It doesn't take a rocket scientist to work out what we're up to...
???Learn what makes people tick, not what they sell.
Episode 11 - Jacqui Hanbury
After spending 22 years at Festo UK & Ireland, through marketing positions to eventually being the Strategy Manager for North West Europe, Jacqui became an expert in the art of communication. Which led her to founding The Pathway Communication Company Limited, where she coaches business leaders and runs training courses on leadership, culture and strategic management, worldwide.

What have we been up to?
You saw my brain dump of a stand idea last week, so here's what the stand builder came back with. IF we can find 8 partners willing to inspire 21 thousand kids, we'll have an Engineers Insight stand at "The Big Bang Fair" next year!
A busy and stressful week this one. Building up to a big app update, clambering to get bugs fixed, feedback worked on, and marketing done. All whilst trying to find customers, film 5 episodes of the podcast and spend the day at an event.
I finally met Fiona M. on Monday to discuss everything BTEC, T-Levels, Engineers Insight, Enginuity and the podcast.
Then a catch up with Suzi Wynne FCIM & Matthew Foster to go through the new app feature and make sure we've not missed anything in version 1. More on this later in the week...
Tuesday was a similar catch up but with Jordan Hindhaugh & Thomas Barkes getting them up to speed on the upcoming release.
Then a meeting we've been trying to arrange for 6 months ?? - John Mitchell > CP Automation Ltd . CP Automation will be joining the EI movement, posting 10 of their products and sponsoring a podcast episode!
We're extremely grateful to BPX Electro Mechanical Co. Ltd for hosting us for the day on Wednesday, as we filmed 5 episodes of the Through the Eye podcast.
Here's 5 amazing guests to look forward to watching:
> Mark Staples MIET talk about being ?? on by horses.
> Fiona M. talk about the flaws in education.
> Ariel Wynn fashion model to marketeer, to published author.
> Martin Kidman, Ph.D. life as a global safety guru, and conducting an orchestra.
> Guy Collins talks about what it's like being the boss of 220 people.

And of course a shout out to podcast super producer Daniel Smith and Flux Drones .
Thursday was the Meet, Make, Manufacture event at MTC - Manufacturing Technology Centre , run by MTC Events and Andy Wylie .
Of course the first person in the room was my MTC companion Holly Scott-Donaldson ??
A ConeX Portal reunion with Angela Lawlor ?? , Katia Douglas & Vikki Townsend as well as meeting Rav Panesar MBA ?? for the first time.
I caught up with two old faces from Schneider - David Evans who I haven't seen for at least 5 years and Tom Quinton who I see more now than when I did working together ??.
My neighbour Glenn Wedgbrow , who we've somehow never bumped into each other in the wild, but always at The MTC ??.
And then had lunch (If you've never had lunch at The MTC, find an excuse to have one) with Al Ahmed and Cyle Hunter-Ogungbo putting the world to rights and trying to get Cyle to give us some of that Barclays money ????.
Then today... the plan was to launch the new app feature, but the app stores haven't approved yet! So, the POA is soft launch this weekend. All app users will have access to the new jobs tab as soon as the update is live. You will be able to search keywords, job titles and filter by postcodes (miles away etc). It's extremely easy to use. Find a job post, click the EI Green "Apply Now", attach your CV and the hiring recruiter contacts you directly. That's it.
I called into CV Technical LTD this morning to run through with the senior team, to make sure we're all on the same page > Thomas Barkes Jordan Hindhaugh Dan Rose Jay Hextall Cameron Stevens
We never thought we'd have jobs in EI, but it makes sense. We're building the definitive platform for manufacturing. Why not keep building in everything you need in one place.
