Embrace the Change: Navigating the Menopause with Confidence

Friday 25th October at 1pm

This October, join us for a conversation with Nicola Green, a global workplace speaker and passionate advocate for menopause support and education.

Nicola was diagnosed with premature menopause in her 30s whilst trying to balance the constant juggle of a pressurised career in residential property and family life. She hit her own personal rock bottom due to her lack of understanding around the menopause and how to manage the symptoms. 

Upon reflection, she sees this time as the catalyst for positive change. Nicola now wants to educate and empower women to prevent comments that she has heard on repeat such as “Why didn’t I know this stuff years ago, I feel like I’ve lost years of my life” and “I don’t think I’m bad enough yet”.

Topics explored will include:

 – ‘Real Life’ Menopause Support: Gain practical insights and strategies to navigate the physical and emotional challenges. 

– Breaking the Silence: Learn how to initiate open conversations, fostering greater awareness and support in the workplace and beyond.

 – Empowering Self-Advocacy: Discover how to effectively advocate for your needs and access the resources necessary for a fulfilling life during the menopause.

Sign up for this webinar and empower yourself with the knowledge and information you need to navigate the menopause with confidence.

Cyber Security and Keeping Your Property Business Safe

In this months’ webinar we will be joined by special guest Francis West. Francis is on a mission to secure and protect systems and operations from jeopardy. He explains that the challenge with defending against cyber threats is that they are hidden. Most people are oblivious to the extent and impact of attacks that impair organisations every day. Drawing on over three decades in the IT industry, his role is to educate business owners, then provide tailored solutions to minimise the risks.

According to Property Eye and Hiscox, the Property Sector are suffering from the largest number of cyber-attacks in the UK. If you do not want to be one of them, then this webinar is for you! In the session, you will learn how to best protect your business and your clients from cyber-attacks.

In the webinar Francis will cover topics such as valuable data, email communication, discuss multiple systems and platforms, lack of cybersecurity awareness and remote and mobile devices. By addressing these vulnerabilities and adopting robust cybersecurity practices, property agents can significantly reduce their risk of falling victim to cyber attacks.
