Welcome to the PRmoment Podcast.Today we're chatting with 3 Monkeys Zeno UK managing director Jo Patterson about the encouraging trend of female leaders occupying more of the big PR agency roles in the UK.When Jo and I talked about this in our pre-show chat it got us thinking and here is a non-exhaustive list of top female PR agency leaders in the UK:We've got Jo at 3 Monkeys Zeno, Jo-ann Robertson at Ketchum, Jo Carr at Hope&Glory, Nicola Todd at Ogilvy PR, Pippa Arlow at Smarts, Ruth Kieran at Cirkle, Ruth Allcurch at WE, Sian Morgan at Cow, Sharon Bange at Kindred, Rebecca Grant at BCW, Ali Maynard at Manifest, Cath Taylor at Taylor Herring, Angie Moxham at The Fourth Angel, Kate Stevens at Axicom, Georgina Blizzard and Nicky Regonzonni at The PR Network, Mandy Sharp at Tin Man and Emma Kane at SEC Newgate, Fenella Gray at Porter Novelli and Bibi Hilton at Creative Access.And to be clear there are loads more I could mention - but you get the point. There seem to be more female leaders in top agency positions than there have been in recent memory - perhaps than there has ever been before. And one of the things Jo and I will talk about on the show today is the potential reasons for that.For those of you that are not aware 3 Monkeys Zeno has a fee income of £9m in the UK and 80 employees. Zeno started out as Edelman's conflict shop but has grown into a global agency with a fee income of about $150 m. About 70% of Zeno's revenues are in the US.Jo became the UK MD of 3Monkeys Zeno in October 2020. Previously she was UK MD at Porter Novelli and a board director at Red.Zeno bought 3 Monkeys in 2016. I always think of Zeno as a fairly new agency but for any PR agency history buffs out there, it was founded in 1998.Before we start do check out our latest free-to-attend webinar “The State of Social 2023: Channel Disruption, Influencer Growth and The Great Data Integration Challenge.”Thanks as ever to the PRmoment Podcast sponsors The PRCA. Here is a summary of what Jo and I discussed:3 mins Jo talks about why we're seeing more women PR agency CEOs.“We're (women) still only tracking at about 40% for leadership roles.”7 mins Jo talks about the benefits of female leadership traits in a progressive working environment.“It's the people you surround yourself with… charismatic leaders who are prepared to stand up and shape their organisations…and having the freedom to do that.”10 mins We've probably seen a rise of misogyny in society. There seems to be an upward trend of obnoxious macho culture.13 mins How do we make sure that in PR we don't lose those gains that we've made?“Greater protection for the challenging life stages that people go through”“Enshrining policies into governance”“Openness and confidence go hand in hand”17 mins Jo talks about the role models that have helped her in her career - Lesley Brend at Red, Fenella Gray at Porter Novelli and Barby Siegel at Zeno.“I like working with good people regardless of gender”20 mins How is the Zeno business doing both globally and in the UK?“About 50% of our work now is global”21 mins In the UK 3 Monkeys was known for its consumer work, how has that evolved since the acquisition?23 mins You are the first leader of the business in London who wasn't part of the original 3 Monkeys team. Has that been an advantage or disadvantage for you do you think?25 mins When an agency like Zeno buys an agency li

The speed of change in digitisation is ever-increasing, but not all Directors feel at ease with new, digital ways of working in their boardrooms.  However, boards simply must adapt as digitisation does not stop at the boardroom door.  Maddie is a Chartered Secretary who has supported various companies, from FTSE 100 to small private companies. In her current role as UK Managing Director for Computershare Governance Services, she leads a team of Company Secretaries who support listed and private companies to maintain compliance and enhance their governance.  Some of the key takeaways of the conversation include: "We have become more used to virtual meetings… it's not as contrived as it perhaps seems"The pandemic has forced virtual meetings to become everyday occurrences.  Most boards know these bring increased efficiency and reduced cost, but Maddie Scrafton believes that the quality of virtual conversation depends on how willing board members are to embrace it.  She acknowledges the difficulty of creating a natural group dynamic when people are not physically in the room together. Solutions typically include more formal routes, such as additional sub-committees or mid-meetings between more formal meetings, to ensure ongoing discussions in a more relaxed, social way.  However, more innovative or creative solutions have been found in some virtual boardrooms.   Maddie explains how one company pre-recorded presentations, enabling members to focus in the boardroom on the issues raised rather than the presentations themselves.  Sabine also describes one board that served lunch to all members at the same time, simulating eating together. "You need robust debate, and it helps to be in the room" The jump to the virtual world is not always appropriate, and movement toward a hybrid model is becoming increasingly common.  Transactional and "business as usual" decisions are ideal for virtual meetings, however for subjects that might benefit from more challenge, such as strategy or year-end results, in person, 'in the room' meetings will still be better. "It is important for board members to have a consistent understanding of the terminology and meaning of technology" Boards are now more aware of technology and technical terminology. However, although some are increasingly 'tech savvy,' not all boards benefit.  Digital portals may be the standard in the boardroom for larger or FTSE-100 companies. Still, smaller companies may be unaware of the benefits, reluctant to implement, or simply not have considered how technology can help with their working processes.   "We should be making communication simpler, not more complex… Just because you can do something and make it more complex doesn't mean you should" Technology moves quickly, and boards may need to use external advice or board training. Still, many technologies may actually be easy for directors to use at the front end but laborious behind the scenes.  Maddie describes the increasingly complex tasks portal technology can do, such as minute templates, providing market information, and chat functionality.  In practice, very few companies are using even a fraction of this capability, so there is a huge amount of gain still to be realised from technology in the boardroom.   Don't forget to subscribe never to miss an episode of the Better Boards Podcast Series.

Create a Better Work Environment as an Authentic Leader with Clare Clough It's International Women's Day! What better way to commemorate this day than by celebrating our true and authentic selves? As leaders, it can be challenging to be completely authentic in the workplace — that applies for all of us, not just women. We fear that revealing too much of ourselves might invalidate us. However, showing your authenticity and vulnerability can be good for others and your business! So how exactly can we be a more authentic leader?  In this episode, Clare Clough joins us to talk about improving your work environment by bringing your authentic self. We discuss how you can look after yourself and others. Clare also shares the lessons that made her a stronger leader and her absolute secret to success. If you want to learn more about the key to creating better work environments, then tune in to this episode. Here are three reasons why you should listen to the full episode: Discover how being an authentic leader can improve your work environment and grow your business.  Learn how to maintain energy and resilience for yourself and others. Find out Clare's absolute secret to success.  Resources Visit Pret A Manger's website for freshly prepared food and organic coffee! Check out Clare's favourite Pret coffee, Oat Flat White.  Try out Angela's favourite Pret coffee, Coconut Flat White. Coaching with Angela Episode Highlights [03:02] Clare's Top 3 Proudest Moments First, Clare is proud of going to university and having a clear path by pursuing a Food Technology course. Second, she's proud of being appointed UK Managing Director at Pret A Manger despite not coming from an operations background. Lastly, Clare is proud that their business could bounce back from the pandemic's challenges.  [13:41] How to Be an Authentic Leader Listen to your co-workers. The only way to learn about people is to listen. Create an environment where people are comfortable with being authentic and vulnerable. Connect and empathise with people to be a more effective leader. [19:03] Maintaining Energy for Yourself and Others Your reserves of resilience can only take you so far. Find that balance of conserving energy and putting it in the right places. Looking after yourself enables you to look after others.  Be thoughtful and sensitive to what people need, but also recognise when to apply pressure or expectations. Cultivate a culture of openness in your work environment to allow positive peer-to-peer support. [24:25] Being a Stronger Leader and a Better Human For Clare, being in a job that she loves allows her to perform well. She enjoys the job she's currently in before thinking about the next opportunity. Ask for feedback and learn from mistakes.  Do not wallow on your mistakes: this can be counterproductive and detrimental to your well-being.  Conversely, accept that mistakes are going to happen to make it easier to bounce back from them.  When faced with adversity, finding a way to go forward is the best thing you can do. [30:38] What Traits to Look for in Other People Look for people who can challenge your thinking. Clare likes people who are different from her and can fill her blind spots. She also looks for people who are similar to her and can play more of a cheerleader role. [32:29] Keeping Your Mental Health in a Good Place Working at home can blur work-life boundaries, so Clare doesn't bring her phone in the bedroom. Be kind to yourself by listening to yourself. Forgive yourself if you weren't able to follow your plans for the day.  [34:06] The Best Coffee Clare's favourite coffee is Pret's Oat Flat White. Angela is a decaffeinated Coconut Flat White drinker.  [36:43] The Absolute Secret to Success For Clare, authenticity is the absolute secret to success in different avenues of life. Being yourself brings better results more quickly in whatever situation.  5 Powerful Quotes [09:40] 'It was also hugely significant because I was really the first person who hadn't come from a pure operations background that had held that role previously. So I felt really proud when people sort of talk to me about what you've broken a bit of new ground here as well.' [10:49] 'The most important thing was to just get close to the people in our shop. [14:07] 'I wanted to create an environment for everyone in practice, to authentically be able to ask for help and stuff that they didn't know to know that it was possible to grow your career.' [21:33] 'So one of the values that I've always held dear to me, is always to treat people how you would like to be treated. And I think I've pulled on that a lot during the last year and, and tried to be thoughtful and sympathetic to people's circumstances or where they are. . . we've all been through the curve at different times at different speeds for different reasons' [26:56] 'I still do that I still sometimes have that sort of plunge to a depth of despair of I'll probably need to beat myself up for a week before I come up for it. But. . .you have to wonder what value that adds to you. And actually, it's detrimental, isn't it?' About Clare  Clare Clough is Pret A Manger's UK Managing Director. She oversees over 400 shops and is responsible for leading Pret in its ambition to turn into a multi-channel business.  In 2017, Clare led the development of Pret's new brand concept, Veggie Pret.

Joyce Weng is UK Managing Director Bulgari. For Joyce, working at Bulgari is “faith”, as she called it. After a visit in France where she was fascinated by the colors of the bags and jewelry in a Bulgari store, she received a phone call to be interviewed as PR Director of the Maison in Taiwan. Later, back in China, she continued her way through the company and finally became UK Managing Director at Bulgari. One day, in 2009, Joyce was entrusted with the responsibility of organizing a Bulgari exhibition at the China Museum in Beijing, the largest in the country. It was a real challenge to convince local authorities to let her and her team expose more than 600 museum pieces of Bulgari for months. Despite the many challenges they faced, the exhibition was a success. She has learned a lot about herself, about how to stay calm despite the obstacles, how to persist. Today, every time she remembers this story, she can't help but smile and be proud.

Richard and Sam first met at a business breakfast event in late 2017, but it was in mid-April 2018 when this conversation was recorded at Sam's house in East Sussex. They talk about the growing role of analytics in story-telling and education and the art of using numbers to move people - even when it is known the numbers are unreliable.

This week on the PRmoment podcast I’m pleased to welcome Bibi Hilton, UK managing director at Golin. Here is a flavour of what Bibi and I discuss: Why she has stayed at one agency for so long Why autonomy is important in a networked PR agency Why she likes working for large networked firms Bibi identifies the biggest changes in PR in the last 16 years - and it’s not just spray mount and fax machines! Why the fundamentals of public relations have not changed Bibi marks PR out of 10 for how well it is performing against its marketing peers The lessons 6 years on from restructuring the people within Golin from generalists to specifically skilled communities within the business. In Golin’s case these communities were Strategists, Creators, Connectors and Catalysts. Why Golin’s specialist model lead to the firm having a more diverse workforce Why the high cost of living in London is partly responsible for the talent shortage in PR Whether finding talent has become easier as a result of their specialist structure  Why Bibi believes there is still a lack of opportunities for women in business What are the legacy issues that contribute to the gender pay gap How returnships are a key driver in reducing the gender pay gap Why returnship schemes in PR have not scaled as quickly as hoped What can PR firms do to make flexible working easier Why research suggests that there is a gender paygap even in the early stages of a PR career Why Bibi has never set up her own PR firm Why Bibi believes she experiences a greater breadth of work by working at a large agency Why busy CEOs like Bibi volunteer for groups like Women in PR
