Panel Discussion – Where are the Work Opportunities?
Panel Discussion – “The changing roles of independent professionals – the opportunities and threats”.
Going Global – “Winning Overseas Assignments – including a Key Note Presentation by UKTI – followed by real-life stories of Interims who have successfully operated overseas
Four key Break-out sessions where we need your views and news – as you, no doubt will be keen to hear from others – and where we plan a quick-fire feedback to share the value as widely as we can.

Finally – at the end of what is intended to be one of the most intense learning and business development days you’ve will have probably experienced for quite some time, we ask you the surprisingly improbable question DOES SEX REALLY MATTER? Pauline Crawford – with her ability to present serious issues in a hugely non-serious way – will explain why Gender Dynamics makes that 5% difference!
You will then be welcomed to our Drinks Reception at 5.30pm, hosted by InterimWomen and very kindly sponsored by our preferred PI Insurance Brokers, Caunce O’Hara. And we are delighted that their MD, Chris Caunce, has kindly agreed to announce the winners of our Summer Competition “Does anyone know what Growth is?”
