Yesterday, our teams across London, New York and Auckland came together to support #Movember, raising funds and awareness for men’s health. From bake sales to ping pong tournaments, colleagues around the world held fundraising events to mark International Men’s Day. 💡 Why Movember? The statistics are sobering: 3 out of 4 suicides in the UK are by men. Movember is a critical campaign to change the face of men’s health, tackling #mentalhealth challenges, suicide prevention and more. With nearly two weeks left in our campaign, our colleagues have so far raised an incredible £2,500, which will be matched by LMAX Group at the end of the month. A huge thank you to Patrick Bartle, Managing Director at LMAX Exchange, for spearheading this initiative, and to all our colleagues taking part for their amazing efforts.

LMAX Group’s Chief People Officer, Aaisha Knights - Ihediwa FCIPD, joined a dynamic panel discussion with Abigail Wilmore (FCIPD) Founder and CEO, People Flow and Mariah Danielle Jaquelin Pedersen moderated by Sumona De Graaf yesterday at Future of Work Europe 2024. Here are some of the main takeaways on how businesses are adapting to meet the needs of today’s workforce: 🔊 Hybrid is here to stay - flexible, hybrid work environments are critical in 2024, but the office is still essential for building social connections, on-the-job learning and boosting job satisfaction. Balancing remote work with meaningful in-office time is now a competitive advantage. 🔊Wellbeing is paramount - employee well-being has taken centre stage, with increased sick days showing the impact of burnout. The panel emphasised the need for supportive work environments to foster high engagement and performance. 🔊Work is global and diverse - a one-size-fits-all approach no longer works. Upskilling managers to navigate this complex landscape is key, as they play a vital role in maintaining agility and adaptability in their teams. 🔊Prioritising HR wellbeing - with HR teams often carrying a heavy load, the focus on wellbeing should extend to CHROs and their teams, ensuring they’re supported amidst the growing demands of their roles. #FutureOfWork #EmployeeWellbeing #HRLeadership

🌱🎨Last week our Strategic Partnerships Team, led by #ESG sponsor Simon Maisey came together to breathe new life into a well-loved, yet weathered stretch of wall at Hornimans Adventure Playground. Since 1969, this free playground has been a vital community resource for young people aged 5-16, providing after-school clubs, holiday programmes and inclusive support for children with special needs, or at risk of school exclusion. Our team transformed the playground's entrance into a more welcoming environment for the young people of North Kensington. A huge well done to everyone donning the suits for a great local cause. #CommunityImpact #TeamBuilding #Volunteering
