AGM success
By popular demand, the BFPA & BFPDA’s AGM returned to the Institution of Mechanical Engineers (IMechE) in London on 8 May. Chris Buxton, present for the first time at the association’s AGM in his role as the association’s CEO, hosted the event, which attracted over 30 member delegates. BFPA president Tony Kay, and BFPDA Council chair Chris Blevins, presented industry update reports, which were followed by two well-received guest presentations. Marie-Anne MacKenzie, deputy director of the Department for Business, innovation & Skills gave a talk on the topic of company law and better regulation. She was followed by Giles Miskin, managing director of The Colour Works, who gave an enlightening practical insight into the world of psychometric analysis, a popular method of determining an individual’s personality, skills and attributes, as well as how different personality types can learn to complement each other better in the working environment. In addition to general association business and accounting issues, the AGM provided an opportunity for members to raise questions on how the association is run.Related stories
