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 welcome to Episode 21 of Beyond the Black Stump. The impact of my late start to the show in 2016 is that the January programs are a lot closer together than normal - hope you can keep up with all this listening!
 
Last week I shared some ideas about planning for 2016 and my 3 focus words. This week we have a practitioner sharing 3 words - but not just from a purely personal perspective. When I approach my gues today I explained the concept and asked him to come up with 3 words that he thought could be applicable across the discipline.
 
Our thought leader today is uniquely positioned to offer that advice. He is a practitioner and leads the BC and EM practice for a large government agency, and in that role he is a previous winner of the BCI regional Public Sector Manager of the Year. He also serves on the Board of the local BCI Chapter.
 
His third, and in my view most important, role that qualifies for this assignment - he Chairs the organising committee for the Australasian BC Summit so hopefully his 3 words will be informed by, and perhaps shape, the education offered at that event.
 
It will be interesting to hear how it unfolds. Especially as the theme chosen for the 2016 Summit "From practice to profession" was the inspiration for one of my own focus words for 2016.
 
Join me as we go Beyond the Black Stump with Glen Redstall.

Thanks to Glen for taking the time not only to record the show, but also to think and reflect on those 3 words. Prior to this show my guests have only been asked to turn up and chat - Glen was the first who got a homework assignment to go with it!
 
What do you think about his 3 words?

I only heard his choices for the first time when we recorded the show, I think they work - but jump on the LinkedIN group and share your thoughts.
Are you inspired or challenged to come on the show and share your ideas and experience with the global community? If so let me know - email, Twitter, LinkedIN, even old school phone or mail if you prefer.
 
This show is being released on the last Friday of the month, normally reserved for Book Club, but never fear there will be a special "bonus" book club episode out shortly.
 
As always if you find the show useful it would be great if you could jump onto iTunes and provide a comment or rating on the show.
 
Until next time, stay safe on your journey.
