ow would you like the folks you work with to describe you when you're not in the room?
Like it or not, we all have a brand. We're all remembered and thought of based on the impressions we leave with those we share our working world with.
That leaves each of us with a choice...do we want that brand to happen by chance, to hope for the best?
OR.
Do we want to explore our brand; define it and craft it? Do we want to get intentional about building ourselves a professional brand that is consistent and authentic.

<h2>Hybrid Working (60 Minutes)</h2><p>According to a BBC survey, 86% of the UK's biggest employers said they did not plan to bring staff back to the office full-time. A further 8% said they were keeping the idea of hybrid working under review.</p><p>Whether we love or hate working from home, the world of work has changed and to a large extent it has been proved that flexible working can work.</p><p>Balancing the collaborative benefits of working in the same physical space with the focussed time and increased life balance of working from home, hybrid working seems like the ideal option for many staff and employers.</p><p>While there are opportunities, it doesn't come without pitfalls.</p><p>This practical and focused 60-minute webinar raises awareness of the benefits of hybrid working, what goes well and things to be aware of and avoid.</p><h3>Learning objectives</h3><ul><li>Understand what hybrid working is and how it works</li><li>Articulate what successful flexible working looks like</li><li>Overcome challenging situations around hybrid working and returning to the workplace</li><li>Build strategies to communicate effectively with a hybrid team</li><li>Explain key considerations for creating and maintaining effective hybrid teams</li><li>Analyse levels of motivation and engagement and take action</li></ul><section>
                    <h3>What is hybrid working and how does it work?</h3><p>Understanding the different approaches to hybrid working. Recognising and maximising the benefits and opportunities provided by hybrid working. Balancing the needs of the organisation with the working preferences of individuals. Understanding the seven different hybrid personas and what this means for creating the best hybrid environment.</p><h3>Considering the pitfalls</h3><p>Participants explore a series of scenarios to identify common problems that come up when hybrid working, eg, missed communication, reduced team time, managing performance and diary management. In groups, participants consider how they might manage some of these situations effectively.</p><h3>Communicating and checking in with your team</h3><p>Creating a consistent way of communicating that everyone is happy with and making sure that everyone feels included and they have equal career opportunities. Is the hybrid balance working? How are levels of motivation and engagement? Check in rather than checking up with your team is key.</p><h3>Performance in hybrid</h3><p>Most people come to work to perform well and therefore showing that we trust our people to do the best they can, will reap its rewards. Being clear about what good performance looks like and managing this when people are in and out of the office. Ensuring you set expectations for hybrid working and role-model the desired behaviours. This includes ensuring that employees have a sustainable work / life balance.</p><h3>Next steps</h3><p>Participants prepare their own plan on how to maximise hybrid working approaches in their own teams / organisations.</p>

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.

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.’

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.
