BOXING DAY LEFTOVERS..........seem like only a blink of an eye ago! This year is hurtling along at a mad pace, but as we wrap up another busy week it's apparent that it's a) already been filled with highlights and b) promises to be a cracker (no Christmas pun intended!). For this week I'd say my highlight has been finalising - with the rest of the judges - The Forum's Award winners for April's event in Manchester. Without wanting to incur the wrath of Chris, Ian, Phil, Dave, Penny, Alison and the rest of the team I'm staying quiet about what the category was and who the nominees were! 😉 What I will say is that I've been blown away by the innovation, honesty, bravery, leadership and curiosity of all the nominees. Saying that working in the Contact Centre / BPO industry as an 'industry of choice' can come across a bit twee (cutesy to my North American friends!), but being asked to be a judge and to go through this process shows that we work in an amazing industry filled with superstars! I've been involved with the Forum since the mid-2000s, first as a 'punter' and then when I moved into tech consulting as a vendor / partner. To say that it's an organisation close to my heart is an understatement. So when I joined Centrical in 2021 one of my first priorities was for us to get involved with them! Fast forward 2(ish) years and I'm judging industry heroes and the inspiring work they do day-in day-out! Really looking forward to seeing all of the nominees, winners and their amazing stories in April. We sat through approx 20 submission calls and there wasn't one call where a judge didn't say "I'm nicking that nugget" or "We could use that in our business" which shows that each nomination was very strong! It's been an honour and a privilege to be involved in this year's judging and at times emotional...... #contactcentre #contactcentres #futureofwork #aiforgood #people #employeeexperience #industrystandards

Sport and business always have so much in common. I am NOT ready to accept the end of this era of tennis legends. What I’ve learned from a life time of playing badly, watching live and yelling at my tv screen: 1. Disappointment is temporary, progress is permanent. Rebound, refocus, retry. 2. Score doesn't define worth. Learn from mistakes, try again stronger. 3. Even when you don’t get the result you wanted, the effort was never wasted. Apply lessons, improve, and ace it next time. 4. Everyone needs coaches in their corner encouraging self-reflection and giving unconditional support. Thank you Rafa! https://lnkd.in/geR47KmP

"Anyone can win once, champions win twice." "Your worst has to be better than everyone else's best." "Our coach was our 5th team member, he was vital to keeping our feet on the ground." Just some of the wisdom shared by James Cracknell MPhil OBE Team GB rower & double Olympic gold medalist, at the Recruitment Agency Expo today where he talked about "Pushing Beyond Limits". Do you want to win twice? Who is helping keep your feet on the ground? Need some help? DM me for more info on how I can support you to be your best in life, health and work. #recexpo #recruitment

The All Blacks wouldn’t show up to the Bledsloe Cup without having undergone intense preparation and training. They know there’s no growth in practicing in a safe environment, thats why they engage the world’s best trainers and coaches to push them, challenge them, and create rigorous, real-world scenarios that develop and train them for success. We’ve spent the last eight weeks refining our investor pitch for a presentation that’s set to catapult us into the market. It feels like I've been preparing for my very own Bledisloe cup…. our Investor pitch! I need to work on my "match fitness" (aka; my presentation skills), which means I need step out of my comfort zone and ask for #help, here goes.... I’m on the hunt for seasoned investors - not for investment, in fact, I personally guarantee I won’t ask for a cent!! What I really need are investors with frontline pitch experience, the critiques and insights that will shape my skills… I do not want to turn up to the big match half prepared! Practicing in a safe zone with people who already know our innovation and trajectory just doesn’t cut it. I need feedback from investors who’ve sat across the table from founders, that have that positively critical eye for improvement, and who understand the nuances of a game-changing pitch. If this sounds like you, #letsconnect, and I’ll put our presentation to your test. Your insights and feedback could be the edge we need to be victorious in our own upcoming test match. Sound like fun? Let’s connect. *Note: All replies and responses will remain confidential, and the online presentation will be subject to an NDA.* #RealEstateInnovation #PropTech #InvestorsFeedback #GamePlan #PresentationPrep #practice #timeforchange #yelsaconnect Champak Mehta, MInstD Mark Collins Robert Ryan Chu
