Rules for effective meetings - seriously....stop wasting timeEric Tachibana
Whether you are in an industry led by multi-national firms that require many specialized knowledge workers doing related and dependent tasks to work together to create synergistic value, or if you are a fast-moving, hip start-up, it is necessary for us to have a lot of meetings.
In an average week, I probably spend at least 40% of my time working with between 3-10 people at once, and usually across locations. I am sure you are the same.
As such, having excellent meeting skills can make a huge difference in how well you deliver in your role and we deliver as a firm.

Does Your Start up Need A Friend?
When I started my business (35 years ago) I had a business partner. We didn’t have any clear agreements between us about who was doing what, or how we saw the business making money, or what it would take to do that.
Within a year, we were arguing all the time and eventually we went our separate ways. It took a lot of time, negotiating, heartbreak – not to mention legal fees to sort it all out...

A Brief review of why everyone needs a written financial plan, one that has been updated within the last 12 months and the 11 mistakes that you do not want to make in your financial plan.
5 whys and unlocking existential answers to critical questions. Getting stuck happens to everyone. It is getting unstuck that sets those that succeed apart from those that don't. In the world of business the most significant transition is the ultimate transition... business exit. Yet, according to experts like PwC, Deloitte, HBR, the high rate of business exit failure (≥70%) in the low to mid market has to do with owners getting stuck. It doesn't have to be that way. Here is one tool that can help to unstick a tough situation.
Insight into one\'s own style of communication is difficult to achieve however, knowing this can highlight why some problems occur more with us than with others. Do you find that you end up following the plans of others? Or do you find that others resist your plans? This is a sample of assertiveness and self-esteem development for managers and leaders.

An Intro to the Financial Services IndustryEric Tachibana
The Financial Service Industry is one of the most attractive industries to target if you are a consultant. However, when selling into, or delivering for, Financial Services Institutions (FSIs), it is useful to have some understanding of how FSI business models work, and the unique requirements that drive their IT strategies.This deck is a living document that hopes to act as a primer for consultants who need to support FSI clients, but who may not have prior experience in the sector.

Rethinking Annual Performance as WorkshopsEric Tachibana
Each year millions of line managers do performance reviews with each member of their team. Reviews are tricky, risky, and difficult to run as structured conversations, which is how they have always been run. This deck proposes that managers replace conversations with workshops, which are easier to run, generate more insights, and less likely to cause bad feelings as focus turns from attack-defend to collaborative problem solving.
This deck hopes to help workshop facilitators up their game. It argues that presentations are less effective than workshops as a means of teaching adults and gives some ideas of how to convert presentations into workshops

10. Whatever the case, it is almost
always emotional, irrational, and
painful
11. That’s why you should always
prepare a “prenup” for the worst,
when things are the best
12. All founder teams should have a
heart-to-heart and produce a
signed founders contract at the
outset of any venture
13. Here are 10 things that you should
discuss and agree upon before
signing
14. 0 1 SHAREHOLDING
How will we divvy up equity, assign
vesting rights, and why? Be
quantitative here. It needs to make
sense. Don’t just split it equally among
friends. You are acting on behalf of the
firm’s best interest here.
15. 0T I2ME AND PRIORITIES
How much time will each of us
explicitly commit to during years 1,
2, & 3?
What are known, acceptable other
priorities (and how will we agree to
schedule them)?
16. 0D E3LIVERABLES
What are our shared goals for the
company?
What are each of our SMART
milestones and deliverables (as
defined in a job description)? What
if one of us does not deliver?
17. 0L O4ANS & CASH INJECTION
How much $ will each of us put in?
What if we need a cash injection
from founders mid-stream? Who
pays what, how will we determine
valuation, and what happens if one
of us can’t pay?
18. 0S A5LARY
How much will everyone be paid?
What happens if we need to adjust
up or down?
19. 0R E6TIREMENT
What if one of us has an accident, wants to
leave or relocate? Needs to take another job
to survive? What if that other job is
competitive? What if it turns out that we hate
each other?
What is expected in terms of leaving? How do
we deal with shareholder loans & shares?
20. 0T IE7 BRAKING
What if we disagree on strategy or
tactics? How do we make a final
decision?
21. 0R E8ALITY CHECK
What are each of our known
strengths and weaknesses? What
are we each not prepared to do?
22. 0E X9ITS
What type of exits are we OK with?
How will we deal with the sale of
shares (see standard shareholder
agreement terms like tag-alongs,
drag-alongs, right of first refusal,
etc)?
28. But know that if you cannot
candidly discuss these
hypotheticals and agree upon
resolutions when things are good,
then something smells fishy!
