We’ll examine both the opportunities provided by this technology and the limitations to consider, ensuring a balanced perspective on its integration. Experience first hand how generative AI can act as a catalyst in refining and advancing your L&D strategies.

✨ Experimenting with something new! ✨ Instead of sending out my usual thought-provoking weekly article, I’m testing a different approach: would you prefer just a selfie of me in Amsterdam? 😄 As professionals, we’re constantly balancing between valuable insights and personal connections. So here’s me, stepping out of the comfort zone to see if a little more personal touch resonates better! What do you think? Back to thought pieces next week, or should I stick with selfies? 📸 #Amsterdam #WorkLifeBalance #CommunityExperiment

🌿 Excited to be part of Land Life's green revolution! 🌿 One of the best things about being an interim HR & Recruitment Specialist at De Wervingsfabriek is the opportunity to experience diverse and unique workplaces. Currently, I'm excited to work with Land Life and contribute to their mission of reforesting the planet and restoring degraded land. 🌍 How do they make impact? Land Life's dedication to climate, biodiversity, and supporting communities is very inspiring: - They've planted 10 million trees (wow!) 🌳 - Restored 25,000 hectares of degraded land 🌱 - Captured over 5 million tons of CO₂ 💨 It's incredibly rewarding to work alongside passionate individuals who are committed to making a difference and creating a sustainable future. 💚 How do I support Land Life? One of my current goals is to streamline the onboarding process, making sure every new team member has a warm welcome and feels ready to contribute. Effective onboarding is key to integrating and empowering employees from day one. What do you think makes an onboarding process successful? Curious to learn more? Let’s connect and discuss how we can improve HR and/or Recruitment processes in your organization!

This week Louise van Haarst and I hosted a roundtable for CTO Craft Conversations diving deep into this topic: Psychological Safety in Tech Teams The success of round table events depends entirely on the curiosity and contributions from participants and this group delivered. Here is a snapshot of where their curiosity and experiences took them... 💡 As a leader, how do I know if I've created a psychologically safe environment for the team? ↳ Ask them what they think...and listen to what they have to say ↳ Watch what they do (or don't do). Are they engaged in their work? Is turnover high? Are they bringing you ideas? Do they tell you about what's not going well? Do they challenge you and give you feedback? 💡 What do I do when one person's "uncomfortable but safe" is another person's "unsafe"? ↳ Context is key. Comfort and safety vary widely from individual to individual. ↳ Understand individual preferences and needs (ask them...) ↳ Acknowledge and accept differences in needs and support levels ↳ Align on team ground rules that takes individual needs into account where possible whilst keeping the team performance and goals front of mind. 💡 How do I know if the reasons someone feels unsafe are due to the environment or are personal to them? ↳ Individual psychological safety is influenced by organisational dynamics and our personal histories. ↳ If many people are reporting feeling unsafe you are more likely to have an environmental issue than an isolated or individual experience one. ↳ In the end it does it really matter? If you want to get the best out of someone finding out what if any tweaks you can make in the team to help them feel at their best is a conversation worth having, even if the root issues are complex. 💡Who is responsible for creating and maintaining psychological safety? ↳ Leadership sets the tone and has an outsized influence through role modelling the behaviours they want to foster ↳ But every team member can influence how psychologically safe their colleagues feel, and have a responsibility to uphold it day to day. One thing we concluded on the train home was how encouraged we were by the level of interest and commitment this group of senior teach execs have in fostering spaces where everyone feels safe to contribute, learn, and grow 🌱 Hurrah 🙌 🌟 What challenges are you navigating when it comes to psychological safety?  🙏 to Andy Skipper for the invite and to Hannah Van Nostrand for the organisation and hospitality. Paul Ingles Stefan Ross Zoe Cunningham Hywel Carver khurram khalid Joel Chippindale ♻️ Repost to help others and follow Alice Driscoll and Louise van Haarst for tips on how to supercharge your team leadership. ------------------- Looking to upskill leaders in your business?

   🌷⚙ Women in tech meetup: Entrepreneurship ⚙🌷   According to a 2021 report by Crunchbase, there's a significant gap in venture capital funding between male and female founders: - Companies founded solely by women received just 2.3% of total VC funding in 2020. - Mixed-gender founding teams got about 12%. - Male-only founded companies took the vast majority of the remaining funding. Luckily, in 2023 funding for female (co)-owned companies peaked, though that is largely due to some companies, for instance OpenAI and Anthropic, both co-founded by women, acquiring billion dollar funds. To dive deeper into where this under-funding in female founded startups, Linda Grafen and me organise another Women in Tech Meetup, aimed at entrepreneurship. With two talks and a roundtable, experienced as well as starting female founders are joined by a female investor to discuss what can be done to improve the figures mentioned above. Join us at TMC Hengelo on the 12th of September to hear their thoughts. Even if you have no entrepreneurial aspiriations, the talks will still provide insights on how to navigate your career in tech! Sign up through Meetup: https://lnkd.in/etB983qT More information on the Crunchbase research: https://lnkd.in/ebwz_hnd https://lnkd.in/eveW2MGc

💥Starting today, I am stepping into the role of Investment Manager at Social Impact Fonds Rotterdam (SIF-Rotterdam). I’ll be offering support on a flexible basis, while continuing my work with Ammerlaan Strategy Consulting. 🌟SIF is an organization dedicated to driving societal change in Dutch cities through social impact investments. 🎖️With SIF's recent expansion to The Hague and exploration of expanding into Amsterdam, I’ll be focusing on new investment opportunities, guiding target companies, and helping the funds flourish. 🔮 I'm excited to be part of shaping a future where social good and financial returns go hand in hand. And, even beyond the social enterprises, I strongly believe that this harmonization will increasingly become a no-brainer for organizations in the developed world. 💫The shift towards more socially responsible investments will not just be desirable (and financially attractive), but will also be a gamebreaker for the future success of companies. Let's accelerate this shift, and lead by example! 💨💨💨
