Don’t get us wrong - there’s a time where the images available out there exactly fit your needs, better than any images you’ve taken yourself. We are big fans of the @microsoft365 stock images available when building a SharePoint site or PowerPoint presentation. However, we try to always use our own images on our website and any collateral that we produce. Why? Because it’s part of who we are - bespoke, authentic, unique, and proud of our independence. #OwnImages #Independent #Proud #Website #LapisConsulting

@sophie_hussey_ recently had the pleasure of writing an article for @manageengine providing a practical explanation of everything you need to know about the hashtag#ITIL4 Service Value System (SVS). https://www.manageengine.com/products/service-desk/itsm/itil-4-service-value-system.html One of the starting points for me when talking anyone through the SVS is asking the seemingly simple question: ❓ What does value mean to you? closely followed by: ❓ How do you measure value? We won't spoil the read, but here's a quote from the article: 🗣 "Value is not always financially driven. Positive employee and customer experience are also important measures of value." Have a read of the article and let me know what you think in the comments👇 hashtag#ITIL hashtag#ServiceValueSystem hashtag#WhatIsValue hashtag#Article hashtag#ManageEngine hashtag#LapisConsulting

A day of industry in the kitchen, preparing for one of the two workshops we're running running at @servicedeskinstitute 's #Spark23 conference in October. During the "Mentoring your way through your career" workshop we will be spend some time talking about values. The output from today's activities was creating, laminating, cutting up & edging the "values" cards. Definitely an afternoon of channelling our inner creativity & love of stationery! (We may have had a little help from the family too 😀) If you've not already signed up to attend the conference, check it out: https://www.sdiconference.co.uk/ We hope to see you there! #Conference #Creativity #IndustriousAfternoon #Workshop #SDI #Mentoring #Mentorship #Learning #Preparation #LapisConsulting #ComeJoinUs #SeeYouThere

Starting the day right in Malaga. Beautiful sunrise, beautiful country, beautiful people. It’s the last visit with our client in Malaga but very excited to see everyone and explore the city some more. #malaga #workingabroad #spain #client #consulting #sunrise #beautiful #happy #consultant #lapisconsulting

Beautiful wintry sunrise on the way to London

Something to read on the train to London. Alongside our version of a coffee (cold drinks for the win!) as it’s very early. #reading #travelling #london #train #morning #work #consulting #fiction #NonFiction #books #ClientVisit #LapisConsulting

Bye bye Malaga, it’s been a blast as always. #workingabroad #client #consulting #fun #espanja #spain #malaga #lapisconsulting

Whether you’re looking at your target operating model or the services you offer, it’s important to know your value chain proposition(s). We’re reading this book: Operating Model Canvas, to see how it approaches TOMs and how it defines value chain propositions. #TargetOperaringModel #reading #Working #Learning #ValueChain #consultancy #lapisconsulting #ThinkingThursday

The Christmas lights in Malaga were fantastic. The camera doesn’t capture the twinkly lights very well but… wow! 💙🎄🥳

When you’re on a work trip and you have the perfect accessories… In all seriousness, this bag was bought from a fantastic shop in Alnwick, Northumberland where they celebrate iconic women from the north of England. This is from the @thenorthernangels website “…celebrating women who helped shape and forge some of the freedoms and choices we have now - not just the right to vote, but the spirit of adventure and career choices too…” https://www.thenorthernangels.co.uk At Lapis Consulting Services our director, Sophie, is a mentor in the Reed Women in Technology Mentoring Programme where supporting other women in their career is something she is very passionate about. Check out @thenorthernangels & support a fantastic business with an excellent USP. #womeninbusiness #angelsofthenorth #supportingothers #lapisconsultingservices #alnwick #checkthemout
