Come with Hayley on a journey from desk-bound office dweller to sleeping in a tent at -42 degrees in the Arctic, and spending over 14 hours in cold water swimming across the busiest shipping lane in the world. Along the way Hayley will share some mindset tools that served her well then on expeditions and even better now as Managing Director of two companies. Hayley's session will support and inspire you. She'll cover:

  • If you don't ask you don't get - whether it's asking of ourselves or of our workplaces
  • Overcoming Imposter Syndrome - how to give yourself more credit and use your influence for good
  • Spin-it - how to rebrand your in-house counsel job in your mind and how that can spill out into how other individuals and departments view and value you too
  • Why fear is normal - the easy option is never satisfying, and courage is your special power

Whether you've got lots of digital nomads looking for adventure alongside the day job, or people crossing borders to work in the sun, in the mountains or by the sea, we're still navigating our way in the new ways of working. These bring opportunities for businesses as well as new risks – how people are employed, workplace rights and employer duties, social security and tax implications. How are in-house counsel finding solutions that work for people as well as their companies?
