SUMMARY:The ABPI Code for the unacquainted
DESCRIPTION:Introduction\nWe know that a whole-day’s compliance training can be a bit of a grind and you can spend a lot of time covering things you’ll never do and don’t need to know about.

Relax and spend 2 hours of your life learning about the ABPI Code of Practice\, what it is and how it operates. We’ll take you through the key things to think about when undertaking any activity and explain the basic rules of this pharma life. \n  \nAbout the trainer\nNick Broughton is a physician who has worked previously in large pharma as a director in UK and European Medical and Regulatory Affairs. He has over 20 years of experience reviewing and approving promotional and other material. He has a special interest in pharmaceutical ethics and how to incorporate that within compliance education to make it meaningful and memorable

SUMMARY:Managing Pressure and Building Resilience
DESCRIPTION:About the course\nThese two sessions\, which will be delivered via Zoom on consecutive days\, are rooted in the science of how the body and brain react to pressure and stress and offer a practical and non-fluffy guide to maintaining and building your resilience.  It’s a relevant subject for most people in business today but the need for support in this area has increased given how COVID-19 and working from home is affecting people’s focus and resilience. \nThe contents of each session are as follows:- \nSession 1 (2:15 hours)\nThursday 27th May 10:00 am – 12:15 pm \n\nHow the body and brain respond to pressure and the effect of the stress reaction. How the brain’s survival mechanism produces ‘lower order’ emotional reactions that can be unhelpful in the workplace. The balance between good v unhelpful stress.\nReframing your thinking. Understanding the ‘thinking traps’ we sometimes fall into and how you can step back\, strip out the emotion and re-assess and handle pressurised challenges. A group exercise where delegates analyse a previous situation.\n\nSession 2 (1:45 hours)\nFriday 28th May10:00 am – 11:45 am \n\nThe science behind\, and benefits of mindfulness and breathing techniques\, including scientific evidence of how they impact the brain and the stress reaction.  A review of the apps and other tools available.\nKeeping your focus and limiting distraction. Why technology makes us butterfly between tasks and keeps us in a state of ‘continuous partial attention’.  Practical ideas on how you can change the way you work to stay focused and be more productive.\nExercise\, relaxation\, sleep and diet. How other aspects of your lifestyle impact the way the body responds to pressure and can help build resilience.\n\nAbout the trainer\nPaul Phillips spent many (stress-filled) years working in agencies including Ogilvy\, FCB San Francisco and most recently 14 years at VCCP.  During his last 8 years at VCCP\, he founded and ran the specialist healthcare agency VCCP Health\, where he first got interested in mental health.

SUMMARY:Managing Pressure and Building Resilience
DESCRIPTION:About the course\nThese two sessions\, which will be delivered via Zoom on consecutive days\, are rooted in the science of how the body and brain react to pressure and stress and offer a practical and non-fluffy guide to maintaining and building your resilience.  It’s a relevant subject for most people in business today but the need for support in this area has increased given how COVID-19 and working from home is affecting people’s focus and resilience. \nThe contents of each session are as follows:- \nSession 1 (2:15 hours)\nThursday 29th April 10:00 am – 12:15 pm \n\nHow the body and brain respond to pressure and the effect of the stress reaction. How the brain’s survival mechanism produces ‘lower order’ emotional reactions that can be unhelpful in the workplace. The balance between good v unhelpful stress.\nReframing your thinking. Understanding the ‘thinking traps’ we sometimes fall into and how you can step back\, strip out the emotion and re-assess and handle pressurised challenges. A group exercise where delegates analyse a previous situation.\n\nSession 2 (1:45 hours)\nFriday 30th April 10:00 am – 11:45 am \n\nThe science behind\, and benefits of mindfulness and breathing techniques\, including scientific evidence of how they impact the brain and the stress reaction.  A review of the apps and other tools available.\nKeeping your focus and limiting distraction. Why technology makes us butterfly between tasks and keeps us in a state of ‘continuous partial attention’.  Practical ideas on how you can change the way you work to stay focused and be more productive.\nExercise\, relaxation\, sleep and diet. How other aspects of your lifestyle impact the way the body responds to pressure and can help build resilience.\n\nAbout the trainer\nPaul Phillips spent many (stress-filled) years working in agencies including Ogilvy\, FCB San Francisco and most recently 14 years at VCCP.  During his last 8 years at VCCP\, he founded and ran the specialist healthcare agency VCCP Health\, where he first got interested in mental health.

SUMMARY:Webinar: Virtual Pitching – A Perspective from Procurement
DESCRIPTION:Whilst 2020 is now in the past\, most of us can agree that some aspects of virtual pitching maybe here to stay.  We all had clients that never stopped in lockdown but most us experienced a short hiatus in pitch activity in March and April of last year.  But business moved on and pitching went virtual. With 6 months+ under our belt now\, what have we learned? what worked well? What did not work so well and what can be done to improve the experience for both agency and client. \nModerated by Paul Morrissey\, a Senior Commercial Director in health\, this interactive session will explore these questions with a panel of leading procurement managers from both inside and outside of the Pharma industry.  Please join us in this free webinar where we will explore these questions from the procurement teams that organise and run these events every week within their own businesses.
