash the potential of their people as their needs shift.
Leaders need to learn how to lead situationally. Blanchard’s SLII® empowers leaders to become adaptive—a requirement for our uncertain times. Backed by 40 years of research and an unmatched track record of results, The SLII Experience™ teaches your leaders how to lead situationally by giving their people the right support and direction at the right time.
SLII enables leaders to build deeper relationships with their people, making every day more inspiring, motivating, and meaningful.

Discernment Formation for Course Leaders
with Rachel Overton and Nick Helm
This programme aims to enable course leaders to develop or sharpen up discernment processes within formation programmes for spiritual directors from all traditions. 
A previous participant says:
'This programme really helped me to find a language with which to fully understand discernment processes for myself and for my facilitating the development of others.’ 
Discernment is not something that we ‘do’ at certain moments of decision in life. Rather it is the stance we should assume in every aspect of life and can be articulated in the question ‘how am I centred and responsive to God?’
As course leaders and people responsible for the formation of spiritual directors, we need to be aware of our own discernment processes if we are to enable others to grow in their ability to discern well. Such awareness also enables us to offer congruence between the formation programme we are a part of, the nature of spiritual accompaniment and being faithful to God in life. 
Over the course of the four day sessions, we will enable participants to engage with questions such as: 
What do you pay attention to within your own experience?
Why do you pay attention to that?
How do you respond to what you notice?
What choices do you make?
How does all of this apply to you personally, your role as a spiritual director and your role in the formation of spiritual directors.
 These will be explored in relation to the ‘triangle model’ of relationships within spiritual direction – a model which helps to sharpen awareness of the multiple aspects of discernment that we need to pay attention to.
The programme will be experiential, involving small group work as well as plenary sessions. Participants will also be expected to take time to reflect and continue to work with their own process in between sessions.
By the end of the programme, participants can expect to:
be more aware of their own process and language of discernment
have greater awareness of how discernment is lived in spiritual direction and spiritual direction formation
be more secure in their role as a trainer enabling discerning processes
have clarity about ways in which this discerning stance can be developed in the course they are involved in
All sessions will run on Zoom from 9.45am to 4.15pm
Previous participants share their responses to this programme: 
‘A safe space to open your heart to the unexpected.’
‘It opens up the process of discerning far better than reading it in a book.'
‘[It] may well change your perception of what discernment is all about and, with practice, it will change the way you live and pray. I would thoroughly recommend this learning process and experience.’
‘Approach with an attentive, open heart, recognising the potential to go deeper through exploring discernment by journeying both as individual and with others.’
‘A very in-depth programme that really gets to the heart of discernment. Don’t miss it - it can change your life!!’
‘It wasn't until I experienced this programme with Nick and Rachel that it became obvious how vital this clarification of, and approach to discernment is, and would whole-heartedly recommend this empowering course to the most seasoned of trainers as well as those just starting out.’
