As the 39th Livery Company in the City of London, the Worshipful Company of Fletchers is one of the oldest of the City of London's 110 Livery Companies. But today very few of our members are involved in arrowmaking and so we exist to uphold the traditions of the City in ways that are appropriate to our heritage. Our Livery celebrate Fellowship, Charity and Tradition.

I have the honour of leading the Advanced Command & Staff Course (Reserve) at the Defence Academy of the United Kingdom. My three year term as Course Director is well underway and this is the second year of delivery. We are currently on the Main Residential Phase, a two week intense period of professional and personal development. The success of the course is underwritten by having an outstanding team. I feel incredibly privileged to be supported by the first International Reserve Directing Staff, Cdr Tue Lippert Royal Danish Navy. He brings a different perspective, challenges preconceptions and is an exceptional facilitator. We also have 11 members of the course representing allies across the globe. It’s a great opportunity to engage, learn and create networks which reach across #Defence. Reserves can only operate by having supportive employers so a huge thank you to The Worshipful Company of Fletchers for their engagement with the #ArmedForcesCovenant and supporting my service. Lots more to follow in the next couple of weeks.
Tilbage på Defence Academy of United Kingdom og Advanced Command & Staff Course (Reserves) - denne gang som Directing Staff - med overdragelse af våbenskjold til Colonel Debs Taylor på vegne af chefen for Arktisk Kommando, som tak for kompetenceudviklingen af kommandoens reserve. Uddannelsen og styrkelsen af vores reserve i det danske forsvar er vigtig. Krigen i Ukraine har vist at Forsvarets reserve skaber tyngde og udholdenhed og Forsvaret skal lære (genlære) at udnytte reservens potentiale efter en periode hvor dette ikke har været prioriteret. Sidste år deltog jeg på kurset som elev og det var første gang der var dansk deltagelse med på Advanced Command & Staff Course (Reserves). Dette er en værnsfælles uddannelse målrettet reservens Major/Oberstløjtnant/Orlogskaptajn/Kommandørkaptajn niveau. Kurset er obligatorisk for Britiske officerer, der skal udnævnes til Oberstløjtnant/Kommandørkaptajn niveauet og gøre tjeneste som enten chef for en enhed eller ved en stab. Det bliver afholdt i samarbejde med Kings College og Cranfield University på akademiet i Shrivenham. I år har vi en elev med fra Hæren og jeg er som første ikke brite inviteret med som Directing Staff til afviklingen af kurset. Kurset fokuserer på følgende Læringsområder: 👉 Føring, Ledelse og Etik. Udviklingen af selvbevidsthed, kritisk tænkning, effektiv kommunikation og samarbejde. 👉 Staff skills. Udviklingen af evnen til at analysere og evaluere et bredt spektrum af information og levere en præcis og sammenhængende mundtlig og skriftlig briefing til foranstående officerer. 👉 Research og kritisk tænkning. Evnen til at tilegne sig viden og forholde sig kilde kritisk til denne samt aktivt analysere argumentation og bruge kritisk tænkning. 👉 Anvendelse af det militære instrument. Her udvikles en forståelse af muti-domain, multiagency og multi-nationale operationer og deraf afledte koncepter, informationskrigsførelse og fremtidige krige. Advanced Command & Staff Course (Reserves) gennemføres fra marts til august som fjernundervisning med enkelte tilstedeværelsesmoduler. Det er en fornøjelse at være tilbage i dette fantastiske læringsmiljø blandt spændende kollegaer fra den internationale reserve. #reserven

Alderman Gregory Jones KC and David Chalk have been elected as the next Sheriffs of the City of London at Guildhall’s Common Hall today. They will take office on Friday 27 September, holding the position for one year. The office of Sheriff of the City of London, a pre-requisite for becoming Lord Mayor, is one of the oldest in existence and dates back to the Middle Ages. The Sheriffs’ modern-day duties include supporting the Lord Mayor in his or her civic duties and serving - both, at home and abroad - as ambassadors for the UK-based financial and professional services industry by promoting the UK as a place in which to do business. Based at the Old Bailey, the office is an integral part of the City’s support for the rule of law. In addition to their duties and responsibilities to assist the Lord Mayor, the Sheriffs play a key role in supporting His Majesty’s Judges at the Central Criminal Court (Old Bailey) by promoting the importance of the English rule of law to businesses, schools, diplomats, charities, the City Livery, and leading arts figures. The Central Criminal Court, where the Sheriffs work and reside during their year, is recognised as the most famous criminal court in the world and is owned and managed by the City of London Corporation. https://bit.ly/45HoVPw
