Some of our underpinning thinking

5/30/2015

 
One of the key bits of thinking that underpins Mindgap's approach to 'unlocking potential' is explained here by one of my favourite lecturers when I was at Cranfield University, Prof. Cliff Bowman. It's only 3mins long but well worth it!

Growing leadership

5/24/2015

 
I'm a 1/3 of the way through some really exciting training that I'm running on behalf of the Marches Local Enterprise Partnership. The training is taking the form of 10 sessions held across Herefordshire, Shropshire and Telford and Wrekin. Participants are mainly leaders of Charities and Private Sectors with some Local Authority colleagues too.

There is some fascinating issues emerging about how some of these leaders are working flat out to respond to some of the massive impacts on their sector. There's been a number of Community Interest Companies there which has been interesting to see the perspective they bring too.

The focus of the training is to get the voluntary and private sector working on how they might be able to form a consortia to be able to access European and Lottery funding through the Building Better Opportunities fund.

On top of all of that, it's a great opportunity to  build relationships with about 70 Charities in the region!

Hope for Hope!

Just had a great 3 hour session with the Board (and some senior staff) at HOPE Family centre in Bromyard. HOPE are based in Bromyard and provide such a stunning service to some of the most needy families around. They are 1 of the 3 Charities I am looking at doing some pro bono work for.

My time with the Board was focussed around how the world is changing for them (PEST type stuff) and the gap that has emerged between what they have done and need to do. The need to transition to becoming more commercial was at the heart of our sessions.

Calm before the storm

Portugal
Sorry for the lack of posts of late.  What with a sneaky holiday to Portugal (as a post leaving work break) and then coming straight back to prep. for the upcoming training mentioned below. There's not been a lot of time!

It also meant there were times of the holiday where my thoughts strayed to work a little but what a place for them to stray!!! #imnotcomplaining
