 Selection interviews of one kind or another are a fact of life – whatever the nature of the contract you seek.
In this difficult climate, focus and flexibility are essential. Whilst you may have been carefully prepared, dealing with unexpected angles and multiple agendas requires considerable skill. Of course your presentation skills have to be immaculate but the ‘chemistry’ factor can’t really be planned and the different agendas of others involved in the process can’t be predicted. This workshop will address preparation – both mental and physical – and techniques to maintain balance and self-control so that you can:
-
Make a strong impression
-
Read the interviewers and build the relationship
-
Listen sensitively and accurately to the needs
-
Handle difficult situations without ‘losing it’
-
Keep focus and ensure your objectives are met
-
Hold the authority of your expertise
The workshop will be practical and participative and you will leave it better-equipped.

 Gower is recognised as one of the world's leading publishers of specialist business and management books and resources. Our publishing programme covers many of the main business processes and functions and we are continuously developing new titles. Founded in 1967 Gower is an independent, global publisher.
 Blogging and other types of social media such as wikis and social networking sites have transformed the way we use the internet in recent years. It is a transformation that business is eager to exploit. In order to do so, a clear commercial strategy needs to be established; does your organization wish to use the media actively as a business tool, or do you need to respond to the use of social media by others? Blogging and Other Social Media will address this question with practical guidance on using social media as well as the risks associated with it.
A collaboration by leading thinkers and business users of social media, the book contains detailed and practical advice on the various forms of social media - their applications, advantages and disadvantages, how these technologies are evolving, and whether or not their use will benefit your business. The section covering social media and the law explains the risks and remedies related to abuse of copyright, defamation, privacy, data protection and user contracts as well as the opportunities and threats for online reputation.
If you are looking to encourage your employees but want to protect your business from the threats this emerging media presents, get a copy of this practical guide and study it before you start including social media as part of your corporate marketing or communications strategy.

FREE RESEARCH INTO FINANCIAL SERVICES LEADERSHIP
Leading specialist marketing consultancy and Finance Group partner, Strand Financial, together with business coaching practice, Harvey Coaching, surveyed a random sample of 102 financial services professionals. The findings indicate that for the industry to recover, Boards have to, finally, uphold the maxim that the ‘Customer Is King’.
The findings asked for views on a range of issues relating to leadership, governance and strategy within financial services firms in the UK. The results display some alarming perceptions from within the industry:
- 29% believe good governance is only adopted where there is no impact on profits
- 38% cite an emphasis in looking after new customers, as opposed to existing ones
- 51% perceive Boards as delegating the leading of firms’ brand values to middle management
- 53% assert that firms put profit ahead of customer interests
- 35% consider there is a large risk that objectives such as profit, income and growth are set to the detriment of customers
- 38% maintain that financial services firms are largely undifferentiated.
Members can obtain a free copy of the findings by emailing mike.symes@strandfinancial.com or chris@harveycoaching.com |
