The Leader August 2023

Leadership in Transformation - We believe in a world where everybody is empowered to be their best self
Hi there,
?August has been a whirlwind of activity, packed with exciting events and remarkable achievements.
Our top-performing team members were treated to an unforgettable experience at the prestigious Hide Mayfair. A lavish lunch gathering served as a well-deserved recognition for their outstanding dedication and hard work. This lunch was great for the team to share insights, and bask in the success that they contribute to our organisation.
As we come to the end of year 4, the whole team came together to celebrate the accomplishments and milestones we'd achieved. The End of Year 4 Event and Awards Evening was a dazzling affair, filled with laughter, reminiscences, and recognition of our remarkable achievements. It's a testament to the collective effort that has driven us forward and propelled us to new heights.
Our commitment to corporate social responsibility (CSR) continues to shine bright. This summer's CSR initiative took the form of a daring challenge – the 15k and 5k Tough Mudder in Gloucestershire. With unwavering determination, our team members pushed their limits and braved the obstacles, all in the name of raising funds for Mind UK. This remarkable feat reflects our dedication not only to our own growth but also to the well-being of our community.?
August has indeed been a month to remember, marked by camaraderie, success, and a strong sense of purpose. As we step into the next chapter, let's carry forward the spirit of collaboration, innovation, and empathy that defines us.
Stay tuned for more exciting updates and events in the coming months. Please donate to our CSR fundraising initiative here: https://lnkd.in/eSN8yWqR

Featured Placement
Regional Procurement Director for the Americas (Consumer Goods)
We recently finalised a project placing a Regional Category Director for The Americas in a market-leading Food manufacturer. The client required an expert procurement professional with extensive knowledge in Ingredients and Commodities strategic sourcing. This project was particularly challenging as it had already been attempted by three recruitment agencies in the past, with a negative outcome.
Utilising our unique KPI-based assessment and leveraging our network in the American region, Morgan Latif was able to present a shortlist of candidates that no other agency had been able to contact previously. All these candidates were experts in strategic sourcing, even if they did not show this on their LinkedIn profiles. The shortlist was presented with our unique video-platform, allowing the CPO of the company to assess candidates quickly by analysing a short 5-minute interview in the shortlist presentation stage.
With two candidates reaching final stage, Morgan Latif assured that the position would be filled with a top candidate with the required soft skills and that was able to achieve the KPI’s set for the specific position.

Book
Essentialism: The disciplined pursuit of less
Greg McKeown
Our Client Consultant, Talis Humphries recommends this book.
?McKeown focuses on the philosophy and practice of essentialism, which is the idea of focusing on fewer things of great importance rather than spreading oneself thin across numerous tasks and commitments.
?The book emphasises the need to identify and prioritise what truly matters, both in professional and personal life, and to eliminate non-essential activities, tasks, and distractions.?
