Make Conversations Count

Developing tools for confident, collaborative dialogue

The GFSB’s Women In Enterprise group will host its next breakfast event next Tuesday 21st April. It will be expertly delivered by Fiona Young and Sam Grimes who bring together almost 50 years (combined!) of employment law experience — and for once, they’ll be on the same side of the table.

In this rare joint session, they will share practical insights, real-life stories, and honest reflections on the highs and lows of workplace conversations.

Sam, a Partner at Isolas, has over 20 years’ experience advising businesses and organisations on employment law and workplace issues. She will explore the impact of poorly handled conversations, miscommunication, and the risks that can follow.

Fiona, a Consultant with Ramparts, has been a litigator for 25 years and a mediator for 12 of those, will focus on how to approach conversations positively — introducing practical tools and techniques to support more effective, collaborative and empathetic dialogue.

This engaging and interactive breakfast session is not to be missed. Supported and hosted by Isolas LLP, expect practical takeaways, real-world examples, and a fresh perspective on how better conversations can transform working relationships.

The GFSB has conducted a flash survey of its members concerning their experiences during the first two weeks of the new Treaty arrangements.

The Office of Fair Trading's latest Annual Report reveals record numbers of businesses, plans to simplify licensing through a new Business Act and fewer consumer complaints. GFSB's Business Support Manager, Kim Chang, breaks down what the proposed reforms, increased digital services and stronger enforcement could mean for businesses, and why the GFSB's role in shaping policy has been recognised.

What a year it's been! From the Treaty moving from negotiation to reality to AI, workplace pensions, business confidence and everything in between, this year's Thrive EDIT has helped members navigate one of the busiest periods in Gibraltar's recent history. Before we take a short summer break, Editor David Revagliatte looks back at the stories that shaped the year and thanks readers for joining us on the journey.

Could Gibraltar be missing a golden opportunity? GFSB Board Director Brian Ross believes the answer is yes. In this thought-provoking opinion piece, he argues that Gibraltar should consider a residency route for financially self-sufficient individuals, attracting experienced people with the wealth, expertise and international networks to strengthen our economy. Could this be the next step in keeping Gibraltar competitive?

For many SMEs, the success of the business has been built on the expertise, relationships and commitment of its owner. This entrepreneurial approach has been instrumental in the growth of many of Gibraltar's successful businesses. However, as organisations develop, dependence on a single individual can become a strategic risk.
