What challenges do you foresee in implementing a values-driven approach, like The SUPPORT Framework, in your organisation, and how might it enhance your strategic decisions related to employee well-being?   This seminar will provide an opportunity to hear from experts and discuss specific areas of interest for you and your company, in a small group setting, with a Q&A session after the presentation.    Please note that this will be a small roundtable, informal event.

Meet Kirstine Dela Torre, a BSc International Business with French student who had a year’s placement with My English Sister. “My role was divided between digital marketing and childcare and teaching. As a Digital Marketing Intern, my primary focus was on enhancing our online presence through projects such as developing content marketing strategies and optimising our website for SEO. On the childcare and teaching side, I worked closely with children and created personalised lesson plans to support their language development.” Kirstine gives advice to future placement students. “Do not let fear limit your potential. It's normal to feel apprehensive at the beginning but don't let this fear undermine your abilities. Trust in your potential and you'll find that you can achieve more than you might initially believe.” Secure a placement like Kirstine’s: https://lnkd.in/dcENRq3H #QBSBusiness
