After a challenging few years w/grief & loss, im delighted to be back. I cant wait for the next TLA women in tech event on Advancing Digital Trust - Join us! www.linkedin.com/posts/luxfor...

The ONS published new stats on online vacancies last week www.ons.gov.uk/economy/econ.... These are newly advertised jobs on UK websites. Since 2023, new job postings have been well below pre-pandemic. I've added on right the percentage change since the same month (November) pre-pandemic.

With my ‘talent’ hat 🧢 - a few thoughts on the recent UK gov reports released yesterday. Theres no magic wand but a hokistic view I hope will help support much needed change #talent #digital #data www.linkedin.com/posts/luxfor...

Delighted to see a govt advisor saying that no NHS Trust should buy the next gen of the EPIC patient record system until it's fully interoperable with the likes of the NHS App.

Such robust market shaping is essential to join up services for patients.

I'm sorry, but how is 1996 nearly30 years ago? Surely all these #totp tunes were just a couple of years ago? They all seem very modern to me 😬

Massive away win for the little fella.

I’m surprised not to have seen more main headlines re the Australia social media ban for U-16s. Coming into play end of ‘25 it will be fascinating to monitor. I have mixed feelings as a mum. Good to safeguard but what else will rise to replace these channels?

I’m looking at alternative options to Mailchimp for our TLA Women in Tech newsletter and community. Beehiiv and Convertkit have been suggested. Any recommendations/thoughts v welcome 🙏🙏🙏 #newsletter #community

Just closed Companies House NED roles! What’s struck me is 1.Hoping more public sector boards consider digital NEDs (like CH with Digital & Data/AI) and 2. Hope that we see more C-level digital leaders take on impactful, first-time NED roles vs trad portfolio NEDs. What do you think? #NED #Digital

Very useful run down of the new Data Bill: amberhawk.typepad.com/amberhawk/20...

Lots that remains problematic (recognised legitimate interests is my particular bugbear) and (I think) almost no chance of getting any changes now.

Help! I’m keen to connect with founders and angels who may be disproportionately affected by the new legislation re high net worth individuals and impact this will have on our community. TLA WiT have an event 6th March & would love to have voices represented! Recommendations v welcome!! TIA

Back to work reflections:
1. Don’t forget the basics: - quality sleep, movement & hydration. Thought I was winning on Mon, Tues it went out of the window & I felt worse for it.
2. Small wins count
3. Block out time in diary to get things done vs autopilot react
4. Purpose - watch this space!
