Delivered at ELN's Finance Leaders Event on Thursday 10th November 2022. "Almost every organisation collates and presents an annual budget. This ‘all hands on deck’ exercise is a significant draw on resources in the finance team and beyond, and, due to the governance processes involved, is often out of date by the time it’s finally approved, meaning the work has to start all over again. This talk will briefly cover some ideas on how to make the budget and forecasting process more directly linked to the organisation’s strategy, streamline its preparation, increase buy-in from within the organisation, and ultimately increase its usefulness to organisational decision making."

Delivered at the Executive Leaders Network and Workplace X HR Leaders Event on Thursday 10th November 2022. "What’s causing the “Great Resignation”? Studies show that toxic work culture is a primary driver when it comes to employee attrition—and, let’s face it, culture comes from the top. It’s time for leadership to take a hard look at the culture they’re creating and ask themselves if it’s a healthy space where workers feel ted, listened to and empowered to share feedback about their workplace satisfaction. At this session we will explore the truth about EVP and share our 5 step conversation model that will ensure your Leaders can navigate 'The Great Resignation.'"

Executive Leaders Network

Presented at Executive Leaders Network CMO/DPO/CIO/CISO Event on October 06th. "The people element is probably one of the most important factors in ensuring the security of any information system security. Many cyber security incidents can be mitigated if employees in companies are aware of the threats cyber incidents could bring to the company and what needs to be done to prevent them. This is true in most cases however we are also forgetting something important and essential. Ask most cyber security professionals what is the weakest link in the cyber security chain and they would tell you it is the people, the problem. I agree to some extent however in this talk, I am going to discuss why we think that the approach we are taking to make this weak link stronger does not work for personal users. I will be discussing not only the human element threat in companies and organizations but also for all end users when we use our personal devices at home and its essence now that many companies are employing hybrid working environments and work from home or bring your own device. Spam, identity theft and other types of attacks are happening on a regular basis and billions of pounds are lost in this process. How do we ensure that everyone can use their personal devices safely. I will talk about how we can maintain inclusivity and openness of the Internet while keeping it secure for all of us. I will show what are the things that can be done better."

Presented at Executive Leaders Network CMO/DPO/CIO/CISO Event on October 06th. ""Being Customer-Centric requires a deep transition in a company structure and mindset. The board and the managers are responsible for driving these changes, informing and sharing with the employees. Customer-Centric strategies focus on listening to the customers, dialoguing with them and grabbing info to develop the product and the strategy. It’s a never-ending cycle and involves all the company, from product development to the sales cycle. Once aligned, it provides the highest customer satisfaction and eventually the best retention. This panel shares two generations of marketers' experience, including how customer journey mapping changed over the years."

Presented at Executive Leaders Network CMO/DPO/CIO/CISO Event on October 06th. ""It’s already been four and a half years from that famous date in May 2018 – in this session, Alan Cooke, Senior Privacy Consultant at DataGuard, talks about learnings and assesses the status quo. A downstream benefit of GDPR coming into effect was surely to enhance data protection for the individual - the people behind the data if you like - making knowledge, help, guidance and most importantly control about their personal data more accessible. How much has this objective been realised? And how much have data protection professionals helped with moving businesses and industries forward to create more transparency, control and accessibility around the use of personal data since May 2018? This session is an accessibility pulse check for all things privacy, like data privacy on websites, subject access requests, consents for communication and working with authorities. Where do we stand after over 4 years of GDPR? Key Takeaways: • Thoughts about how well GDPR has improved accessibility, transparency, and control over personal data for the individual • Is GDPR more accessible for the individual, or does it even need to be? • Is there a role for data protection professionals in helping GDPR reach the masses? • What’s next?"
