SUMMARY:Henley Centre for Leadership Research Visit Series: The Impact of Temporal Schemata: Understanding When Individuals Entrain versus Resist or Create Temporal Structure - Professor Abbie Shipp\, Neeley School of Business
DESCRIPTION:Abbie Shipp\, Professor of Management\, Director of Adaptive Leader Executive Education Program\,  Neeley School of Business\, Texas Christian University \nAs the pace of contemporary work increases\, leaders in organizations seek to coordinate their employees’ efforts\, particularly through the temporal coordination of rhythms. Yet little research has examined individual cognition\, affect\, and behavior in response to the “pull” of entrainment to an organization’s temporal structure. In this paper\, we develop theory highlighting how individuals use temporal schemata—cognitive frameworks about time—to interpret and respond to temporal cues provided by an organization’s temporal structure (i.e.\, “push back”). In contrast to prior research\, we propose that individuals can automatically or deliberately entrain\, actively or passively resist\, or create additional temporal structure. This model emphasizes the underdeveloped individual-level aspects of entrainment\, contributing to future research by demonstrating that: 1) entrainment varies in degree and type\, 2) entrainment (or lack thereof) is both cognitive and affective\, and 3) entrainment may not be sustained. Several paradoxes are identified in how leaders can practically apply the model. \nBiography \nDr. Abbie J. Shipp is a Professor of Management at Texas Christian University. Her research focuses on the psychological experience of time at work including: how individuals think about the past/present/future\, trajectories of work experiences over time\, how individuals react to change\, and how time is spent on work tasks. Her work appears in premier outlets such as Academy of Management Review\, Annual Review of Organizational Psychology and Organizational Behavior\, Journal of Applied Psychology\, Journal of Management\, Organizational Behavior and Human Decision Processes\, and Personnel Psychology\, and she is the co-editor (with Dr. Yitzhak Fried) of a two-volume book entitled\, Time and Work. She is an editorial board member of Academy of Management Journal\, Academy of Management Review\, and Journal of Management. In addition to prior work at The Boeing Company and TV Guide as well as consulting work with multiple Fortune 500 companies\, she is currently on the board of ZOE\, a global non-profit focused on empowerment efforts for orphans and vulnerable children. \n

SUMMARY:University of Reading Engagement and Impact Awards
DESCRIPTION:From securing African farmers’ futures to building the confidence of Reading mums who’ve been out of the job market for a while\, 12 research projects making a real-world impact have been shortlisted for the University of Reading’s Research Engagement and Impact Awards. The winners will be announced at an Awards ceremony on 25 June\, and University colleagues\, stakeholders and anyone with an interest in our research is warmly invited to attend. \nEntries were whittled down to the top 12 by a panel including Professor Parveen Yaqoob\, Pro Vice Chancellor for Research and Innovation. Judges were impressed by the quality and breadth of the applications. \nSpanning climate science\, education\, law\, design\, global development and computer science\, the shortlist represents a broad cross-section of Reading research benefiting people locally\, nationally and globally. \n \nOne of the selected projects\, ‘Marvellous mums’ supports local\, less socially advantaged women\, many of whom have been out of work for some time. The programme\, led by Professor Carol Fuller\, is boosting women’s confidence and self-esteem and empowering them to make changes that will help them develop more fulfilling lives for themselves and their families. \nAnd on an international scale\, millions of small-holder farmers across Africa can now look forward to a more secure future thanks to satellite-derived estimates of rainfall that are helping insurance companies provide effective cover against drought. That’s thanks to the TAMSAT project\, led by Professor Emily Black\, which allows farmers to get weather-index insurance that pays out if cumulative rainfall drops below a pre-agreed threshold\, even if their farm is a long way from a rain gauge. \nThe full list of shortlisted projects is: \n\nEmily Black – Drought insurance using TAMSAT rainfall estimates\nTony Capstick – Language for resilience in refugee settings\nJoanna Clark – Loddon Catchment Consultancy (GV2LCC)\nRebecca Emerton and Andrea Ficchi – Real-time flood briefings for humanitarian emergency response to cyclones in Mozambique\nFederico Faloppa – Leading Amnesty International’s task force against hate speech in Italy\nJames Ferryman – Biometrics Research Leads to Frictionless and More Secure Border Crossings\nCarol Fuller – Marvellous Mums/Marvellous Me\nRosa Freedman – Safeguarding Children from Sexual Exploitation and Abuse in Conflict and Crisis Zones\nHilary Geoghegan – Opening up science for all (OPENER)\nChristopher Newdick – Priority Setting in the NHS\nNatthapoj VincentTrakulphadetkrai – Maths through stories\nSue Walker – Information design\, architecture\, pharmacy: getting the message across about AMR\n\n  \nAt the Awards ceremony there will be an opportunity to learn more about the shortlisted projects through quickfire 2-minute presentations and posters from the shortlisted researchers and there will be an address from guest speaker Paul Manners\, Director of the National Coordinating Centre for Public Engagement. The event will be hosted by Professor Parveen Yaqoob\, Pro Vice Chancellor for Research and Innovation. \nRegister to attend \nWatch a film of last year’s winners \nFind out more about the Research Impact and Engagement Awards.

SUMMARY:Reading 2050: 'The Current and Future Role of Thames Valley Berkshire Local Enterprise Partnership' by Tim Smith MBE
DESCRIPTION:Tim Smith MBE from Thames Valley Berkshire Local Enterprise Partnership (LEP)\, will give a free Reading 2050 lecture: ‘The Current and Future Role of Thames Valley Berkshire LEP’ on 20 June. Ahead of the lecture\, here he gives a taster of what the LEP is\, what it does\, and how you can get involved. \nOver four years into implementing our Strategic Economic Plan we’re now responding to the government’s modern Industrial Strategy by leading on a local Industrial Strategy for Thames Valley Berkshire (BLIS). \nThe aim is that by March 2020 we will have produced a BLIS that recognises the natural capital of Thames Valley Berkshire while improving productivity and taking an inclusive approach to building prosperity. \nThe co-ordination of local industrial strategies\, guided by a national framework\, is a big step forward and one which is welcomed. LEPs are here to sustain economic growth and this is our chance to make a significant difference. Despite being a business-led organisation\, we are a public-private-community sector partnership and already entrusted with £218m public funds to drive economic growth in Thames Valley Berkshire. \n‘Local’ knowledge and understanding are at the core of effective local industrial strategies. We know the importance of our area\, the contribution of – and the challenges to – our economy as well as the need to create spaces for new ideas to develop. We also understand that this is a time of such uncertainty and there is much expectation of economic policy. As the advocate of the area we have a responsibility to respond to this and shape a strategy for the coming decade. \nWe are working to achieve this\, and substantive work has already been done to build a robust evidence base. We have recently published our BLIS Framework Document and this lecture comes just as we’re asking for the support of the business\, local authority\, community and education sectors in supporting the document. \nThe essence of being a successful partnership is to be found in the way the LEP develops and fosters relationships and understanding between the many stakeholder organisations. My lecture will set out who we are\, what we’re doing\, how we’re approaching this challenge and how you can get involved. \nYou can download the BLIS Framework Document at http://bit.ly/TVBIndustrialStrategy \n \n  \nTim’s lecture is part of the ‘Economy and Employment’ theme of the Reading 2050 lecture series\, which provide a platform to discuss how Reading should evolve into a smarter and more sustainable city by 2050 (www.reading2050.co.uk ) \nThe SBE\, Barton Wilmore and Reading UK\, established the Reading 2050 group in 2013. The Reading 2050 lecture series is structured around three themes\, which underpin the Reading 2050 vision: \n*Place and Environment\n*People and Lifestyle\n*Economy and Employment \nIn 2017\, the School brought together expert speakers to discuss Reading’s heritage and history\, the future of its transport and energy and the impact of climate change and floods. A discussion on Reading’s Art and Culture was facilitated in 2018\, and there are other Reading 2050 events planned for 2019. \nhttps://livingreading.co.uk/publications-events

SUMMARY:Reading 2050: What is the Future of the Tech Economy in Reading?
DESCRIPTION:Reading has a rich history going back to medieval times and a reputation for change and adaption to economic pressures and technological change. \nLocation and connectivity have been the single most consistent factors in Reading’s economic evolution.  Most reminiscent in Readings economic history is the 3Bs: ‘Beer\, Biscuits\, and Bulbs’ dating back to the 1800s and the industrial revolution. \nMore recently we coined the acronym ‘the 3Is’: IT\, Investment and Insurance. A stark change from the three B’s this is a major transformation from a manufacturing secondary sector economy to a Knowledge based\, tertiary sector economy.  From factories to offices\,  from transporting goods and services by land to transporting deals\, knowledge and information via the internet\, from blue collar  6pm-6pm manual jobs to  white collar 9pm – 5pm and 24 /7 trading. \nEven so the 3Is are evolving  to be more specialist. Energy and life sciences feature widely in our economy.  We are going big scale Microsoft HQ to co working space for entrepreneurs\, we are becoming more niche digi-tech\, fin-tech\, bio-tech nano-tech. \nThis makes for a very interesting future and something we must respond to in planning and regenerating our city especially as the pace of change is becoming more rapid. \nWill place determine our economic landscape or will we simply become a convenient place for the sectors of tomorrow to land and grow?  Can we fuel the future sectors in Reading with people\, places to live and a life style they want? What will the next three letter acronym be to describe Readings economy?  Will it only be three will it be more or less? Does it matter? \nPlease join Nigel Horton-Baker from Reading UK for a lecture: ‘What is the Future of the Tech Economy in Reading?’ \nThe lecture is part of the ‘Economy and Employment’ theme of the Reading 2050 lecture series\, which provide a platform to discuss how Reading should evolve into a smarter and more sustainable city by 2050 (www.reading2050.co.uk ) \nAdmission to the lecture is free. \nThe SBE\, Barton Wilmore and Reading UK\, established the Reading 2050 group in 2013. The Reading 2050 lecture series is structured around three themes\, which underpin the Reading 2050 vision: \n*Place and Environment\n*People and Lifestyle\n*Economy and Employment \nIn 2017\, the School brought together expert speakers to discuss Reading’s heritage and history\, the future of its transport and energy and the impact of climate change and floods. A discussion on Reading’s Art and Culture was facilitated in 2018\, and there are other Reading 2050 events planned for 2019. \n
