Regus Business Confidence Index - Issue 5 - October 2011Regus
This edition finds that job opportunity knocks despite a confidence dip.
More Regus research: http://www.regus.co.uk/corporate-workspace-solutions/resources/whitepapers.aspx?utm_campaign=slideshare
In order to provide business leaders and companies with a up-to-the-minute
barometer of their peers’ confidence and outlook for the coming year the Regus
Business Confidence Index Report analysed the opinions of over 16,000 business
managers and business owners from 86 countries. In addition to enquiring about
revenues and profits over the past year, and about their revenue expectations for
the next 12 months, the report also analysed their views on factors that had caused
particular corporate distress during the downturn, stability creating policies for future
growth and cost saving measures that do not hinder company growth.
The latest Regus Business Confidence Index shows that global business confidence remains steady; mature economies are showing confidence gains; and emerging economies have tempered their outlook somewhat. But no-one in business is letting a confidence uplift divert them from a continued focus on efficiency gains.
Companies all over the world come to Regus to find the flexible workspace that enables them to do business more effectively. We have over 800,000 customers using our business centres every day, this gives us a wealth of experience in all workplace issues.

Why place still matters in the digital age: Third place working in easy reach...Regus
A new independent research report from ZZA Responsive User Environments has scotched the myth that flexible working means home-working. The report, which was supported by Regus, the world’s largest provider of flexible workspace, combines data from a global 17,000-strong business survey with in-depth qualitative interviews with business people across the world, and demonstrates that working in ‘third places’ – neither office nor home – is the new normal. These ‘third places’ encompass business centres, clubs, libraries and informal areas such as coffee shops. Moreover, the report also reveals that ‘third place’ working brings a wide range of benefits, including improved work-life balance, reduced stress and improved productivity for the employee, as well as cost-effectiveness, scalability and reduced property commitment for businesses.
Authored by Professor Ziona Strelitz, the report notes that, “Today’s dynamic technological, economic and social conditions create opportunities for individuals and pose new challenges for organisations. Attracting and harnessing talent is a central challenge for business. Third place working that enhances the quality of work life supports this agenda.”
Working Mothers Report: Keeping mum in the workplaceRegus
The participation of women in the workforce is widely attested to be a key driver of GDP growth. In developing countries, working women can actually make the difference required to lift a region out of poverty. Women also play a vital role in sustained economic growth and are helping bridge the skills gap where this issue is holding back economic development. How, then, can more women be encouraged to return to the workforce after maternity?

How can your business help new moms get back into work?Regus
A survey of over 24,000 businesspeople found that 57% believe companies would be more productive if they hired more women returning to work after maternity leave. The top factors identified to help women get back into the workforce were flexible working hours, the option to work near home or creche facilities, and the ability to video conference instead of travel. Flexible working arrangements are seen as key to enabling women to return to work after childbirth.

The Regus Work:life Balance Index 2013 showed that the rate of improvement in work-life balance has slowed marginally since last year. Generations X and Y reported better work-life balance and greater achievement at work compared to Baby Boomers, who are struggling with health and family issues. While most countries saw declines in their index scores, Canada saw the largest increase. The myth that business owners have worse work-life balance was also debunked, as owners reported better balance than employees.

The Regus Work-Life Balance Index, which surveys over 16,000 professionals in more than 80 countries, has registered 24% rise between 2010 and 2012. This is a positive indication that now even more workers globally believe that conditions are improving and that measures are being taken to help them successfully manage to balance their personal and their work time.
The Regus Index calibrates work-life harmony by combining a number of different factors, both ‘soft’ indicators such as feelings of enjoyment, sense of achievement and satisfaction with the amount of time spent at home, and ‘hard’ factors such as working hours and additional duties in order to monitor real improvements in the lives of professionals all over the globe. In 2012, some 61% of business people globally feel that their work-life balance has improved since 2010. Although a positive majority, this figure still has considerable room for improvement as the decade advances.

Schlegel emerged and has remained a major guiding force—a top ranked Globalization Executive and Author with a penchant for unraveling the complexities of global expansion.
The applicant left a stable job at a corporation where they had worked for 3 years to start their own wedding business. They created a small company and website to help brides during one of the most exciting times of their life. Currently, the applicant is taking a great risk by building this new business with only friends and family providing assistance. They started the business to realize their knowledge and skills, but acknowledge that every business is full of risks that can be minimized by studying laws and processes, which is why they chose to attend business school.
This document discusses how to position yourself for success in the new entrepreneurial economy. It notes that full-time job creation is slow to recover, companies value flexibility over loyalty, and workers want flexibility. This has led to a rise in freelancing and 1099 contract work. The growth of technology, globalization, and support networks make now a good time for entrepreneurship. Networking, developing expertise, and online branding are keys to building an entrepreneurial personal brand. Success requires finding your niche and becoming an expert in order to showcase yourself through speaking, networking, and digital platforms like LinkedIn and SlideShare.

The document discusses how personal branding has become essential for career and entrepreneurial success as traditional job search methods are no longer effective, outlining how students can build their personal brand through social media platforms like LinkedIn, Facebook, and blogs to access the "hidden job market" and differentiate themselves from other applicants.

The document summarizes the author's first 100 days at their first job out of business school working as an investment banking M&A analyst at JPMorgan in New York City. Some of the key responsibilities included providing financial advisory services and creating financial models for valuation analysis. The biggest lessons learned were that great leaders welcome criticism and feedback rather than only wanting to hear agreement. The worst mistake made was overestimating the importance of quantitative analysis over qualitative factors in decision making. Work-life balance was challenging with 80-85 hour work weeks but was managed by making Fridays for exploring New York and spending time with friends.
The document discusses leadership development. It defines leadership as roles and processes that allow people to work together towards a common good. Leadership development involves developing these roles and processes. Key skills for leadership development include influence, change management, communication, and team development.

Public Speaking Tips to Help You Be A Strong Leader.pdfPinta Partners
In the realm of effective leadership, a multitude of skills come into play, but one stands out as both crucial and challenging: public speaking.
Public speaking transcends mere eloquence; it serves as the medium through which leaders articulate their vision, inspire action, and foster engagement. For leaders, refining public speaking skills is essential, elevating their ability to influence, persuade, and lead with resolute conviction.
