BRANCH NEWS 60SECONDS WITH THAMES VALLEY BRANCH AGM AND APPRENTICESHIP BRIEFING CLOSE to 30 members attended Thames Valley branch’s AGM at Sonning Golf Club. The formal business of the AGM saw the branch report on another active year with a slight increase in the number of events organised from 2015. The most significant achievement for the branch was its continued and increasing activity around promoting credit as a career with attendance at six career fairs. Goals were set for 2017 with the expectation that this would be the branch’s busiest year on record in terms of events organised, career fairs attended and other efforts to increase visibility of the branch and credit as a profession. Debbie Tuckwood then talked us through a presentation entitled Apprenticeships – the tipping point for Credit Management. After explaining some of the benefits that apprenticeships offer, and the need for qualifications within our industry, Debbie shared with us the names of the companies already involved, how the CICM can help companies wishing to start the scheme, and advised that the Government website on apprenticeships now had guidance relating to credit management apprenticeships. Useful information on how the new May 2017 Apprenticeship Levy will work plus a summary of its key features then followed – a clear message came out that companies liable to pay the levy should ‘use it or lose it’. Debbie ended with suggesting some actions people could now take around considering apprenticeships in their Dr Debbie Tuckwood companies and provided links for further information on the subject. Bryony Pettifor concluded the presentation session by giving us an insight into her team’s experience around qualifications and apprenticeships. Bryony also gave a comprehensive update to the audience on the efforts of the CICM Advisory Council Working Party on Careers and ended by reminding everyone that as credit professionals we are entitled to sign passport photographs. Thanks were then given to all involved, with some taking the opportunity to network while having another tea or coffee.

I like the fact that I work for world-wide and market leader in recruitment, that is always looking to be the best in class. WHAT MOTIVATES YOU? The success of my teams and the development of individuals within them is what motivates me each day. WHAT SKILL DO YOU THINK HAS HELPED YOU MOST IN YOUR CREDIT CAREER SO FAR? Willingness to learn new skills and determination to succeed. NAME THREE PEOPLE YOU WOULD INVITE TO A DINNER PARTY AND WHY? John Terry, Frank Lampard and Gordon Ramsey – as an avid Chelsea fan it would be amazing to have dinner with two legends. We’d also need good food which is where Gordon would come in! WHAT IS YOUR FAVOURITE PASTIME/ RELAXATION ACTIVITY? Watching football either Chelsea or my son play for his club team. WHAT IS THE BEST/WORST QUALITY IN A LEADER? The best has to be to lead by example and not expecting your team to do jobs you wouldn’t. The worst would be, being out of touch with your team or losing their support and trust. WHAT CAN'T YOU LIVE WITHOUT? Family and football. WHAT’S BEEN YOUR MOST REWARDING MOMENT IN YOUR CREDIT CAREER? My current team, they are truly supportive and are great at what they do.
