How can you balance risk management with driving results?
There is a well known story about Richard Branson when he talks about evaluating new ventures. The first comment is that new business opportunities come along like London buses, there is always another one round the corner so don't worry about missing out. The second one is that the better the deal looks the more his team pull it apart as there will be weaknesses in every deal and risk in every deal. When you get hooked into what looks like a no brainer, an emotionally strong deal, then your risk threat increases as you are more likely to ignore the signs as the reward is so strong.

How can you balance risk management with driving results?
One thing I have found helpful is to apply the sandbox method of start up testing when mistakes are made. This also ensures a no-blame culture which encourages employees to openly share concerns. The sandbox assumes you may have control over one or more parts of a test, so as you test and fail you iterate until you land on a more concrete control. Once that control is tested you can then use that in the mainstream though you still keep testing in the sandbox to see if you can beat / improve the control. The purpose of this in risk management is that you are in a continuous improvement loop and avoid complacency especially when the market is with you and SOP's can be stretched.

How can you balance risk management with driving results?
One of the critical factors I see with businesses who have an elevated risk threat is with their SOP's. They are either being ignored due to poor training, lack of SOP's, time and productivity issues, or pure greed. Sometimes there will be occasions where you have a situation you did not anticipate and there are no protocols in place, those who survive this will have fostered a no blame culture where employees are rewarded for spotting threats and acting on them rather than ignoring them through fear of retribution. SOP's also require monitoring and reporting, there needs be an effective feedback loop in real time either through direct communication or dashboard reporting.

How can you balance risk management with driving results?
In my experience risk falls into 3 categories: - financial - operational - reputational Risk profile fluctuates based on many factors including shareholders, stakeholders, current market conditions, competition, cash flow, opportunity, assets + people. Results also fall into short term, mid term and long term. There is a direct correlation between the timeframe of the outcome you are looking for and the amount of risk you are prepared to take. You could hire a maverick CEO for a turnaround and replace them when they have stabilised the business and made decisions others would be afraid to. Be crystal clear on the outcome then apply radical focus to executing it while always keeping a peripheral eye on what else is happening.

"So what do you actually DO at SMF Fest?" - Part II (See here for Part I: https://lnkd.in/gEEF2hT5) After refreshing the SMF Confidence Index results to get to current sentiment, we collectively analyse the results. We ask: 📌 Do we see any surprising or unexpected results with any of the fuels? Why? 📌 Why do we think Fuel X achieved such a jump in confidence from last year? 📌 Why do we think Fuel Y has gone down in confidence? 📌 Are there any wildcard factors that have emerged this year, that weren't there last year? 📌 Which of these above factors do we want to drill into with our SMF pods (each participant is assigned a pod of 4-5 folks, with representation from right across the value chain) And at the end of the Fest, each pod presents its findings, reflections and suggestions for "next steps" to the wider group. This way, everyone leaves with at least one (usually more) actionable takeaway from our time together (plus a few new maritime buddies). If this sounds like something you'd like to be a part of - something proactive and meaningful in the marine fuel space - drop me a line on [email protected]. #SMFFest #maritimeindustry #maritimeinnovation #sustainablemarinefuels #SMFCI #industryinsights #uncommonconferences #shipenergy uncommon conferences ship.energy

In this snippet from FinEx 2024, I share my own career evolution—how the realisation that success without fulfillment led me to reinvent my path. If you’re seeking a deeper alignment between your career and your passions, this might resonate with you. Through this journey, I discovered some valuable insights that shaped not only my career but my approach to leadership and life. Here are a few reflections from that experience: ⁕ The Power of Reflection: Coaching allowed me to transition from chasing external measures of success to seeking true fulfillment. It’s about aligning what you do with who you are at your core. ⁕ Leadership Insights: My own experiences with ineffective leaders reinforced the importance of developing strong, compassionate leadership. How have the leaders in your life shaped the way you lead today? ⁕ Career Reinvention: Even at the executive level, there is always room to realign your career with your deeper purpose. What would it take for you to embrace a new direction that truly reflects your strengths and passions? Watch here: https://lnkd.in/gmhXmNVT I hope my journey offers inspiration—it may very well be the catalyst for your own career transformation. #executivecoaching #leadershipdevelopment #executivepresence #careerreinvention #cfo #womeninleadership #finex

🌟 What if today was the day you decided to think 10x bigger? As we wrap up the week, let's take a moment to reflect on our journey and envision the future. Many entrepreneurs start with a dream, but only a few dare to 10x that dream. Imagine: 💥 Transforming your business to reach heights you've only imagined. 💥 Creating a self-managing team that allows you to focus on innovation. 💥 Attracting high-paying, ideal clients effortlessly. 💥 Achieving not just growth, but exponential growth. The truth is, the path to 10x growth starts with a single step: Believing it’s possible. Here’s what you can do today to kickstart your journey: ✅ Reflect on Your Wins: Take 10 minutes to journal your top 3 wins this week. Celebrate your progress. ✅ Set Bold Goals: Write down one audacious goal that excites and challenges you. ✅ Plan for Impact: Identify one high-leverage activity you can focus on next week to move closer to that goal. Remember, every great achievement begins with a single, brave decision to aim higher. I kickstarted our own 10x journey by: 1. Reading the book "10x is Easier Than 2x" 2. Realising we'd evolved from a team of virtual assistants (selling time back) into a service offering a VBM (business manager) centric team to give our clients freedom to lead. 3. Communicating this💡 to our team, and collectively going all in. Thoughts? Questions? ➰➰➰ Team Up 👭 Scale Up 📈 [email protected] https://yourva.co.nz

RAND International Evidence Review on In-Work Progression [posted, 11 October 2024] https://lnkd.in/geGJj-ZA or https://lnkd.in/gjaMxghq or Report https://lnkd.in/gxzmuRuR [full-text, 104 pages] and Executive Summary https://lnkd.in/gJeiAD4F This report presents findings from an international evidence review commissioned by the Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) to investigate policies and approaches to in-work progression in high-income countries other than the UK. The objective of the study was to present available evidence on how other countries have approached the issue of in-work progression to generate learning that might be transferable to the UK. For the purpose of this study, in-work progression was defined as ‘raising in a sustainable way, an individual's labour market earnings.' However, to reflect the fact that progression can occur in a myriad of ways, this review also looked at other outcomes, including building skills, removing practical and financial constraints to progression, and improving job security. All of these intermediary outcomes may ultimately lead to higher pay. This study was guided by 6 broad research topics that were underpinned by 14 different research questions. To answer these questions, 3 main methods were used: a targeted literature review to set out the policy context (Chapter 2), a rapid evidence assessment (REA) to identify and examine relevant policies and programmes (Chapter 3), and case studies featuring a deeper assessment of interventions identified in the review (Chapter 4). To ensure that the most current evidence was included, the rapid review was restricted to a search for results since 2014. The appendixes detail the methodology and inclusion and exclusion criteria applied in the search.
