Your Forward Pack in Business In rugby, as in business, progress is made when everyone pulls together. A strong forward pack doesn’t just push forward—it protects, supports, and ensures no one is left behind. Every successful team needs a strong forward pack—driving the vision, creating opportunities, and providing the support to keep momentum. In business, that’s exactly what great advisory services do. By leaning on the expertise and strengths of others, you can navigate challenges, seize opportunities, and achieve your goals more effectively. Collaboration and trust are at the heart of it—just like in sport, it’s not about doing it alone but about working together to move forward.

Nail your face-to-face meetings with perfect timing: 1. Email the Agenda prior to sit down: Know why you’re meeting, so you can plan the right amount of time. 2. Quick Buffers: Similar topics? Allow short breaks (15-30 mins) to process the content but stay in the flow. 3. Longer Breaks for Switch-ups: Changing topics or teams? Give yourself 30+ mins to digest the meeting and reset. 4. Energy Check: Avoid back-to-back marathons; give people room to recharge. 5. Get Feedback: Ask for pacing input to keep meetings effective and energizing. Smart timing keeps productivity high and everyone on point! If you want a face to face with Adrian Morley or myself to discuss your SME just reach out Forward Pack Advisory Services

Running a business is like leading a group of ducks across a pond. If your ducks aren’t in a row—if operations, strategy, and communication aren’t aligned—your team will scatter in different directions, creating chaos and inefficiency. Each duck represents a crucial part of the business: **finance, marketing, operations, customer service, and leadership.** If even one of these is out of sync, the whole process slows down, leaving the business vulnerable to challenges. But when your ducks are in a row, moving in harmony, the business glides smoothly toward its goals, navigating obstacles with purpose and efficiency. Just like a well-organized group of ducks, a business thrives on **alignment, clarity, and coordination**—making the journey much more successful. 🦆💼 #BusinessAlignment #Leadership #Efficiency #Teamwork #Operations Adrian Morley Forward Pack Advisory Services Gary Cain

Friday thoughts…… I consider my self incredibly lucky that as a former professional Rugby League player with 17 years of elite level experience on the field, after 17 years and counting I’m happy to still embedded in this glorious sport my character is shaped by a career that was deep rooted in hard work, teamwork, resilience, and a passion for helping others succeed. Since transitioning in to civvy street and a ‘real’ working life from professional sport, I’m focused on using my knowledge of high-performance environments, problem solving skills, leadership, can do attitude and personal development to support individuals and SME’s in reaching their full potential. Whether in sport or business, I believe in the power of collaboration, integrity, and continuous learning. I’m always eager to share my experiences and contribute to meaningful projects, while continuing to grow alongside others. #SME #fundingandfinance #foreignexchange

All the best people I’ve played with, worked with and spent any time with all lead by example but in the workplace they have the behaviors, attitudes, and values you want others to adopt. Here are some key ways to do this effectively: Absolute Integrity - They’re honest and act ethically, even when no one is watching. Upholding moral values sets a standard for others to follow. Take responsibility - They’re accountable for their actions, both successes and failures. Acknowledge mistakes and work to correct them, showing that it's okay to learn and grow from challenges. Hard working - They are dedicated to the task by putting in consistent effort. Passion, work ethic inspiring others to do the same. Positive vibes - They’re optimistic and solution-focused, especially during difficult times. A positive attitude is contagious and can lift the morale of the entire team. Show respect and understanding - They treat everyone with respect, regardless of their position, and listen to their concerns. Empathy fosters a collaborative, supportive work environment. Prepared and in time - Time management is a balancing act but the best leaders have a good plan A but are flexible and can cope with the variables. Always learning - They encourage discussion and are open to feedback, actively seeking opportunities for personal development, and encourage others to do the same. You don’t have to have the captains arm band to be a leader try to embody these qualities, it motivates the team to emulate you, creating a more productive, positive, and cohesive work environment.
