The Taoiseach insists forward planning is taking place with regard to healthcare bed capacity in the Midwest. It's over a month since the Health Minister announced up to 25 step-down beds would be brought on stream in Clare between July and September of this year but the tender for this project remains open. No clarification has been given from the Government or the HSE as to why Cahercalla Community Hospital was initially named as the location of these beds despite the facility claiming to have no knowledge of any such plans. Responding to Scariff Independent TD Michael McNamara in the Dáil, Taoiseach Simon Harris admits increased capacity and improved governance and management are of pivotal importance in this region.

Frank Kopfinger, the Head of Investor Relations and Strategy at LEG Immobilien SE delivers an update on the company's H1 2023 Financial Results, spotlighting some noteworthy highlights: Operational Strength: The first half of 2023 has been marked by impressive operational numbers, leveraging the robust dynamics of the German housing market. Influenced by the significant supply-demand imbalance, this sector witnessed heightened demand for affordable rental apartments, where LEG is commanding. Rent and Earnings Performance: LEG reported an appreciable 4.3% growth in rents on a like-for-like basis and 4.6% on a reported basis. This increase is attributed to new constructions, which outweighed the impact of asset disposals. Vacancy Rate: Maintaining their robust approach towards asset management, LEG achieved a reduction in their vacancy rate, bringing it down further to 2.6%. This indicates almost a full occupancy, showcasing effective asset management. AFFO Boost: The AFFO (Adjusted Funds From Operations), a pivotal metric, witnessed a striking jump to €118.6 million, marking an almost 50% increase. This surge is credited to robust financial results, benefits from high energy prices in 2022, and significant reductions in company expenditures. Portfolio Valuation: Despite stellar operational performance, LEG's portfolio faced a devaluation of 7.4%, influenced by the market's adjusting transaction multiples and higher cost assumptions. This comes after a 4% portfolio devaluation in H2 2022. Financing & Liquidity: Frank emphasises the company's well-balanced financial strategy. LEG continues to gain from past low-interest rates, reporting an average interest rate of 1.4% for its debt and an average debt term of 6.1 years. The Loan to Value (LTV) ratio has risen slightly to 46.6%, but Frank assures stakeholders of the company's continued ability to refinance upcoming maturities. Guidance for 2023: Frank reiterates the company's guidance for the AFFO, standing at €165 to €180 million, buoyed by higher rental incomes and green energy sales. He also underlines their commitment to environmental, social, and governance (ESG) targets. LEG's strong H1 performance paints a promising picture for stakeholders, reaffirming the company's commitment to delivering sustained value. ▶️ Other videos: Elevator Pitch: https://seat11a.com/investor-relations-elevator-pitch/ Company Presentation: https://seat11a.com/investor-relations-company-presentation/ Deep Dive Presentation: https://seat11a.com/investor-relations-deep-dive/ Financial Results Presentation: https://seat11a.com/investor-relations-financial-results/ ESG Presentation: https://seat11a.com/investor-relations-esg/ T&C This publication is for informational purposes only and does not constitute investment advice.

This week we talk about the forward planning we all do for our author careers. Because we're all so different here in the SPA, we all plan differently, and have different goals. But that means there will be nuggets of gold for everyone in this episode! We go through what it means to forward plan in your author business, why it's important, what we think about when we do our planning, and how to actually get it down in a format that works for you.

What's the chance, do you think, of New Zealand taking a long-term view and coming up with a 50-year plan for roads? I'd say it'd be something close to diddly squat, going by the level of commitment and foresight that seems to be going into roading at the moment. Not that it's stopped the outfit representing trucking firms, the National Road Carriers Association, from dreaming the dream and coming out today and saying it wants two things from the Government. First, an annual commitment to spend whatever it takes to repair every piece of roading that needs fixing. We're talking potholes and all the other hazards out there. And second, it wants to see a 50-year plan for roading in New Zealand. On that one, I think 50 years is a bit much because who knows what the roading needs are going to be in 50 years time. But, generally, I'm right behind them. Because for too long now, the approach to roading in New Zealand has been pretty haphazard with what appears to be cosmetic repairs and not much more. I know we've had some new highways and things - in some places, anyway. But that's often been dependent on the government of the day and its enthusiasm for big roading projects. Which is why the Road Carriers Association wants a plan. So that governments of the day know there is a long-term commitment that can't be changed because of political ideology. And it's no coincidence that it's come out today and said this because with the changes going on at the Beehive at the moment, every Tom, Dick and Harry is pushing for their area of interest to be prioritised. Where the trucking firms have a very good case, though, is the link they're highlighting between the state of the roads and the financial impact it is having on all of us. We're not just talking about those of us who end up with damaged cars because of potholes and other hazards. We're talking about the fact that 93 percent of goods in this country are delivered by truck. Which means that, if a truck gets damaged, we all end up paying the price for it. So, with the new Prime Minister saying he wants to make life cheaper for us, the trucking firms have taken the chance to point out that the appalling state of our roads is hitting pretty much everyone in the pocket. And it's calling for change. I think where things get a bit murky, is the fact that roads aren't just the responsibility of central government. Local councils are responsible for a lot of the roading network too. So this annual commitment the trucking firms want to ensure all roads that need fixing get fixed, couldn't just rely on central government. Local government would have to be in on the act, as well. But, either way, I'm with the trucking companies on this. As for the long-term roading plan that they're also calling for, I think something like a 10-year plan would be more realistic, and certainly more likely to get political support. Because governments come up with 10-year plans for all sorts of things. Cutting the road toll. Getting rid of smoking. Why not a 10-year plan to make sure that the roads we have in the future are what's needed and, more importantly, up to scratch. Because, at the moment, they're not up to scratch. Waka Kotahi has admitted as much recently with its plan to reduce speed limits all around the country. It says 100 kph isn't a safe speed for our roads. But what it actually means, is that our roads aren't safe enough for 100 kph. And there is a difference.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Clare County Council is urging people to plan ahead to ensure a healthy and greener lifestyle in the New Year. Their five step guide includes reducing food waste, bringing a reusable water bottle to work, creatively upcycling, using less chemicals in the home and to quit tobacco littering. It is estimated around 10% of all global greenhouse gas emissions can be attributed to food waste. Clare County Council's Environmental Awareness Officer Karen Foley says planning ahead on grocery shopping can reduce waste and costs.

The Russian war in Ukraine and Europe's current energy crisis are inextricably linked. Recent crisis-response techniques in the European Union appear to have been successful for the continent, resulting in just enough stored energy to survive through the coming winter. Looking ahead, medium- and long-term policies targeted at diversifying energy sources will be vital for economic and environmental sustainability in Europe. This week, we spoke with Max Gruenig, a climate and energy economist and Professor at Georgetown's Walsh School of Foreign Service. Our conversation touches on the energy crisis, Europe's most recent efforts to combat it, and Ukraine's future in the EU. The Europe Desk is a podcast from the BMW Center for German and European Studies at Georgetown University in Washington, DC. It brings together leading experts working on the most pertinent issues facing Europe and transatlantic relations today.

Abstract: Altered decision-making is a defining component of addiction, but there is little evidence whether these alterations affect multi-step planning in individuals with alcohol use disorder (AUD). We used a recently developed planning task in a cross-sectional approach to test the planning performance of 30 individuals diagnosed with AUD relative to 32 healthy control subjects, both sampled from the general population. To gain insight into the factors underlying behavioral performance, we inferred the parameters of a reinforcement learning agent performing rational planning, using a Bayesian inference scheme. This approach allowed us to differentiate between separate factors determining planning performance, e.g., planning depth, decision noise, and bias for certain action choices. Contrary to our hypothesis, we did not observe reduced planning depth in AUD subjects. Instead, our results show a small effect in the opposite direction: Healthy controls were slightly less efficient in the planning task. Importantly, subjects in the control group allocated less time for planning than AUD subjects, potentially indicative of motivational differences between groups. The group difference in planning depth persisted when controlling for both reaction times and general cognitive performance, albeit at a lesser magnitude. Altogether, our results do not favor the view that mild-to-moderate alcohol use disorder in general-population individuals generally involves impairments in cognitive tasks requiring forward planning across multiple steps.

You know that feeling when you want to get out and make things happen because you have not been productive. As you get ready to go you don't know where you are going and what you are to be doing? By the time you are done planning, you have run out of time. This is what we call BackPlanning. How do we prevent this from happening.When you start Backward planning is just that... backwards! Backward planning is NOT a thing that is effective.To be forward planning - You must plan for it! Here are some ideas to forward plan:Understand your customers/prospects and anticipate their needs.Most customers/prospects ask the same questions and have similar concerns.Take minimal time to prepare for different scenarios. When the right time hits, you are already prepared for the moment.If you are not fully prepared, you are at least close to the end and save yourself time.Please let us know how you are planning for the future:Mike@TheSellingPodcast.comScott@TheSellingPodcast.com

Visit charlottesvilleunited.org to learn more.Charlottesville served with suit against the Comprehensive Plan The city of Charlottesville has been formally served with a lawsuit that seeks to overturn the Comprehensive Plan adopted by City Council last year. Seven anonymous parties filed the suit in Charlottesville Circuit Court in mid-December arguing that the city did not follow state law when adopting the plan. (visit the code) However, the city had not yet been formally served with the suit, which requires a response from the city. Interim Deputy Communications Director David Dillehunt confirmed receipt of the suit on Friday, meaning the city has until April 8 to make a response to the court.The suit argues four points of failure, one of which is an alleged lack of “designation of new and expanded transportation facilities… that support the planned development of the territory covered by the plan.” The anonymous property owners include people who own land on Rugby Road, Altavista Avenue, Davis Avenue, Locust Avenue, and Rugby Avenue. They claim the Future Land Use Map is too specific in nature and argues the additional density called for in the plan is affecting property values. “For example, a house located at 507 10th Street NW, which is currently assessed at $315,000, is being marketed at $485,000 due to its development potential based on the higher density prescribed in the plan,” reads paragraph 16 of the suit. There are actually two houses at that address, and both and the 0.19 acre property sold for $475,000 to Bloom Hill LLC, which has an address in Somerset, Virginia. The transportation argument claims that rather than writing a new transportation plan, the plan adopted in November 2021 recycles previous plans such as the 2015 Bicycle and Pedestrian Master Plan and the 2016 Streets That Work Plan. “Despite radically upzoning all of the real estate in the City, which will result in significant population increases, the Plan fails to include transportation infrastructure improvements to support the increased density,” reads paragraph 22.The suit also alleges that the city failed to provide public notice that a vote would be held after the November 15, 2021 public hearing. The Comprehensive Plan was the second achievement of the Cville Plans Together initiative, following on the heels of an affordable housing plan that Council adopted in March 2021. While the lawsuit makes its way through the legal process, staff in both the city’s Neighborhood Development Services Department and consultant Rhodeside and Harwell are working on the zoning code. The next step in the process is release of an assessment of whether the approach they are taking will yield the desired results. Tree and Planning Commissions discuss loss of Charlottesville treesVirginia State Code assigns the task of overseeing the Comprehensive Plan to the Planning Commission. Earlier this month, members of the Tree Commission urged Planning Commissioners to consider the importance of woody perennial plants. “Our tree canopy is declining at an increasing rate,” said Jeffrey Aten, the vice chair of the Tree Commission. “We have good intentions and are planning for a robust urban canopy in our Comprehensive Plan. But we believe more needs to be done to ensure this is the case as we build for more affordable housing and adjust streets to be more friendly for pedestrians and cyclists.” The city is finalizing a tree canopy study that appears to indicate the total tree canopy is at 40 percent of Charlottesville’s 10.2 square miles, down from 47 percent in 2008. The most recent report is based on data from an aerial survey conducted in 2018. Aten said that there are improvements that could be made to the city code to protect trees. “We believe that there are code issues that we can work with the Planning Commission on revising and updating,” Aten said. “Development in the city has been happening per code and staff is enforcing code but we believe the code does need to change to help preserve some existing high value trees and to really incentivize developers to work with the city to keep those trees and or plant new ones when existing ones must be removed.” Tree Commission Peggy Van Yahres said her group also wants to make sure there is better protection for trees during construction and greater costs to disturbing a public tree such as oaks on Garrett Street that were recently removed to make way for the redevelopment of Friendship Court. “In Richmond, they have an ordinance when a developer is allowed to take down a public tree they have to pay into a fund for more planting around the city and this can result in hundreds of thousands of dollars,” Van Yahres said. “Those oaks would be conservatively estimated at $25,000 a piece so eight times 25 would be $200,000!”Van Yahres said the Tree Commission wants the zoning ordinance to be updated to make sure trees are considered a vital asset. That means maintaining requirements that buildings be set back from the property line. The Standard on West Main Street is an example of a building constructed right to the sidewalk and public realm. “Some people think that means you’re going to lost a lot of land,” Van Yahres said. “We’re not talking about huge set backs. Ten feet, fifteen feet.”The Tree Commission also wants to be able to look at site plans for large projects like Friendship Court. Commissioner Rory Stolzenberg said during the code review, he wants consideration of ways to plant more trees in the right of way of streets by reducing space for cars.“And I wonder if we can look at our rules to make it make more sense to be able to fit trees in front of buildings even without increasing set backs by using that right of way,” Stolzenberg said. Commissioner Jody Lahendro said the city could learn a lot from the University of Virginia regarding the treatment of trees. “They’ve been treating their ash trees for many, many years now to save them,” Lahendro said. “They’re adding trees all the time. They have an arboretum committee that reviews any proposal to remove a tree. Has to be approved. They have two arborists on staff.” Bill Palmer works in the Office of the UVA Architect and sits on the Planning Commission as a non-voting member. He acknowledged that there has been canopy loss associated with at least one major construction project at the Emmet-Ivy corridor.“There was a landscape of trees there that is no longer there,” Palmer said. “We’ll be putting them back but trees take a long to grow. But the end result thirty years from now will be much better than what was there before and also meet UVA’s mission.” If you want more on this topic, go watch the Tree Commission’s Codes and Practices Subcommittee on Charlottesville’s streaming media portal.

However, Dowell joined Commissioners Hosea Mitchell and Liz Russell in voting against the proposal, which also required a special use permit for additional density and a critical slopes waiver. The public hearing for all three had to be held a second time, as city planner Matt Alfele explained at the March 9 Planning Commission meeting.“In preparing to move the application forward to City Council it was discovered one of the tax map parcel numbers was mistyped in the public ad,” Alfele said. “To ensure accuracy, all three applications have been readvertised and returned to the Planning Commission for action. No information has been changed or been updated in the application materials.”As was the case in October, the developer will contribute $48,000 to construct pedestrian improvements in the Fifeville neighborhood and 28 percent of the units will have some affordability provision for at least ten years. Civil Engineer Justin Shimp is working on behalf of property owner Lorven Investments. “Twenty-eight percent in total affordable, which is eight units,” Shimp said. “Of those, four of the them, the rent including the utilities is capped at the [U.S. Department of Health] fair market rate.” (learn more from HUD about fair market rent)The other four would be called at 125 percent of the fair market rate, which is the upper limit for a unit to be eligible to receive housing vouchers. The Comprehensive Plan designation has changed since the October 2021 review.“The Comprehensive land use map for this area calls for General Residential which recommends up to 2.5 stories in height, up to three units per lot, or four units if an existing structure remains,” Alfele said. This application would have four seven-unit buildings with some three-story and some four-story buildings for what Shimp called a sevenplex that provides bonus density in exchange for providing housing at a below-market price. That’s a basic tenet of the Affordable Housing Plan Council adopted in March 2021. “We ended up with buildings that are basically three stories in the front and then kind of three stories but with units in the attic that backfill and have units in the roof system,” said civil engineer Justin Shimp. “So, trying to keep it at that 30 to 35 unit building height.” Alfele had recommended denial of the rezoning in part because of the conditions on Valley Road Extended. “Valley Road Extended on the east side you have Rock Creek and on the western side you have a fully developed neighborhood with limited sidewalks and with parking,” Alfele said. “Any improvements to Valley Road for pedestrians and foot traffic would be a major undertaking and would remove parking from existing homeowners.” Only one community member spoke during the public hearing. Paul Benneche was concerned about the potential for Valley Street Road to handle additional vehicles.“By my count, I counted the houses on that road currently and this would seem to increase the total number of people on that road by 30 to 40 percent potentially,” Benneche said. “It just seems like that road is already not wide enough. It’s only about one and a half lanes wide.” Vice Mayor Juandiego Wade was not on Council when the matter was last before a joint  meeting. In the late 2000’s, Wade worked for Albemarle County as a transportation planner. “I’m trying to figure out from my planning days, even back then, $48,000 doesn’t get you much sidewalk,” Wade said, “Or is there a new way to build them cheaper now? What are we getting for $48,000? Why not $40,000 or $50,000? What’s magic about $48,000? Is it a formula or something?”Shimp said $48,000 did come from the formula that the city uses to calculate what a developer would pay if they got a waiver from having to build a sidewalk in front of their development. In this case, they are also building a sidewalk in front of the new units. “The site plan ordinance requires us to build our own sidewalks and then we would offer the money up for some improvement down the road,” Shimp said. “We talked last time about maybe something at the entrance of Valley Road Extended. That would be up to the city. We tried to make the proffer sufficiently vague so it could be used where in that neighborhood it made sense.” Commissioner Rory Stolzenberg said he supported the plan because it is an example of what should be built under the General Residential designation across the city. “There’s no buildings to demolish on this site so that’s a fourplex by right, and then we have provisions for bonuses at affordable housing,” Stolzeberg said. Stolzenberg said there are other thin roads that lead to cul-de-sacs such as Altamont Street in North Downtown. “People kind of manage and people walk in the street and then people slow down when they see them,” Stolzenberg said. Commissioner Liz Russell had a different interpretation of General Residential. “My take on the General Residential category is three units per lot with an additional bonus and we haven’t defined what that bonus is, but presumably it would be another unit,” Russell said. “So we have three parcels here and the max would be four units per parcel, twelve units max. And this is a proposal that proposes  no more than 28.”After some discussion, the vote was taken again and resulted in a 4 to 3 vote on both the rezoning and the special use permit, but Commissioner Hosea Mitchell did vote for the critical slopes waiver. The matter will next go to before City Council at a later date. The original plan pointed to a concept in the city’s 2016 Bike and Pedestrian Master Plan which showed a tunnel underneath the railroad track to what is now the University of Virginia’s Brandon Avenue precinct. The end of Valley Road Extended is only 250 feet away from an access road behind Bond House, one of UVA’s newest residence halls. Valley Circle is a few more steps away. However, there are no actual plans for such an underpass. Support the program!Special announcement of a continuing promo with Ting!

Rise to Thrive Show 262 Forward Planning JB

Forward planning for managers is an essential part of the job. The purpose of planning is to think through the steps we need to take to reach a goal, hopefully massively increasing the chances of reaching that goal and hopefully doing so quicker and more easily. The purpose of planning is so 1.            we don't let others down or damage relationships, 2.            we use as little time, energy, and money as we can while still achieving our goals, 3.            we know which steps to take when,4.            we can co-ordinate many people or moving parts5.            we take better advantage of business opportunities or avoid business risks6.            we can consistently deliver thus building our credibility and reputations within the organisations we work. Learn about 4 key areas to cover in any planning process, what to avoid and what to do. I also cover 5 types of forward planning that managers are likely to be involved in starting with strategic planning. As the timeframes and complexity reduce as you go into tactical planning and then operational planning, planning for a manager become easier.  One of the key steps for any planning process in business is to define the goal you want to get to. The goal should be specific and clear rather than vague and general. This will help your planning process. Another key one of the forward planning techniques we cover is to get the individuals that well need to implement your plan involved in the planning process. This helps them own the plan alongside you, thus significantly increasing the chances of the success of that plan.  Implementation of any plan is always the hardest part, so it makes sense to take all the steps possible to improve your plan to make its implementation as easy as possible while still achieving the goal you have set out. Enjoy your forward planning!

I spoke with Dr Lize Barclay about applied systems thinking. We touched on: systems thinking as a lens to look at the world and specifically for decision making, mental models, complicated vs. complex systems, key systems thinking tools, how to practice your systems thinking skills, the links with design thinking and futures studies, as well as gaming simulation. Lize studies emerging issues, trends and alternative future scenarios for business, places and spaces and map paths to adapt in order to thrive and not merely survive, often through simulations and gaming. On the 1st of December 2017 Lize joined the University of Stellenbosch Business School as Senior Lecturer in Futures Studies and Systems Thinking. Her current research explores gaming, cyberpunk, gentrification, hipster culture, gender, the 4th Industrial Revolution and indigenous knowledge systems. Previously she spent 12 years as lecturer in Town and Regional Planning. She has a PhD in Town and Regional Planning with a focus on the use of scenario-based gaming simulation in higher education. Lize has 7 years' experience working for local and provincial government, predominantly in Forward Planning. She also runs a boutique consultancy called Question Unknown Infinity.

The broadcaster and journalist and, as Jo calls her, “busiest b***h at the BBC”, Tina Daheley, surfaces after 10 years of presenting breakfast news for BBC Radio 1, BBC 1Xtra, and other channels. She takes a breather in the podcupboard with Jo and James to compare notes on covering this year’s Royal Wedding, not missing a single breakfast show (despite some very close shaves after team nights out), and moonlighting on the News at Ten and encountering Huw Edwards. And a podcupboard crush is revealed on the very same charming Welsh newsreader! And of course, there are some vital topics to discuss: so is it just Tina who’s addicted to the snooze button? Is it just James who’s not great at forward planning? And is it just Jo who’s not a “joiner-inner”? This week's episode was recorded on July 31 by James Williams.
