Change is the only constant. I love what we do at Hult EF Corporate Education because we're not just there to help people adapt to and navigate change, we're there to empower people to be change-makers. Here's a glimpse of what it means for my fellow Hult EFers and for our partners and clients. #HultEF #CorporateEducation #changemakers

This is part of the “why” of what we do. True change starts from the inside.

Two weeks have flown by since the UCISA Leadership Conference in Edinburgh, and the energy from the event is still palpable. I had the privilege of not only attending but also representing Hays alongside Amanda Whicher as a speaker in one of the key sessions of the day. The array of speakers across the day was fantastic - each bringing a unique perspective, enriching our understanding and fuelling our imaginations. A personal highlight of the day? It has to be DreamWorks Animation’s session on ‘The Art of the Possible’. The discussion on data’s role in storytelling was highly thought-provoking, and with an added bonus of a sneak peek of the new Kung Fu Panda! The conference was absolutely buzzing with conversations around scaling digital transformation across Higher Education and it’s clear we’re all on the same page: to shape the future, we must embrace new strategies in hiring and nurturing talent. The shared challenges we face in attracting talent are not just hurdles but opportunities to come together, share our experiences, and forge new paths. The launch of the UCISA Academy is a bold step in that direction, promising to harness the collective wisdom of UCISA, UHR: Universities Human Resources, and Hays to meet the challenges head-on. As I look forward to the follow-up conversations and the budding partnerships, I’m reminded of the power of community. Together, we’re not just building teams; we’re shaping the future of education. #UCISALeadershipConference #DigitalTransformation #HigherEducation #TalentManagement #UCISAAcademy #Community #FutureOfEducation

A year has passed since I was humbled to receive the prestigious Rooke Award in 2022 from the Royal Academy of Engineering. I never thought I'd get an award like this. Promoting diversity and inclusion within the engineering and technology sectors hasn't been about accolades for me. It's been about making tangible changes and driving a culture shift where everyone, irrespective of their background, feels valued and included. For those looking to embed such change within their teams, here are five key insights I've gleaned over the years: 1. Understanding the diverse needs of a team not only boosts morale but enhances productivity. 2. Navigating the tightrope between demands and team welfare is a challenge, but fostering an inclusive environment eases the balance. 3. At EqualEngineers, our initiatives aim to bridge the gap between the logical, straightforward mindset and a culture that thrives on innovation and collaboration. 4. The future of engineering isn't solely about emerging tech trends but building teams that reflect the diverse world we live in. 5. Continuous learning and embracing soft skills are pivotal for building a successful, cohesive team. While awards shine a light on our efforts, the real impact is in the stories of transformed workplaces, inclusive practices, and professionals who feel seen and heard. I invite you to watch the accompanying video where I delve deeper into how EqualEngineers’ initiatives have shaped this journey to recognition. DM me to work together. Let's drive change in the engineering world, one initiative at a time.

Embracing a Tapestry of Memories and Dreams: Commemorating the EMDI Institute of Media and Communication's Orientation Ceremony 🌟🎓 The atmosphere buzzed with excitement as our newest cohort of students embarked on a remarkable journey into the realm of media and communication.

Exciting new chapter ahead... the countdown continues!  Reflecting on where the organisation has been is so interesting and has really helped inform where we are going as an organisation. Some more important dates that have been identified include:   2004 - the British Sports Trust transformed into Sports Leaders UK, marking a major milestone in our mission to empower young people through sport and physical activity. This transformation allowed us to focus on partnering with centres to develop specific leadership skills in young individuals through sport. By rebranding, we made our qualifications, like the Community Sports Leaders Award, even stronger, reaching more centres and learners with a clear vision and mission.    2007 - we proudly celebrated over 1,000,000 sports leaders with over 90,000 new learners taking on our qualifications every year. With this success we could have stuck with a winning formula and just continued doing what we were doing.    However, seeing the incredible benefits that leadership skills brought to our learners, we aimed to expand our impact. We introduced leadership programmes in foreign languages, maths and literacy as well as delivering funded programmes that worked directly with primary schools.    Through our Energy Club initiative, we inspired and engaged younger learners, introducing them to the world of leadership and an active lifestyle.    We've always been ambitious in finding innovative ways to support more young people. Our belief that leadership skills can transform lives and bring communities closer together has always been at the heart of our organisation.    As we approach an exciting landmark in our journey this August and embrace something new, we continue to emphasize the importance and impact of our qualifications and awards.    Only a week to go and the more I look at the journey the more our next chapter makes sense as we embark on these exciting changes. #LeadershipSkills #TransferableSkills #Education #YoungPeople
