Helping Organisations Thrive with Julian Roberts

Laura Siddall | What parallels are there between sport and business, and what can we learn from them?

What parallels are there between sport and business, and what can we learn from them?
Laura Siddall returns to Helping Organisations Thrive to discuss what parallels she has experienced throughout her life in both corporate positions and now as a professional athlete. Laura highlights how there is a focus on rest, recovery, sleep and nutrition in sport, as these are factors widely known to sustainably improve performance. Although these “tools" have the potential to be highly transferable in enhancing performance in a corporate setting, prioritisation of these aspects is limited. Laura goes on to discuss various other parallels she has found, and what we can learn from them, from receiving feedback on a regular basis, to ensuring a common goal resonates throughout a team.

Dave Crysler | How can leaders create a culture of continuous improvement?

How can leaders create a culture of continuous improvement?
Dave Crysler, principal consultant of the Crysler Club, discusses what continuous improvement is, the importance of it, and how leaders can create it within their company culture.
Dave shares how the value that continuous improvement adds to companies is vast, however, companies must constantly acknowledge this value and tackle operational inefficiencies continually, and not just when sales, for example, start to slow. Creating a culture of continuous improvement will make people feel valued and listened to, thus resulting in improved performance.
Dave goes on to highlight some strategies that leaders can implement into their everyday routines that will encourage a culture of continuous improvement, including insights on how to “operate with excellence”.

John Clark | Lessons learnt about resilience throughout his 48-day marathon challenge

48 marathons, in 48 days, in 48 of England’s counties. John Clark, also two times winner of Britain’s Natural Strongest Man, shares the lessons he has learned about resilience throughout his 48-day marathon challenge.
John highlights how resilience is not always just about having a “get up and go” attitude but also about learning, and recognising the things that are controllable, and the things that are not. 
Facing many obstacles throughout the 48 marathons, including injuries, fainting, fatigue, and moments of doubt, John emphasises how easy and justifiable it would have been to give up and stop. However, his resilient mindset urged him to find a strategy to prevent these challenges from occurring again, rather than finding a reason to stop. By focusing on only trying to control the controllable, John truly demonstrates what resilience is.

Rabbi Dr. Daniel Friedman | How relevant are leadership principles from ancient texts to business leaders today?

How relevant are leadership principles from ancient texts to business leaders today?
Rabbi Dr Daniel Friedman, the founder of The Center for Torah Values, strives to make Torah meaningful, relevant, and inspirational to everyday life. Daniel explains how the core leadership principles that are explored in ancient texts are still completely relevant in leadership today but can be re-packaged to suit our current fast-moving business era.
Daniel highlights how ancient texts demonstrate resilience, self-awareness, and recognition of personal strengths and weaknesses as vital values to leadership. Therefore, with the inevitable mirroring of past events or ideas in our world today, it is essential that we continue to apply the values emphasised in these texts, to business leadership today.

Aaron Phipps MBE | Just Do It: Lessons on Overcoming Adversity and Seizing Opportunities

Be inspired to “just do it” by Aaron Phipps, gold medal-winning Paralympian, who lives his life by this motto.
At the age of 15, Aaron’s life completely changed as he fell life-threateningly ill with meningitis. Having been given another opportunity to live life, Aaron now takes it in his stride to grasp all opportunities thrown at him and see where they lead him.
Saying “yes” and “just do it” led Aaron to the Paralympic rugby team and to the top of Mount Kilimanjaro where he astonishingly crawled on his hands and knees for 4 days to reach the top. Aaron is a true inspiration in overcoming adversity and an advocate for seizing opportunities.

Gen Z, the “on-demand generation”: how do we manage them in the workplace?
Rebecca Clayton, director of R Human Resources explains who Gen Z are, and how their reputation in the workplace is often portrayed very negatively. In 10 years, a third of the workforce will be made up of Gen Z, so Rebecca shares how important it is that we begin to reflect on this generation's qualities, expectations, and values. Understanding how to embrace Gen Z will help them flourish and thrive as a generation and the wider organisation.
