Knowledge transfer is so important.

Dear people connected to me, For a beautiful, symbolic trophy for networking and social capital, I am one of the shortlisted by La Red Consultancy, celebrating its 20th anniversary. The award is called Give-and-Take 🏆 with a Pay-it-Forward philosophy behind it. As next step candidates would need to map out their network, reflect on network strategy and management system - an insightful exercise. To start this process I thought to kindly invite you as my connection to Endorse me for "Networking" as a skill. That is, --> if you believe this skill really applies --> if you believe our connection is/can be mutually beneficial e.g. for referrals, sharing information, advice, career support, linking organisations, internships, research consultancy projects etc. This is just an idea I had to get started on self-assessment on how to maintain and manage connections, give-and-take etc. Wishing a cheerful and carefree remainder of summer. Warmly, Sarita #givenandtaketrophy #payitforward #sociaalkapitaal #laredconnect #laredatwork #netwerkendwerken  #netwerkorganisatie #LRnetwerk

As of yesterday, Influo and Klara Verzele are officially part of the advisory committee for the research study "Branding via Social Media & Content Creators". The most important project is the SMI barometer, in collaboration with Comeos (see also www.smibarometer.be), podcasting, and metaverse. We are curious to see what insights and results this will produce for the Belgian market! Most figures and data found are not always 100% applicable to our market. #research #advisoryboard #influencers #contentcreators

𝐖𝐞 𝐝𝐨𝐧’𝐭 𝐨𝐟𝐭𝐞𝐧 𝐬𝐞𝐞 𝐜𝐨𝐦𝐩𝐚𝐧𝐢𝐞𝐬 𝐭𝐚𝐤𝐞 𝐚𝐥𝐥 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐬𝐭𝐞𝐩𝐬 𝐭𝐨𝐰𝐚𝐫𝐝𝐬 𝐚 𝐬𝐮𝐜𝐜𝐞𝐬𝐬𝐟𝐮𝐥 𝐂𝐚𝐦𝐩𝐚𝐢𝐠𝐧. 𝐖𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐚𝐛𝐨𝐮𝐭 𝐲𝐨𝐮? So glad that Mediahuis gets it 🤓 ! And that’s why we blended into their team seamlessly! 1. 🔍 𝐂𝐨𝐧𝐝𝐮𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐐𝐮𝐚𝐥𝐢𝐭𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐯𝐞 𝐑𝐞𝐬𝐞𝐚𝐫𝐜𝐡:  Instead of making assumptions about how to help young people access 'news,' they simply ask them why they do or don't have a subscription and test campaign ideas with them. We appreciate it when someone else has already handled that important step in the process qualitatively. Thanks, Bart Warlop! 2. 💡 𝐓𝐡𝐞𝐬𝐞 𝐢𝐧𝐬𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐭𝐬 𝐢𝐧𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐦 𝐢𝐦𝐩𝐨𝐫𝐭𝐚𝐧𝐭 𝐬𝐭𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐠𝐢𝐜 𝐝𝐞𝐜𝐢𝐬𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬 about subscription details, user flows, and, of course, tactical ones like copywriting on the pages. It's invaluable for us to have such insights to shape the communications and online journeys. 3. ✅ 𝐕𝐚𝐥𝐢𝐝𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐌𝐚𝐭𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐬:  Mediahuis places a premium on validation before launching. We completed it in just 2 days, so the project wasn't delayed. This step was instrumental in dispelling any lingering doubts and ensuring our copywriting and flows are crystal clear and user-friendly. 😍 Mediahuis has an outstanding team that successfully launches campaigns while 𝐤𝐞𝐞𝐩𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐚𝐮𝐝𝐢𝐞𝐧𝐜𝐞 𝐢𝐧 𝐦𝐢𝐧𝐝. Kudos to Katia Debusschere, Lies Callebaut, Laura Renders, Koen Meeusen & many others! This is the way every project should go ❤️. Check out the result of this collaboration below 👇

This year I've written portraits of some female rolemodels in MICE for Meeting Magazine. After the pandemic, some experienced leaders left the industry. When business started to pick up, many young people joined and it brings a breath of fresh air. But it also brings challenges. The organisation of congresses and business events require KnowHow, attention to detail, understanding a diversity of corporate or institutional protocol, great handling of logistics. (etc, etc, as the king would say!) Underneath all of that, it requires emotional intelligence to deal with cross cultural issues. That kind of experience can rarely be learned at home or at school. In this series of portraits, powervrouwen (female leaders) give an insight into their paths and their succesformula. It was a pleasure to find that most powerwomen remain open and approachable. The gatekeepers-climate, found around some male dominated powerfigures, was almost completely absent. Could this be a signal of a bright future, where corporate communication needs not be like political powerplay? It looks like the democratisation of the work environement is starting to flow upstream. The interview with Dineke Philipse is a great example of a powervrouw who sets her example quietly but firmly, simply by living in truth to her own believes.

Very proud that my article on the treatment of ETS emission allowances under EU financial regulation got published in the latest edition of TRV-RPS : Revue pratique des sociétés - Tijdschrift voor Rechtspersoon en Vennootschap! In the article I provide a general overview of rules and obligations applicable to market participants that wish to hold or trade allowances - taking into account the recent updates of the Emissions Trading System. This overview demonstrates that the common thread of allowances-specific rules is a plethora of information and reporting requirements. These apply to various parties, at various times, by different standards and to different recipients (and with overlap in subject matters). It also illustrates how the trading system and the framework in which it operates are moving targets, and subject to constant change (with some points already having been updated since the cut-off date of the article...). With some recent price drops and ongoing speculation on how the system will perform in the future (see ao https://lnkd.in/eMMnZtBA) , the topic remains relevant as ever. Always happy to discuss!
