We tend to talk a lot about diversity, recognizing how important it is. But those conversations (and most of our initiatives) revolve almost entirely around race and gender, only two components of a much larger diversity spectrum.
In this webinar we’ll take a much broader look at diversity… diversity of opinion, skill, experience, and more. We’ll talk about the role this kind of diversity has in organizational health and market success. We’ll talk about what you can do to encourage, architect, and accommodate diversity. We’ll also talk about biases, the most common cause of diversification difficulties.
Because our organizations need us to begin to think more holistically, to drive toward larger outcomes, and to help insulate ourselves against risk. Join this webinar and come away with a new perspective on diversity, and practical, immediate approaches to start achieving it.

The 10 rules to build a badass startup team by Alice ZaguryTheFamily

In a startup, execution is EVERYTHING.
You need the right people, and you need the right mindset.

The 21st Century Job Hunt; Plan for successGeorge Janczuk
The ‘job for life’ mantra is a relic of a bygone era, and IT professionals have always valued career progression over ‘tenure’ with jobs being stepping stones on an ever upward career journey. However, the post .COM crash and post-GFC IT world is defined by the rise in off-shoring and an ever increasing focus on driving commoditisation and efficiency in IT leaving the days when IT professionals could write their own cheques and pick-and-choose their jobs at will well and truly behind us. With IT jobs no longer being plentiful and pay scales stagnating the competition is fierce.
The outlook isn’t all bleak, with new tools and recruitment modalities enabling new opportunities; but tools are only as good as the plan – and success in your job hunt, more than ever, requires planning (and don’t throw the baby out with the bathwater – some of the old world truisms still apply!)
George focuses on how to plan for success in your job hunt. All the way from key strategies to tips, George looks at how to get ahead of the pack and achieve success. And whilst a presentation of 21st century job hunting would not be complete without coverage of LinkedIN (and yes – George spends quite some time on what is now part-and-parcel of the modern job hunt); George looks at the broader landscape and what you can do to prepare for your next move.
What knowledge you can expect to take away from this presentation:
* LinkedIN
* CVs
* Choosing the right job
* Getting an invitation to an interview
* Preparing for interviews

Today our organizations have to move faster than ever before. Getting our organizations to move fast, means the systems in our organizations have to function smoothly, without friction. And when it comes to creating value, there’s no more important system than our people systems. Because businesses don’t create value, people do.
But how do you remove friction from our people systems? How do you get our people systems to function more smoothly to produce more value. It all comes down to learning how to optimize around soft skills. If hard skills are like the cogs in the machine, then soft skills are like the oil that makes those cogs work together smoothly. If you have all of one, but none of the other, than the system will break down.
Join us in this practical webinar where we break down the difference between hard skills and soft skills. You’ll walk away with a solid understanding of not just what soft skills are, but why they’re so important today, and what’s more, a practical checklist for how to start making soft-skills optimization a part of your HR processes.
