Our next lunchtime learning session will hear from IFT Fellow Robert Griffiths, followed by a Q&A, chaired by Charlotte Doyle of Shoosmiths.

Robert has been a Restructuring Adviser at KPMG, Corporate Finance Adviser at Deloitte, VCT Investor at Aberdeen Asset Management, Business Support banker at RBS and, since 2013, an Independent Turnaround Director. At our 2021 National Awards he took home the awards for both Community Impact and Not for Profit Turnaround of the Year.

Robert will be using his experience having sat in a variety of ‘seats around the turnaround table’ to talk through his thoughts on how to get the most out of meetings. He will concentrate on how to get difficult messages across in challenging situations and managing expectations that are not realistically achievable. The focus will be from his time as a Business Support banker, with themes and messages relevant to a wide variety of situations for bankers, advisors and lawyers.

This event if for the IFT Next Community. IFT Next is aimed at professionals who have identified turnaround and business support as their long-term career pathway. Typically, these professionals will have established themselves at a management level within turnaround and restructuring and are now looking to build upon their profile and network.

This webinar will take place on Zoom between 12:15-13:00. Please email info@the-ift.com to register your interest.
