"We all have our purpose, we all have our strengths." Beyoncé We'll be joined by Genelle Aldred, a communications consultant, to explore how confidence and communication are two things that can be the difference between those women who are like the best-kept secrets, and those who are well-recognised and known for what they can do. 'Tall poppy syndrome' can make some women not want to be seen as showing off, being too much, or drawing unwanted attention to themselves.  It seems that those women who do, are either chopped down or not seen as 'nice girls'; however they are also the ones that get ahead, change the world and get the opportunities. Or does it all just seem this way because of how society judges women who are confident and ambitious? Genelle will explore this topic, how to worry less about the invisible "they", and learn how to communicate in a way that will help you to celebrate your strengths and purpose.  She will also share some practical tips on how to be a confident and effective communicator. There will also be plenty of time to get to know other women who work in Bankside and foster new connections.

Join the Positive Planet team, for an informative and interactive Carbon Literacy Certified training course, a qualification recognised by the United Nations. Carbon Literacy training provides organisations with an awareness of the climate-related costs and impacts of their activities and the ability and motivation to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. The training is open to any Better Bankside member with the cost covered by Better Bankside. Is this course right for me? This course is aimed at Bankside businesses, their employees and anyone looking to increase their awareness of carbon dioxide costs, impacts, and most importantly how to reduce emissions. The course would be especially useful for those people who have a responsibility for sustainability and carbon reduction within their role. The course will enable you to empower your team to take climate action. The course will also give you the knowledge, skills and confidence to act to reduce your carbon emissions to support your company’s and the UKs Net Zero target. Where? This in-person training event will be held at Smart Energy GB in The Crane Building, 22 Lavington Street, SE1 0FD. There will be opportunities to network about your net zero plans with like-minded businesses from across Bankside. What’s on offer?

No matter who you are or where you work, there are bound to be times when you are required to have difficult conversations. This may be raising a concern, addressing inappropriate behaviour, having to disagree, saying “no” or something else that you find challenging or awkward. Most people would rather not have the conversation, and instead try to avoid it or hope it goes away. In addition, there are times when we may have a difficult conversation but in an ineffective way, which can make the situation worse. This interactive 90 minute workshop aims to enhance skills and boost your confidence when having difficult or sensitive conversations. The emphasis will be on communicating effectively and taking a proactive approach. We will: As the session will be interactive there will be opportunities to ask questions throughout, as well as time dedicated at the end for a Q&A.

Question: What sets apart those who triumph in their pursuits from those who do not? Answer: Effective Goal Setting. With the emphasis on the word ‘Effective’! People generally know the importance and benefits of setting goals but most people do not know how to do so effectively. Others might describe goal setting a little like marmite; they either “love it or hate it”. If you love goal setting, or want to upskill, then this workshop is for you. However, if you have given up on goal setting because it hasn’t worked for you in the past or you just don’t know the benefits of it, you would equally get a lot out of this workshop. In addition, we will cover the common mistakes and pitfalls people make when creating and trying to achieve their goals. This is an interactive workshop, so you will be able to ask questions throughout. There will also be a dedicated Q&A session at the end.

Every single coffee GB produce goes through this process prior to being labelled and put into bags. They complete this with their head roaster, head of production, and anyone else who wishes to join in from their teams. It does take a bit of pallet training to get to the top level of this process, imagine notes of wine, very similar. They have recently stopped putting their flavour notes on the bags of coffee as the notes differ from person to person, they rather like to provide a little information on how each coffee should taste, for example, their natural Propeller is described as "Fun, Lively & Fruity". They do however hold house cupping events with their teams, so that they can give a personal touch to the notes that their teams have gotten when tasting the coffee. They'll get onto the different processes when it comes to coffee, so you and the team can understand what the difference is! They'll go through the whole process and they've managed to get Roosa, their head of production involved so that we've got their expert within your grasp to ask any questions. She's just got back from a trip to many coffee farms across Brazil, so if there's anything you want to know about coffee, she's all yours! Here's a  link to the "SCA (Specialty Coffee Association) Flavour Wheel", so feel free to share this one, it's used commonly during a tasting process to try and pinpoint an exact note! https://notbadcoffee.com/flavor-wheel-en/ This session is part of Fresh Start September, designed to turbocharge the second half of your year.

During this training session, we will look at understanding racism and what an anti-racism practice is. This session will cover topics such as the history of race, the four dimensions of racism, and terminology including white privilege, micro-aggressions, intersectionality and racial gaslighting, as well as allyship and what’s next. Outcomes of the session: We recommend signing up to the follow up ‘how to influence your sphere’ training on 23 May to learn how to be a proactive anti-racist ally. This event will be held online, and a video link will be supplied. This training course is delivered by Everyday Racism, an organisation that seeks to educate and provide resourced on being actively anti-racist.  It was set up by sisters Natalie and Naomi Evans as a platform to share stories from Black and Brown people to highlight their everyday experiences of racism in the UK.  It quickly evolved to share education information about language and anti-racist terminology, and now Everyday Racism provides training courses, workshops and educational resources all based around how to be actively anti-racist.
