DIRECTORS MESSAGE FOR ALL EUROPE AND NON-EUROPEAN CLIENTS The last two years have been difficult for us all in many different ways. We have had to adapt to a changing world with the Global pandemic of COVID -19 and all its variants and of course for those on the European Continent, we have had to learn and adapt to the changes brought about by BREXIT. The saga of Brexit for our European clients has been a mixed bag, from quick and efficient to complex delivery issues. In short both the EU and the UK governing bodies still have outstanding issues to resolve and the import / export regulations appear to be ever-changing and presenting us all with a less than clear picture of what the rules are supposed to be. We are far from absolute clarity but it appears that an agreement reached and due to roll-out in Jan 2022 should give clarity on all sides. The COVID-Pandemic, has and continues to present staff shortages across global industries and logistic and supply chains. Large repatriation of expatriate work forces, a shift in working practices and a global shortage of workers in essential import / export services has produced a series of complex issues resulting in a slow down of financial and economic trade.

thriving artists business school

I came back to art quite late in life, after starting out as a professional dancer. I always loved the way art gave me freedom to express myself, and would get lost for hours on end with my paints. Then responsibility crept in, and so too did the opinions of others..."You can't make money from art"....."Don't make life difficult for yourself, choose a career that pays well" etc etc. I'm sure you've heard them too. Only I listened, and despite there being several career crossroads in my life I always chose the option that I thought would support me and my children, rather than the one that would light me up inside. MY PHILOSOPHY I believe that as an artist you have a gift and that you ought to share it with the world. As an artist and founder of three six-figure businesses, I have been honoured to bring the two skillsets of business and art together to equip other artists with the tools to build profitable and fulfilling businesses. If you struggle to sell your art or are afraid to take the leap as a professional artist, let me walk you through the process step-by-step, avoiding all the frustrating (and expensive!) pitfalls..

clean slate financial wellbeing services

London

Engaging, enabling and empowering vulnerable people to regain control of their financesClean Slate is a not-for-profit organisation set up to provide financial education and support to hard to reach vulnerable people – originally to those battling drug and alcohol addiction. Financial difficulties can exacerbate issues for those fighting addictions and make the recovery phase more difficult. Our service was set up to provide free, confidential face to face support to help; not only ‘wipe the slate clean’, but to educate people so that they can manage their own finances effectively, and not fall back in to the same financial problems in the future. WHO WE ARE 01_icon Financial Inclusion for All Our services have been designed to work closely with members of the community who have encountered financial difficulties due to lifestyle choices and prevent the likelihood of relapse, for example, into former drinking and substance misuse patterns, which impact on their financial position in life. Working a lot with service agencies such as Changing Lives and Crisis, as well as housing providers across the region including Derwentside Homes and Cestria, it has become apparent that much of what we offer is equally applicable to help the wider community.

If you are contemplating transitioning your organisation to Agile ways of working, then you have probably already read numerous reports and editorials on the advantages of Agile delivery and all the improvements you can expect in terms of speed of delivery, quality of outcome and most importantly, reduced costs; but have you thought about the challenges you may face along the way? When organisations begin their Agile transformation, one of their first challenges is understanding the roles necessary to support the initiative; for example, one of the most critical but often a new concept for many organisations new to Agile delivery, is the role of the ‘Scrum Master’. The most frequently asked question is "What makes the Scrum Master role different from that of a Project Manager?" The differences are important and, in our experience, understanding them is crucial to Agile success. A strong corporate culture not accustomed to the Agile mindset can also be a difficult environment in which to implement Agile methods. In some cases, the company’s culture and practices may reward non-Agile milestones while inadvertently discouraging Agile success. In other words, If the correct framework for the new delivery concept is not in place, Agile adoption can be extremely difficult. When a company maintains a non-Agile framework and then tries to shoe-horn in Agile practices, they often end up accomplishing less at greater cost while also achieving lower quality results which, ultimately leads them to somehow conclude that, it is Agile that does not work. Agile training workshops We combine powerpoint presentations, business cases and discussions to create an effective learning experience; an optional online assessment on conclusion of the workshops assess the level of Agile knowledge transfer. Take a look at our Agile training workshop services for course features. Agile coaching Our professional and highly motivated Agile coaches will be responsible for creating and improving Agile processes within your team or organisation by spreading industry best practices between different teams, integrate Agile teams with non-Agile practices and measure the results of the transition. Business change and process automation The COVID-19 pandemic refocussed businesses on resilience, for many that resulted in an acceleration of the business process automation agenda. Automation combined with contextual intelligence can provide a route to greater agility, reduced risk, a better delivery experience and stronger growth. Working closely with your teams, we can map you existing processes using UML diagrams enabling us to identify process gaps, inefficient or repetitious tasks. Once the process optimisations have been agreed, we can proceed to automation with bespoke interfaces and system workflows enabling your teams to focus more easily on the business of generating growth. We are also fully versed with the UK central government/public sector GDS Digital by Default Service Design Standards, G-Cloud and DOS framework procurement processes.

cheryl hawkins

Leicester

Great and necessary course for anyone working with young people. Cheryl is an excellent instructor. Thank you! Excellent use of personal stories to help use as examples to explain the different types of mental health. Cheryl was patient and supportive with technical glitches. Useful having her phone number to text. Cheryl was knowledgeable and gave us confidence in our approach to a young person in crisis in the way we can try to help and support them. The course was informative, and I found the individual learning actives and tasks accompanied with the teaching worked extremely well. The videos provided were engaging and remained focussed on the topic. I particularly felt Cheryl dealt with some of the topics that were difficult, with a high level of sensitivity and care. There was briefing prior to some of the topics. I would have possibly liked a debrief however I believed the course was excellent and I feel it will be so important for my organisation in supporting with our service users. It has now prompted me to continue further learning around mental health and building on what I have learnt from the course. Thanks to Cheryl again for her delivery of the course and demonstrating her passion. Really enjoyable and engaging course...really useful for me going forward The course is very good at highlighting all the different aspects of mental health. it doesn't just talk about depression but all the other areas that affect young people. The videos were very good and engaging. Especially the personal testimonies. The website is very well presented and the lessons run very well on this platform. Thanks so much, Cheryl. This has been invaluable Really useful thank you. Even late on a Thursday evening it has been very accessible, informative and great to network with fellow carers too Fantastic course - really interesting and it is great to be able to access it from home. Really enjoyed the break out rooms and being able to discuss aspects of the course. It is very thought provoking and helped me to look at support for mental health from a new perspective Excellent! Cheryl was a brilliant instructor during the course and I felt re-assured and supported by her. The online sessions were very informative and teamwork was really nicely encouraged by Cheryl. The content of the course is extremely valuable and the book will be a very helpful resource for me on a longer term. I'm confident that I will be able to use my knowledge to support my own child and other young people in the future. Thank you so much Cheryl!
