Using tech to boost careers

Published

on

Kay White coaches and mentors experienced career women showing them how to take responsibility and control for their own career direction.

I introduce women to strategies which men seem to do naturally which boost their success at work – raising their profile, going for opportunities and not waiting to be asked, negotiating salaries and bonus levels, asking for what they want. With +20 years of my own experience in corporate and insurance broking, I know a thing or two about the ways (and the ways not to) get ahead at work – without selling your soul.

I’ve written 2 bestselling books: The A to Z of Being Understood and It’s Always YOUR Move and regularly speak to audiences inside corporations and at events. I host my own Events all focussed on motivating and inspiring women to step up at work and stop holding themselves – or allowing themselves to be held – back.

I show women how to use purposeful language and words like ‘subtle accessories’ to embellish and highlight what needs to be said:

• Get your point across so people actually hear you (not just nod at you)

• Connect (and disconnect) with people quickly and easily, when you want to

• Motivate people to respond to your requests (without banging the desk!)

• Say what needs to be said (without being offensive or witchy)

• Break through the ‘sound barrier’ and be heard as you express yourself.

Cyber security shifts redefine critical infrastructure in APAC

Cyber security evolution prompts redefinition of critical infrastructure in Asia Pacific amid rising digital threats

Cyber security evolution prompts redefinition of critical infrastructure in Asia Pacific amid rising digital threats.

In Short:
– Cyber security incidents in Asia Pacific redefine critical infrastructure, expanding its scope beyond just industrial machinery.
– New strategies emphasise visibility to protect crucial sectors like banking, finance, and telecommunications from cyber threats.

The rise in cyber security incidents in Asia Pacific is reshaping the definition and protection of critical infrastructure. New digital and operational technology risks are prompting stakeholders to reconsider conventional beliefs that critical infrastructure is primarily industrial machinery behind high fences.

Michael Fisher from Garland Technology discusses this evolving landscape. Critical infrastructure now encompasses essential services such as banking, finance, and telecommunications, expanding beyond traditional definitions.

The convergence of IT and operational technology (OT) networks increases cyber security risks. Many OT services were not designed with cyber security in mind, leaving them vulnerable to cyber attacks. Industries most at risk include telecommunications, banking, finance, and utilities, where any disruption can significantly impact society.

Increased Visibility

Fisher highlights that traditional cyber security alone is insufficient to secure these infrastructures. Effective protection requires a new approach focused on visibility. Garland Technology’s mission is to provide visibility to upstream cyber security platforms, eliminating blind spots.

Governments and businesses must recognise their roles in combatting cyber threats. Australia’s Security of Critical Infrastructure Act is a step towards increasing corporate responsibility in recognising critical infrastructure and ensuring compliance with security measures.

Electric vehicles revolutionise last mile delivery with significant growth expected in Australia as sustainability gains momentum.

In Short:
– The shift to electric vehicles for last mile delivery is increasing, especially in Australia, driven by government initiatives.
– Challenges like costs and charging infrastructure hinder EV adoption, but advancements improve efficiency and sustainability perceptions.

The shift towards electric vehicles (EVs) for last mile delivery is accelerating globally, with Australia expected to see significant growth. Companies and retailers are increasingly adopting greener solutions, driven by supporting government initiatives.

Joe Sofra from ANC discussed the current state of the last mile EV market. He noted the global market is valued at around $30 billion and could grow three to four times over the next eight years.

Challenges such as cost and charging infrastructure remain significant. Currently, over 100 EVs are on the road, but sufficient charging stations need to be developed, including home and public options. The unique requirements of commercial vehicles further complicate access to these facilities.Download the Ticker app
