  Google's work culture has gained legendary status, earning both admiration and satire. Setting aside the mythology, Schmidt and Rosenberg attribute Google's success to its founders, Larry Page and Sergey Brin, who created an environment attracting top-tier talent. 
  The company employs a rigorous hiring process to select exceptional candidates, seeking brilliance and well-rounded individuals. From executives to entry-level, everyone works in shared office spaces, fostering collaboration across roles and disciplines. Alongside the famed Google perks like pool tables and well-stocked kitchens, these amenities aim to encourage diverse interactions that spark collaboration and creative thinking. 
  Google's management structure is designed to facilitate the free-flowing expansion of ideas, resembling a web more than a pyramid. Emphasizing minimal hierarchy and bureaucratic procedures, employees are encouraged to take action and challenge ideas constructively. Every employee publicly lists personal objectives and key results to clarify goals and priorities.  
  Failure is viewed as a learning opportunity, promoting a proactive approach. 
  This management style leads to spontaneous and successful results.  
  For instance, when irrelevant ads surfaced on a Google search, Page addressed the issue promptly without calling a meeting. This approach allowed a group of engineers to devise a solution over the weekend, demonstrating the company's agility and responsiveness.

  Roger Windsor’s stories of life as, first, a naive student at vet school, then as a junior vet in general practice, and finally as a senior member of the Veterinary Investigation Service runing a laboratory in Africa, certainly give James Herriot a run for his money. His vignettes of animal woe and human frailty have enduring appeal, and the story of setting up such a valuable service in Botswana, and helping to build that country’s agricultural and forensic veterinary resources, is truly fascinating. With his particular talent for veterinary detective work and more general eye for a character sketch and a tall tale, Windsor will keep even the most animal-averse readers turning the pages of this hilarious and touching autobiography.

  Risk Management and ISO 31000 -...

  Risk management is a primary concern for any organisation. Its significance has only increased since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic. Organisations need to prepare for all types of threats, both probable (a server breaking down) and improbable (the office being flooded), to ensure that their operations can survive and adapt to continue with BAU (business as usual) in the face of a disaster.
  Yet risk management isn't solely about preventing negative outcomes, it is also about an organisation taking a known risk to uncover new opportunities to improve the organisation. For example, the transition of employees to remote working could risk an organisation's security as an employee could connect their laptop to an unsecure Wi-Fi connection. However, as demonstrated in the pandemic, remote working helped protect employees as the risk of infecting one another with COVID-19 was reduced.
  Read this pocket guide to understand how:
  
  - Risk-based management can prepare your organisation for future threats and therefore help the success of a BCP (business continuity plan);
  - To identify whether the opportunities gained from a 'risky' decision can outweigh the perceived threat;
  - The principles of ISO 31000 can help your organisation develop a framework for its approach to risk management;
  - The guidelines of ISO 31000 can be interwoven with controls in other standards such as ISO 27001 and ISO 9001; and
  - The organisation must continually review its approach to risk management to stay prepared for the latest threats.
