Conversations with Andrew Andrew Johnson

Glazing for Efficiency The windows are the eyes of a home but we rarely consider the efficiency of glazing in a home unless we have experienced the benefits or are aware of the information.

When looking at buying, renovating or building consider the impact of your windows, check out:

We all want a comfortable home and windows are an essential part to consider in achieving this when looking at buying, renovating or building a home.

• research thermal properties of glazing systems (i.e. single & double etc),

Windows are great conductors and transfer energy easily into and out of the home, and this costs us money and comfort.

“Up to 40% of a home’s heating energy can be lost and up to 87% of its heat gained through windows. Improving windows’ thermal performance reduces energy costs and greenhouse gas emissions.”

40 | Hepburn 40 | Hepburn

• the buildings design (i.e. how does its orientation, design & layout affect the windows performance) • locations climate (i.e. humidity, sunshine, wind & temperature),

• building materials (i.e. thermal mass & insulation used) There are many factors that make up the energy efficiency of a home, and windows are important to consider as you enjoy the view to the outside. Windows also provide heat gain in Summer & in Winter heat loss, so anything you can do to maximise their efficiency is worthwhile, to improve your comfort and can save you money. Growing up in Mount Beauty and skiing at Falls Creek, and working at the State Electricity Commission of Victoria for 13 years together with some work with CertainTeed Double Glazed Windows in Melbourne made me really appreciate the benefits of solar passive design and energy efficiency.


“ Some o instanc f t he simple st e a n d e n i s t h at I c a n t h i ng s I n ot i ce i n a j oy t h e s v i e w o i t c l o s e to t home h ut side with d ouble w i t h o u e w i n d ow w g ithout t the h eat i ng fe el i ng l a z i ng fo r s y s te m d w o r k i n i s co m fo r t g ove r t i m e.”

Hepburn | 41


Have a good look at the windows in the home you’re considering as they have a significant impact on the future comfort and enjoyment you will experience during your ownership. Its great if an existing home already had double glazing, but if it does not consider the ways in which you could improve their efficiency and your comfort (i.e., pelmets, curtains, outside shading, any draughts around the window frames). When building or renovating, the added investment of installing double glazing, should save you on such areas as sizing of the heating or cooling systems, window coverings not to mention your ongoing heating and cooling bills.

“Passive design reduces or eliminates the need for auxiliary heating or cooling, which accounts for about 40% (or much more in some climates) of energy use in the average Australian home.” I love looking out the windows in a home, letting in light and feeling connected to the outside environment, and if I can choose a home or investment with double glazing, I will do so to enjoy the energy savings, cost savings, benefit to the environment and increased comfort.

Interior Design with Irina Framing your interior Irina Mazalova

First impressions count and everyone loves a warm greeting and a friendly smile. It makes them feel welcomed and appreciated. Your entrance hallway is your opportunity to greet your guests with that same warm welcome. It is their first encounter to the inside of your home or business. Your hallway entrance is a business card for your home. This is the first impression for all your visitors. This is a WOW point for all your guests.

Great design is important for homeowners and business owners alike. It takes only a microsecond for anyone entering your home or business to take in what they see and form an impression about you or your business. One of the perfect way to give a good vibe – keep this area clean and welcoming. Here’s my 6 tips to create a warm and welcoming impression: •

Hide all your shoes and bags into the closed wardrobe (even better if it is buildin).

•

Hang a large size mirror – everyone will thank you for have a chance to quick selfcheck before they go out

•

Keep a stool or two or a poof – to be able to sit down.

•

Brighten and light up this area - nice bright light makes your guests feel welcome.

•

Hang your favourite art to help to reflect your personality – it is an invitation to your guests to come in and find something interesting.

•

And last one – keep your hallway clean and fresh; this is only one chance to impress your guests!

Now you too, can start an amazing presentation at home! Irina Mazalova is a qualified Interior Designer and owner of Line Studio. Irina offers advice and planning for residential and commercial projects. Her portfolio covers a variety of styles and colour palettes.

Your Money, Your Wealth, Your Estate Jacqueline Hodges

We all long for a healthy life in our retirement and enough funds in retirement, enough funds to enjoy ourselves, and some left over for our family. If you can relate to this, then you need consider how you wish to live in your retirement, establish your goals, start planning for your future, and decide how to share your estate among your family and love ones after your death. If you haven’t considered your retirement yet, now is the time to start planning. Because the earlier you start the more likely you will have plenty to enjoy in your later years.

We are fortunate in Australia, that we have guaranteed future retirement savings in the form of superannuation. Those of us we are employed, have the benefit of our employers pay at least 9.5% of our wage into our superannuation fund. If you are selfemployed you, your superannuation savings may be more sporadic than you desire. Shaping your future can be confusing and not only involves navigating a myriad of rules, regulations and tax laws but also managing the family dynamics. You should seek the help of your financial team but as an introduction you will need to establish a retirement plan and an estate plan.

Inspiring International Women

Oprah Winfrey There was a period when she was the Queen of day time television and the host of her own talk show. Farewelled in 2011 over a two part episode, after 25 years The Oprah Winfrey Show may be gone but our memory of Oprah Winfrey and the support she offered to her audience, to her guests and to women in general has not diminished. Oprah is as recognisable today as she was when she was just beginning to take her stand.

“Think like a queen. A queen is not afraid to fail. Failure is another stepping stone to greatness.” Hepburn | 63

eveloping the Team

You’re an effective leader, you direct and delegate your work to you team. You understand the unique strengths of each of your team members. After all you’re only as good as the people around you. This might be your perfect scenario but how do you know that your team are performing at their best? Have you identified their strengths? Do you understand the skills required to perform their jobs? How do you develop the team?

66 | Hepburn


Team Development

Starts with You Leaders who are capable of building and developing effective teams have a critical advantage over others. When delivered correctly, team development can create an atmosphere that encourages cooperation, teamwork and trust within the team. But this development has to start with you. Shaping good behaviour within the team starts with role modelling, and good self-development will also help refine the skills you need to help develop others. Start by building trust so you can inspire your team to take ownership of their roles. Show you are invested in their success and on their side. Turn weekly meetings into learning opportunities. In fact, all your interactions with the team, from reviews, to catch ups, to weekly meetings, are opportunities to develop your team. How are you integrating a development mindset into your regular meetings? Try asking questions. Involve your team by asking good questions.

Your Leadership Approach As a manager, you will choose different leadership approaches to respond to different team members and situations according to the experience and knowledge of the team member and the level of complexity of the situation. When approaching a given scenario, you may choose an approach that is coaching, mentoring, training or counselling. Understanding which approach is the right one for a given situation equips you to help your team.

Your teams’ success equates to your success. Your ability to inspire and develop people is critical to not only your own future, as you climb up the leadership ladder, but also to the business objectives and goals.

Passion 1. Any powerful or compelling emotion or feeling, as love or hate 2. A strong or extravagant fondness, enthusiasm, or desire for anything 72 | Hepburn


For Love or Obsession I love it, I just love it! I truly love it! When you are blinded by emotion, is it truly love or has it become an obsession? If the very thought of that someone or something preoccupies your mind to the occlusion of all else, then it’s more likely to be an obsession. But how can you really know if it’s an obsession, how can you tell them apart, and what can you do to control it?

Hepburn | 73


Novuelle Cuisine 1. The art of preparing, serving and eating rich, delicate and appetising food 2. The study of the relationship between food and culture
