SUMMARY:IR35 : Concerned about your status? What are the solutions? RECORDING
DESCRIPTION:This webinar is generously sponsored by Talkback Studio\, Nottingham \nFollowing on from the success of her last webinar to us\, Liz Norman of Elizabeth Norman International (ENI)\, will take us through the latest developments in IR35 regulation and outline what this means for us as small businesses. \nAbout IR35 \nIR35 legislation already exists within the public sector.  The government intended it to include the private sector from April 2020 but postponed it because of the pandemic; it’s now scheduled for April the 6th 2021. \nLiz Norman ENI\, and Tina Holt JT HR Solutions\, will talk about what the legislation covers\, the changes to the contract market that will result and possible solutions for individual contractors. \nAs the legislation still isn’t statute there is a very small possibility of further delay\, however most think it’s inevitable.  The cost to the government of delaying is £1.9 billion a year.  So now is the time to think what this means for you and the best way to approach working as a contractor moving forward. \nWATCH THE WEBINAR HERE  \n  \nLiz Norman – ENI \n \nLiz had a short career as a ‘market researcher’\, in truth more of a market analyst – there was confusion with job titles even then!  Working first for IBM\, part of a small market research team\, looking at whether IBM should go into the PC market and then for Media Audits (then a competitor of Ebiquity) conducting campaign analysis. \nLiz then joined a small marketing recruitment firm\, setting up their market research division\, before setting up ENI specialising in recruitment across the insight industry in 1989. \nWorking across a wide variety of clients\, including large manufacturers\, advertising and media agencies and a variety of research agencies\, ENI eventually branched out into international markets with offices in Asia and Australia. \nToday ENI’s recruitment is 80% permanent\, but the 20% contract and temp market is growing steadily with our longest established contractor working for us continuously now for five years.  ENI’s continues to work across a range of clients and countries.  We currently have contractors working for Samsung\, PepsiCo\, Kantar\, Relish\, Hall and Partners\, and 2cv. \nA member of APSCO the professional body representing the recruitment industry\, Liz has taken their legal advice as well as the advice of individual lawyers on IR35 and its implications. \nTina Holt – JT HR Solutions \n \nTina Holt of JT HR Solutions Limited is an HR Expert who for 20+ years worked within two major global oil and gas/technical engineering recruitment businesses as a Global HR Director.  In 2018 Tina established JT HR Solutions to bring the HR knowledge and expertise gained in a global recruitment business into the SME market.  JT HR Solutions work predominantly within the recruitment sector\, supporting SME’s who require HR support and guidance with their people strategy as well as their people related issues. \n

SUMMARY:ICG Training: Comfort and Delusion in Perpetuating Racism
DESCRIPTION:This session was kindly sponsored by Web Creator Suite and Teneo Translations \nTHIS SESSION TOOK PLACE IN DECEMBER 2020. A SHORT SUMMARY OF IT IS HERE.  \nIF YOU WOULD LIKE TO PURCHASE THE FULL RECORDING OF THE SESSION (£10)\, CONTACT LUCIE ON MANAGER@THEICG.CO.UK \n  \nChris Arning of Creative Semiotics Ltd  and Asif Noorani of Epiphany Productions\, will take ICG members through a session to encourage better awareness and empathy when dealing with issues around racism in their work and lives. Chris and Asif are communication professionals who come with a unique background – effectively they are both inside and outside of mainstream white British culture which means that they won’t duck the issues but will come at it with a nuance and sensitivity that transcends the unhelpfully polarised nature of mainstream media discourse. \nMore tangibly\, the uniqueness of the session will the fact they will weave together and share their own experiences\, and then ground these in a specialist knowledge of Semiotics and Behavioural Economics\, finally opening up the discussion for participants’ own experiences and thoughts. \nThe session will not just be educational but should lead to commercial benefits that include: \n\nBetter\, less biased overall decision making by overcoming Comfort and Delusion\nEncourage awareness across all aspects of business (clients\, colleagues\, respondents)\nHigher value derived from more collaborative\, diverse projects and organisations.\nEnsure more inclusive communication that caters to and attracts more diversity\nCan lead to the ICG publishing a diversity policy that shows its commitment to this.\n\nOur speakers will be setting out two hypotheses about how racist thinking becomes perpetuated in well-meaning people\, each rooted in an area of expertise. The Comfort Hypothesis\, rooted in behavioural economics and The Delusion Hypothesis rooted in semiotics.   What you’re getting in this session is the distillation of combined 40 years work in each of these areas. The speakers also bring their background and lived experience not only as British People of Colour\, but as private school educated insight professionals\, and self-employed consultants. Their methodology and approach will be challenging while constructive (not accusatory)\, conceptual but personal\, and above all human\, since no panaceas exist for this. \nThis will be more than just a webinar to raise awareness\, awareness is higher than it has ever been. Though there are no easy fixes though we will learn about immediate steps we can take to identify\, acknowledge and overcome the empathy gap\, address it and start to nudge behaviours. \nAbove all our speakers look forward to sharing knowledge but also learning from your experiences in and around this still taboo societal issue. \nChris Arning  \n \nChris the son of a Caribbean born mother and Anglo-Irish-German father born in Manchester. Chris is Brit-ish and grew up in London politically black but was raised culturally white\, which was confusing and which if he’d been born in another country might have led to the Presidency. In the UK he has had to settle for being a ‘poor man’s Richard Ayoade! Chris writes poetry\, does stand-up comedy\, runs Creative Semiotics\, teaches Contextual Studies and is a member of #HipHopEd. He has conducted semiotic studies on cultural identity for the BBC including for 1Xtra. He recently reviewed #BlackOutTuesday responses for trends house Canvas 8 and has been writing and blogging on race and representation since the #BlackLivesMatter movement. \nAsif Noorani \n \nAsif Noorani is the son of immigrant Pakistani Muslim parents.  Growing up in Manchester\, he managed to disappoint everyone by not becoming a doctor.  His lived experience of the  second-generation culture clash\, fed an appetite to embrace the unknown\, find patterns of meaning and share stories through film.  Asif heads up Epiphany Productions where as a behavioural economist and storyteller he has worked with organisations including NHS\, BBC\, Home Office\, Arts Council\, and the Digital Democracy Commission to explore and tackle diversity and inclusion challenges. The burning question in all his work right now is whether after the pandemic and George Floyd’s killing\, we will make good on our good intentions? \n

SUMMARY:ICG Webinar (Pre-Recorded): TSAPI - Your Questions Needed!
DESCRIPTION:Calling all ICG members to send questions (however challenging) to Matt Gibbs directly\, or ICG Manager Lucie (if you prefer to be anonymous to Matt)\, in order to shape the content of this pre-recorded webinar. Final deadline for questions – Friday 4th Sept. Webinar will be available to view on Monday 14th Sept. \nThe ICG recently helped launch a new initiative to create an API standard for Transferring Survey data – TSAPI.  Since launch ICG members have asked several interesting questions and generally wanted more information about the initiative.  The launch video can be viewed here. \nThe TSAPI initiative is currently in its first consultation period\, and Matt Gibbs (ICG member and core TSAPI team) is very keen to include independents and micro businesses in that discussion.  Matt will answer any questions ICG members have about TSAPI in an upcoming webinar.  Webinar content will be defined by ICG member questions\, so please send any queries and ideas you have to Matt or Lucie (if you prefer to stay anonymous to Matt) by Friday 4th September.  No matter how general or specific\, Matt will consult with the TSAPI team and answer as best he can. \nA webinar for everyone – not just for quantitative researchers \nThis session is not just for quant techies\, but should be of interest to everyone.  It’s an opportunity for us all understand more about the non-profit initiative\, to share our ideas\, and discuss how it might influence the future of market researching practice.  As Matt says\, from coders to clients TSAPI needs your ideas and support.  Everybody’s welcome! \nThe TSAPI initiative was launched globally on the 5th of August\, via the Australian National MR Conference\, in the UK via the Association for Survey Computing (ASC)\, the Market Research Society (MRS)\, Independent Consultants Group (ICG)\, and Research Live.  Then on US time via Quirk’s Media and publicised by MRweb. \nAbout Matt Gibbs \n \nMatt is Managing Director and Founder of Bayes Price – offering data connection\, analysis\, visualisation and insight to the market research and business intelligence communities. \nHe is keen to promote innovation and collaboration throughout the industry\, not least by participating in\, and helping to organise national and international conferences.  He’s an ICG member\, part of the core TSAPI development team\, a full member of the Market Research Society\, an active member of The Australian Research Society\, and sits as Vice Chair on the committee for the Association for Survey Computing (ASC). \nMatt combines a Masters in Sociological Research Methods with over 15 years’ experience in professional Market Research.  He enjoys merging established theory with contemporary technique\, finding solutions which offer more for less\, and is very keen to add to the conversation at any industry event with a good bar.  Should that conversation move beyond data and into the realms of music and/or cricket\, more’s the pleasure. \n Presentation slides/webinar recording will be available here by Monday 14th Sept  \n

SUMMARY:Making The Most Of Interpreters In International Research
DESCRIPTION:All too often in the market research industry\, interpreting is an underused  and undervalued tool in the market research tool box\, being seen as just a bridge to cover the language gap. The  process of finding and briefing an interpreters is also often patchy. \nIt can – and should be –  a whole lot more than this. Using the right interpreters in the right way can add significantly to your project. \nIn this webinar\, ICG member Iris Griffiths\, a qualitative market research consultant\, experienced conference interpreter and translator and a teacher of  interpreting and translation modules for universities and courses\, will take us through; \n\nhow to improve and optimise the quality of the interpreting in international research projects  when working with interpreters in-person\, remotely or in hybrid situation.\nThe best way of briefing an interpreter to make sure you make the most of the interpreter as a tool to get more insights for your market research project.\nInterpreting from the interpreter’s point of view: what impacts on the quality of the interpreter’s output.\n\nShe will also talk about  Simultaneous Interpreting (RSI)  and the changes in the interpreting industry which can be a benefit or a threat for market research projects. What are the advantages/disadvantages  of having an interpreter “live” at a viewing facility  vs. working remotely? There are many RSI platforms in the market that will enable researchers to get a bit more control of how they work with interpreters in the project. \nREGISTER FOR THIS WEBINAR HERE

SUMMARY:ICG Webinar: Accelerating your storytelling skills: How to transform research summaries into a captivating narrative
DESCRIPTION:This webinar is generously sponsored by Taurho Transcribes \nThis webinar  conducted by Insight Narrator\, a specialist in helping insight professionals create evidence-based stories. \n \nThe difference between insight and recommendations that stick and spread throughout the client organisation and just another interesting research report that sits on the client server has rarely anything to do with the quality of the work itself\, but the quality of how that work is communicated. That is why Insight Narrator are supporting the ICG community by providing this webinar on how to accelerate your storytelling skills. \nStorytelling regularly features on the must-have list of skills for research professionals and client wish-lists from their partners. Whilst great visualisation and use of multimedia in your project outputs can add interest and variety to keep your stakeholders engaged\, in reality it can be very time consuming to produce – time that we don’t often have if we want to meet our deadlines. \nIf you want to showcase the brilliance of your insight and grab stakeholder attention immediately\, as well as producing the story quickly\, you need to put your best story efforts into your executive summary.   In this 60 minute webinar Caroline Florence\, Founder and Director at Insight Narrator will share her secrets to creating a compelling narrative in your executive summary\, provide the anatomy of a great insight story\, and share a framework to help you to convert the narrative into engaging copy. \n \nREGISTER FOR THIS FREE WEBINAR HERE

SUMMARY:Upskill: Future-proof your market research career using semiotics
DESCRIPTION:This webinar is generously sponsored by Talkback Studios\, Nottingham – Celebrating 20 years of supporting the qualitative research industry. \nWe are delighted to have Dr Rachel Lawes presenting this important webinar. \nMarketing is changing. Market research is changing with it: this was true even before the pandemic. Clients think they can do their own research in-house. They are by-passing the traditional interviewer. They are no longer impressed with long market research reports\, they want quick answers. If you are a market researcher\, especially if you are an independent without the security of a large organisation behind you\, this can be very scary. How will you stay relevant and stay in business? \nThere are some bright aspects to this landscape. The marketing industry has become quite good at collecting ‘things’ (attitude statements\, videos of people’s homes\, photos of their possessions) direct from consumers using digital tech. But the question arises of what to do with them. Most brand owners don’t have a clue what to do with qualitative data\, especially visual materials. What’s more\, the ability to have new ideas about marketing strategy is never going to go out of style. Here is where you can solve a problem for the people who used to buy market research and are now doing it themselves. \nBut wait – where are you going to get this near-magical ability to find original insights in qualitative data that other market researchers can’t see? And how are we suddenly going to become experts on marketing strategy when the entire MR industry has traditionally been focused on discussing consumers rather than businesses? The answer is found in semiotics. It is not just a research method but a quite large set of tools for thinking and generating new ideas. Now\, for the first time\, there’s a book on semiotics written especially for marketers\, which takes you through the entire business cycle of semiotic research\, from conception to commercial application. It’s a self-contained course that anyone with a basic grasp of marketing can use to teach themselves and set themselves apart with robust skills. Best of all\, there’s no requirement to physically go out and spread coronavirus among consumers. \nAre you ready? The book “Using Semiotics in Marketing” will boost and future-proof your career in market research and this webinar\, developed exclusively for the ICG\, is where your journey begins. \nREGISTER TODAY\nAbout Rachel \n \nDr Rachel Lawes is a social psychologist specializing in the interface between individuals and consumer culture. She has supplied brand strategy and consumer insight\, using social psychology\, semiotics and discourse analysis\, to brands in 20 countries\, mainly via Lawes Consulting Ltd (established in 2002). Her academic career started with a PhD from Loughborough University’s internationally renowned Discourse and Rhetoric Group and recent academic positions include that of Principal Lecturer in Marketing at Regent’s University London. For more than 10 years she has convened the Advanced Qualitative Methods Masterclass for the Market Research Society in the UK. Her extensive publishing history includes over 40 conference papers at the annual conferences of the Market Research Society\, ESOMAR\, IIEX\, Qual360\, the Social Research Association\, QRCA (USA)\, AQR (UK)\, ASMRS (Australia)\, Social Intelligence World and many more. Her writing spans marketing industry trade journals\, academic publishing in psychology and market research\, and journalism. She is the author of some of the most well-known methods papers and case studies in semiotics\, including ‘Demystifying semiotics’ (2002)\, ‘Futurology through semiotics’ (2009) and ‘Rebranding Charmin’ (2011). She is recognized as one of the original founders of British commercial semiotics and is known for her engaging style and ability to make difficult concepts and theory accessible to non-academic audiences. Rachel is a Certified Member of the Market Research Society. \nRachel’s new book\, ‘Using Semiotics in Marketing’ (2020) is the first book to set out a step-by-step course in semiotics for marketers. It is available worldwide from Amazon and Kogan Page. \n  \n
