Beyond the Black Stump

G'day, this is Ken Simpson and welcome to episode 37 of Beyond the Black Stump.    Do you live to work, or do you work to live? My guess is that most fit into the later group. So altruistic ideas around awareness raising and learning good, but show me the money!   My guest today is well positioned to advise on the return on investment for our personal learning and development. She runs one of the better known recruitment firms in the BC/risk field and we discuss the skills and expertise that employers are looking for.    The company she founded, BC Management, also...

Beyond the Black Stump

G’day this is Ken Simpson and welcome to an overdue episode 36 of Beyond the Black Stump. Last week I was hit by the podcaster’s nightmare scenario - sore throat and coughing. Not a good sound, so I spared you the experience. But I still wanted to share my thoughts about BC Awareness week and how we go about trying to promote the discipline. My thanks to the small number of practitioners who reached out and wanted to share views on this year's events. So Business Continuity Awareness Week has come and gone for another year, and my Awareness Challenge for the month of May has ended. The...

G'day, this is Ken Simpson and welcome to episode 35 of Beyond the Black Stump. Our May podcasts are all about awareness, not just making others aware of BC - but ensuring that we increase our awareness of other disciplines, the world around us - and how these things are changing. This week my guest is a young, female practitioner. While those two attributes alone make her rare in BC circles, she can also claim another rare attribute of being a second generation practitioner. Listen in and perhaps become more aware of the thinking and expectations of the new generation. You may become more...

G'day, this is Ken Simpson and welcome to episode 34 of Beyond the Black Stump. The podcast for the risk. Continuity and resilience communities. Links in this show I had every intention of recording live conversations at the Australasian BC Summit this week, but it wasn't to be. I actually had to miss the second day of the Conference due to client commitments. Despite only having one day at the conference I thought I got value from it. The great thing about value is that it has meaning only "in the eye of the beholder" so to speak. What value do you put on a new idea? Learning about...

G'day, this is Ken Simpson and you are listening to Episode 12 of the show.
 
An interesting conversation this week around reading, thinking and resilience. Stay tuned to the end of the show for a free give away and a new feature of the Black Stump podcast that is about to be launched.
 
This week I am chatting with a guy who came to this field after a career in the military and with a background in security management. He is ann educator and evangelist for resilience and thinking. No surprise then that he has written a book entitled "Resilient Thinking - Protecting Orgs in the 21st Century". He has established a well respected Masters program in Organisational Resilience, and is currently  Head of School Management and Professional Studies at Buckinghamshire New University in the UK.
 
Listen and learn from Phil Wood.
 
 
As I hinted during the chat with Phil, starting in November the last episode of the month will be the Black Stump Book Club. A time to focus on a single book or author, explore their thinking and talk about the book.
 
It will be a better experience if you have read the book ahead of time, and perhaps you might even have questions you would like to ask the author.
 
To mark the launch of Book Club, and to promote greater reading and reflection in the industry, Phil has made the extract of Chapter 6 of his book available to listeners. It is free when you subscribe to the Book Club newsletter. There is a link on the website, and in the show notes in your podcast app if you are listening on your phone or tablet.
 
I hope you find Phil’s reflective questions useful.
 
As always if you can add a review or rating on iTunes that is much appreciated. Until next week, remember that resilience is a journey not a destination.
