Human V Automated Decision-Making: Have We Gone Too Far?
We have reached a critical crossroads in the digitisation and automation of processes within insurance and financial services. Some say that we have already gone too far and the human element is being continuously eroded, whereas others believe we have not gone far enough and that insurance and financial services continue to lag behind other professions. There is a fine balance to be struck.
This session is a pre-seminar webinar for our Flagship event "The Evolving Workplace in the 21st Century" happening on Thursday 9 October, Novotel, Leeds.

Back by popular demand — It’s Rounders time again!
Last year, you knocked it out of the park, and we’re bringing the magic back for another round! Young insurance professionals, this is your chance to step away from the desk, grab a bat (or a beverage), and connect with peers at our action-packed Rounders Social Event.
Whether you’re a rounders pro or haven’t swung a bat since school days, everyone’s welcome to join the fun. Expect laughter, friendly competition, and conversations that go beyond business.
Not a player? No problem. You can still soak up the social vibes... we’ve got tickets for those who just fancy networking, cheering from the side lines, or catching up over a drink.

Public Speaking and Presentation Skills – Making the Difficult Easy
Being asked to deliver a presentation or address a room full of people can be seen as a daunting task. A lack of adequate training or preparation to make such a presentation can lead to anxiety, nervousness and perhaps even fear. This in turn can create limitations – such as slowing down your career path or failing to close that deal you have been working on.
This interactive workshop will provide you with practical guidance and techniques that will enable you to improve and master your presentation skills in a clear, confident and professional manner that will leave a lasting and positive impression on your audience.
