Keeping Yourself in Mind: An ACT-informed programme for people supporting a family member with JHD We are pleased to invite you to our virtual course for parents and family carers of people living with Juvenile Huntington’s disease. The course will be run by Sarah Gunn, a clinical psychologist and researcher at the University of Leicester, and will be based on the principles of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy is a therapeutic approach which focuses on learning to manage difficult thoughts and feelings, and to live a life which feels valuable and meaningful despite the struggles we encounter. This is an opportunity to explore the difficulties that can be associated with caring for a person with JHD (for you and within the family), to identify the values that matter most to you, and for you to think about how to move towards a more rich and valued life than you may have now. This is an eight-week course running from Wednesday 7 February to Wednesday 27 March 2024. The sessions will be on a Wednesday afternoon 1-2.30pm. Here is a very brief session outline: Week 1: Introductions: To ACT, to the programme, and to each other Week 2: Impacts of Juvenile Huntington’s on the “carer”* and wider family Week 3: Psychological wellbeing when supporting a person with Juvenile Huntington’s Week 4: Coping and adjustment: Living with, not battling against Week 5: What matters to you: Finding your values Week 6: Moving forward: Taking steps to align with your values Week 7: Living a valued life alongside Huntington’s: Plans and coping strategies Week 8: Reflection and ending: What’s next? *Note: Some people don’t like this term, so here we’re using it in quote marks. During the course, we will discuss which term would be preferred by the people attending.

he role of a CFO extends beyond day-to-day financial management and plays a pivotal role in preparing a business for an exit. The role of a CFO extends beyond day-to-day financial management and plays a pivotal role in preparing a business for an exit, whether it be through a merger, acquisition, or other strategic transaction. Here are some key points to consider: Financial Due Diligence: CFOs play a crucial role in conducting financial due diligence to assess the company’s financial health and identify any potential risks or issues. This involves reviewing financial statements, accounting practices, contracts, and other financial data to ensure accuracy and transparency. Valuation and Financial Modeling: CFOs work closely with the executive team, external advisors, and investment bankers to determine the company’s valuation. They develop financial models, assess growth projections, and analyze market comparables to arrive at a fair and realistic valuation range. Financial Documentation and Reporting: CFOs ensure that financial documentation and reporting are in order, accurate, and compliant with regulatory requirements. This includes preparing financial statements, management reports, and other financial disclosures necessary for the exit process. Negotiation and Deal Structuring: CFOs collaborate with legal and executive teams to negotiate the terms of the exit transaction. They provide financial insights and expertise to structure the deal in a way that maximizes value for the company and its stakeholders. Tax Planning and Optimisation: CFOs work closely with tax advisors to develop tax-efficient strategies for the exit transaction. They assess potential tax implications, explore tax-saving opportunities, and ensure compliance with applicable tax laws and regulations. Financial Communication and Investor Relations: CFOs play a critical role in communicating the financial aspects of the exit to internal and external stakeholders. They work with investor relations teams to ensure that key messages are effectively conveyed, providing transparency and clarity throughout the exit process. https://www.fdcapital.co.uk/podcast/the-vital-role-of-cfos-in-business-exit-preparation/ Tags Online Events Things To Do Online Online Seminars Online Business Seminars #business #cfo #preparation #exit #vital

Talent Management and Succession Planning,” the podcast where we explore the critical aspects of attracting and retaining top finance talen Talent management is the lifeblood of any organisation, and finance departments are no exception. In a competitive business landscape, attracting and retaining top finance talent can make a significant difference. Highly skilled and motivated professionals drive innovation, improve financial performance, and contribute to strategic decision-making. By investing in talent management, CFOs ensure their organisations have the right people in the right roles, which is vital for sustainable growth and success. Talent management also enables CFOs to build a culture of continuous learning and development. By nurturing the skills and capabilities of finance professionals, we create an environment that fosters innovation and adaptability. This is crucial in today’s rapidly changing business landscape, where finance teams need to keep pace with evolving technologies, regulations, and industry trends. Talent management provides a foundation for building a resilient and agile finance function. Succession planning is an integral part of talent management. How do CFOs approach succession planning, particularly in finance leadership roles? Succession planning is a proactive approach to ensure a smooth transition of leadership roles. CFOs need to identify high-potential individuals within their finance teams and provide them with opportunities for growth and development. This includes mentorship, training programs, and exposure to cross-functional experiences. By preparing a pipeline of future finance leaders, CFOs can mitigate the risks associated with unexpected departures or retirements, ensuring continuity and stability in finance leadership. Additionally, succession planning should encompass diversity and inclusion. CFOs recognize the importance of building diverse finance teams that reflect the broader talent pool. By providing equal opportunities for underrepresented groups and promoting inclusivity, we foster a culture of belonging and tap into a wider range of perspectives and ideas. Diverse teams drive innovation and improve decision-making, contributing to the overall success of the organisation. How do CFOs create a talent development culture within their finance teams, and what initiatives can be implemented to foster continuous growth? CFOs can create a talent development culture by prioritizing learning and development initiatives. This includes offering ongoing training programs, supporting professional certifications, and providing access to resources that enhance technical and soft skills. CFOs should encourage finance professionals to take ownership of their own development and provide opportunities for them to stretch their capabilities. This may involve cross-functional projects, exposure to different areas of the business, or participation in industry conferences and networking events. Additionally, mentorship and coaching programs play a crucial role in talent development. CFOs can pair experienced finance leaders with up-and-coming talent, fostering knowledge transfer, and providing guidance and support. Encouraging regular feedback and performance discussions helps finance professionals understand their strengths and areas for improvement, enabling targeted development plans. By creating a culture that values continuous learning and growth, CFOs empower their finance teams to reach their full potential. https://www.fdcapital.co.uk/podcast/talent-management-and-succession-planning/ Tags Online Events Things To Do Online Online Classes Online Business Classes #leadership #development #successionplanning #employees #talentmanagement

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.

Welcome to Whine with HR! Our bi-monthly meet-up where we think about - and drink about - all things HR! Now, all of you in HR (or quite frankly, if you have ever been an employee anywhere) know that crazy things can happen in the workplace and that sometimes means you need an adult beverage to get you through. Well, we've got you covered! In Whine with HR, we start with the W-I-N-E of the week, where Trish and I test out new wines and share our thoughts. And then we move on to the W-H-I-N-E of the week, where we talk about a pressing HR topic. We change the topic each meet-up, so you never get bored (and Lord knows, there is ALWAYS something new to talk about). We back up our information with stats and research and we always offer best practices for the topic at hand. We also throw in a fun AMA episode here and there. Whine with HR used to be a podcast, but we wanted to make it more interactive and give you a chance to chime in and/or ask questions. So, grab your favorite beverage (loaded or unloaded) and join us!
