It's August, which means summer is on the wane here in the Northern Hemisphere and the humidity levels are topped only by the percentage of emails that come back as "out of office".

If you're at your desk, it's time to get ready for the busy period ahead - the end of the calendar year. (And if you're reading this on your phone while on holiday... please leave it in your inbox until you're back!)

Two meaningful steps you can take right now to prepare for the autumn are to examine your training calendar and to get a clear view of where you stand against industry benchmarks for your operation. Jinfo consultants can help you with both.

Round out your training calendar

Support your team with tailored workshops on:

• Strategic planning
• Executive-ready communications
• Holistic portfolio management
• Workflow optimisation.

Claire Laybats can help you decide what fits your needs and add workshops to your next budget or Jinfo Subscription order.

Get a clear view of where you stand

Join an upcoming Community session based on our Research Focus, "Benchmarking information roles - Jinfo models of excellence". Discuss structure, operations, customer base and capacity with other information managers in your sector:

• Finance-focused session, 13th September
• Manufacturing-focused session, 20th September
• Professional services and legal-focused session, 11th October.

Exciting things coming

At Jinfo, we're also ready for a busy autumn, and we're excited to share with you soon:

• The results of our latest research on news and current awareness
• Further improvements to our popular market landscape reports
• Our growing customer engagement team, ready to learn more about what you value and need.

It's a fast-moving world, and we're always looking for inspiration. If you have a great idea for improving Jinfo, let us know.
