SUMMARY:HCL Webinar: The Leaders Secret Code: The Belief Systems That Distinguish Winners
DESCRIPTION:Date and time: 29 September 2020 at 10am-11am\nLocation: Held virtually on Zoom\, details TBC\nName of organiser: Ben Laker \nWhat makes a great leader? Why are some leaders more successful than others? Is there a formula that one can follow to emulate the best of the best? \nJoin our webinar\, ‘The Leaders Secret Code’\, where we will divulge findings from the recently published book of the same name\, and gain insights that answer these very questions. Discover how a leader’s focus should be less on what they do and how they behave\, but more centred on what causes them to behave in the way they do – their beliefs and values.

SUMMARY:Insights into winning (and losing) grants as an early career researcher
DESCRIPTION:Insights into winning (and losing) grants as an early career researcher \nPhil Davies \nHenley Research Grant Webinar \nPhil Davies has recently won an EPSRC grant worth ~£100k alongside an industrial partner and has recently seen his ESRC New Investigators Grant (worth roughly ~£300k) pass review and make it to panel. Whilst Phil has now had a success and passed the first round of another grant\, Phil also has a few losses from which he can share his experience. The purpose of this webinar is therefore to give ECRs\, or anyone new to grant writing\, insight into the grant writing process\, what makes a successful grant and what doesn’t and some lessons learnt from winning and losing grants to support your grant bids going forward. Phil will also highlight a number of resources he found particular useful in writing his grants.  \nThe webinar will be roughly 20-30 minutes of presentation following by 30-40 minutes of Q&A \n  \nIf you wish to join the webinar\, please contact Jana Oslejova for an invite in Teams. \n  \nJana Oslejova \nDepartment Administrator—International Business and Strategy \nHenley Business School\, University of Reading \nj.oslejova@reading.ac.uk

SUMMARY:Biscuits to Big Tech: Reading's rise to economic prosperity
DESCRIPTION:University Public Lecture Series \nProfessor Kathy Pain (Real Estate and Planning): Biscuits to Big Tech: Reading’s rise to economic prosperity \nReading was once a sleepy county town famed for its ‘beer\, biscuits and bulbs’ but today it is a hub for high-tech industry with international links. How did it get that way and how can we make sure its economic success continues? \nIn this lecture\, Professor Kathy Pain will explore the town’s rise to prosperity and the future sustainability problems facing densely developed urban regions like Reading. She will draw on her research which shows how investing in so-called ‘good density’ – well-designed and compact cities with affordable public transport; available jobs and talent; and ‘green and blue infrastructure’ such as hedgerows and waterways – could help secure Reading’s future success in a changing economic landscape. \nKathy Pain is Professor of Real Estate Development at the University of Reading\, Henley Business School. Her research focuses on sustainable city and regional development\, governance and planning in today’s interconnected world economy. \nAdmission free. Booking advisable.

SUMMARY:The Private Sector and Global Nutrition: Are Businesses Heroes or Villains?
DESCRIPTION:Alumni Lecture \nProfessor Lawrence Haddad\, Executive Director of the Global Alliance for Improved Nutrition \nThe University of Reading is proud to announce that the next event in the inspirational Alumni Lecture Series will feature alumnus Professor Lawrence Haddad (BSc Food Science and Food Education\, 1980). \nLawrence is a British economist who has forged an influential career in food\, agriculture and nutrition. He is currently Executive Director of the Global Alliance for Improved Nutrition (GAIN). In 2018 Lawrence was co-recipient of the prestigious World Food Prize for “extraordinary intellectual and policy leadership in bringing maternal and child nutrition to the forefront of the global food security agenda and thereby significantly reducing childhood stunting”. \nOne in three people globally are malnourished. If we keep doing what we are doing\, we will fall far short of the global goals the world has set for 2030. How to change the dynamic? One glaring gap is the public sector’s failure to engage the private sector properly to help advance nutrition. Most people buy their food\, even in poorer countries\, and in doing so they are engaging the private sector. So ignoring businesses is not an option. But engaging them sensibly is also not easy. Which companies\, in which circumstances\, and for which population groups? How do maximise positives and avoid negatives? Businesses are part of the problem of malnutrition\, but also have to be a bigger part of the solution. This talk outlines some of the ways to stimulate this transition of the private sector from sometime villains to frequent heroes.

SUMMARY:Women in Sport: Overcoming and Succeeding
DESCRIPTION:Edith Morley Lecture 2020 – guest panel discussion \nTo mark International Women’s Day\, we are delighted to present this annual event in memory of Edith Morley\, with a panel discussion bringing together female innovators and game-changers from the sporting world. Historically\, sports have been a male dominated arena with very low numbers of women involved. Today\, the number of female athletes are rising significantly\, yet\, women’s sports are highly underrepresented in the media\, and female athletes earn considerably less than their male counterparts. \nA guest panel will cover a wide range of topics including how these remarkable sportswomen have overcome barriers and gone onto achieve great success in their fields. The panel includes Fara Williams\, Reading FC Women and England player\, Kelly Chambers\, Director of Women’s and Girls Football\, Reading FC Women\, Cath Bishop\, Olympic Rower\, and Alice Kirkup\, Captain of the University of Reading’s netball first team. \nAdmission free. Booking advisable. Please click here for more information and to book
