Dove Nest Group

Welcome to the first post in the new Dove Nest Blog. My name is Peter Gregson and I am one of the Dove Nest Programme Managers. I’ll be blogging about anything that takes my fancy as I go about my work and travelling up and down the country. As I come across interesting and amusing subjects and situations I’ll share them here.

One of the hot topics in the L&D world at the moment is resilience which is a subject we’ve been interested in for some time. There’s an interesting piece on the BBC website today at http://www.bbc.co.uk/guides/z2qxfrd about whether our degree of resilience is determined by our DNA. It’s a fascinating debate.

On the evening of Thursday 14th April we’re hosting an event in London to explore this topic in more detail. We’ll be joined by industry leading speakers and there will be the opportunity to contribute to what I’m sure will be a lively debate, as well as to network with fellow L&D professionals. If you’re interested in joining us please drop an email to jane.edmondson@dovenest.co.uk and she’ll make sure we let you have the details once we’ve finalised the programme, the venue and the speakers. Some of the areas we’re planning to look at are the impact a constantly changing professional landscape has on workplace leadership,  what tools can be used to measure workforce resilience and how best to equip individuals to perform as resilient leader.

It should be a really interesting evening. Watch out for the next P.G tip!
