This episode is a bit different, I’m excited to share with you more about my new “Joining the Dots” project that is launching this September in collaboration with the brilliant Take Part.

With more than 25 years working with small, medium and large organisations all around the world, and eight years as the founder and Managing Director of LR Comms, a strategic communications consultancy, I know how vital finding the right people and communicating effectively can be to the success of your business.

I’m also increasingly aware of the constant challenges that my clients and other businesses face in attracting and retaining the right people, especially in today’s post-covid world where our traditional ways of doing things have been thrown out of the window.

At the same time, our young people are struggling to get inspired. They are expected, at thirteen and fourteen years of age, to start to make choices about their own futures, yet they have very few, if any opportunities to explore the world of work, and to find out more about how it all works.

How can they know what they want to do, where their strengths lie and what they enjoy doing if they aren’t given the chance to discover more, to hear from real people in real jobs, to get experience in different industries and types of roles and to ask questions?

I want to bridge the gap between the world of business and young people, and encourage our future generations to get curious, explore opportunities and make the choice to create a life doing what they love.

My new Joining the Dots programme aims to bridge the gap between these two worlds, providing our young people with the insights, opportunities and inspiration they need to be able to make the right choices and create a life they want and enable businesses to connect with future employees, build awareness for what they do and encourage more people to want to join them.

I’d love to know what you think and if you’d like to get involved. You can find all the links to find out more and get in touch in the shownotes.
