&lt;h5 style="font-size: 18px;"&gt;&lt;/h5&gt;

&lt;h5 style="font-size: 18px;"&gt;&lt;/h5&gt;

&lt;h5 style=""&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 14px;"&gt;Managing people has never been more challenging. Changing workplace expectations,&lt;br&gt;
hybrid working, technological advances, and an increasingly diverse workforce require&lt;br&gt;
managers to develop new approaches to leading, motivating and supporting their teams.&lt;br&gt;
This workshop explores the essential skills needed to manage people effectively in today’s&lt;br&gt;
evolving workplace. Drawing on evidence-based research and practical workplace&lt;br&gt;
examples, participants will examine how to build trust, communicate with impact,&lt;br&gt;
navigate difficult conversations, foster engagement, and develop resilient, high-performing&lt;br&gt;
teams.&lt;br&gt;
Designed for professionals with people management responsibilities, this session&lt;br&gt;
combines practical tools, self-reflection and interactive discussion to strengthen&lt;br&gt;
participants’ confidence and leadership capability, enabling them to respond effectively to&lt;br&gt;
the people challenges facing organisations in a rapidly changing world of work.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/h5&gt;

&lt;h4 style="font-size: 18px;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 18px;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;font color="#7A0026"&gt;By the end of the workshop, participants will be able to:&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/h4&gt;

  &lt;li&gt;
    &lt;h5 style="margin-bottom: 0px !important;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 14px;"&gt;Apply practical strategies to lead, motivate and engage people in today's workplace.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/h5&gt;

  &lt;/li&gt;

  &lt;li&gt;
    &lt;h5 style="margin-bottom: 0px !important;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 14px;"&gt;Identify approaches to building resilient, collaborative and high-performing teams.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/h5&gt;

&lt;h5 style="font-size: 18px;"&gt;&lt;/h5&gt;

&lt;h5 style="font-size: 18px;"&gt;&lt;/h5&gt;

&lt;h5&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 14px;"&gt;Managing people requires more than technical expertise. Today's leaders are expected to build trust, motivate diverse teams, manage change, navigate difficult conversations, and promote well-being while maintaining performance and accountability. Whether you are new to managing people or looking to strengthen your leadership skills, this workshop will provide practical, evidence-based strategies that you can apply immediately to enhance team performance, strengthen working relationships, and create positive workplace cultures where people and organisations can thrive.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/h5&gt;

led them into positions of leadership.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/h5&gt;

&lt;h4 style="font-size: 18px;"&gt;&lt;font color="#7A0026" style="font-size: 18px;"&gt;BACKGROUND INFORMATION&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/h4&gt;

&lt;h5 style="font-size: 18px;"&gt;&lt;/h5&gt;

&lt;h5&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 14px;"&gt;Malta has recently introduced new provisions in the VAT Act (through the Budget Measures Implementation Act, in force from March 2026) requiring that, in certain circumstances, supplies of goods or services between related parties be valued at open market value rather than the consideration actually charged. This applies primarily where the agreed price deviates from market value and either the supplier or the recipient has a restricted right to deduct input VAT. This session will examine these new rules and their practical application in the context of intra-group recharges.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/h5&gt;

&lt;h4 style="font-size: 18px;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 18px;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;font color="#7A0026"&gt;SPECIFIC TOPICS TO BE COVERED DURING THE SESSION&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/h4&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
  &lt;li&gt;
    &lt;h5 style="margin-bottom: 0px !important;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 14px;"&gt;The new open market value provisions under the Maltese VAT Act and their alignment with Article 80 of the EU VAT Directive.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/h5&gt;
  &lt;/li&gt;

  &lt;li&gt;
    &lt;h5 style="margin-bottom: 0px !important;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 14px;"&gt;When open market value must be applied, and the definition of "related persons".&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/h5&gt;
  &lt;/li&gt;

  &lt;li&gt;
    &lt;h5 style="margin-bottom: 0px !important;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 14px;"&gt;How open market value is determined, and its interaction with the recharge of costs between related parties.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/h5&gt;
  &lt;/li&gt;

  &lt;li&gt;
    &lt;h5 style="margin-bottom: 0px !important;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 14px;"&gt;Practical considerations for groups with restricted input VAT recovery, together with documentation and benchmarking requirements.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/h5&gt;

&lt;h5 style="font-size: 18px;"&gt;&lt;/h5&gt;

&lt;h5&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 14px;"&gt;The introduction of the open market value rules represents a significant change for Maltese businesses, particularly those operating in group structures or with restricted VAT recovery. Attendees will gain practical insight into how the new provisions apply to recharges, the risk areas to be aware of, and the steps needed to ensure compliance and avoid unexpected VAT exposures. Both members and non-members will benefit from this timely, practically focused session delivered by experienced VAT practitioners.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/h5&gt;

&lt;h5 style="font-size: 18px;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 14px;"&gt;Partial attribution remains one of the most scrutinised areas of VAT compliance. Understanding&lt;br&gt;
when it applies, how to apply the 10th Schedule, and how to manage capital goods adjustments&lt;br&gt;
is essential for businesses with mixed-use activities. This session breaks down the rules,&lt;br&gt;
methods, and documentation r&lt;font style="font-family: &amp;quot;Ubuntu Condensed&amp;quot;, Arial, sans-serif;"&gt;equir&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font style="font-family: &amp;quot;Ubuntu Condensed&amp;quot;, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px;"&gt;ements needed to defend apportionment decisions.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/h5&gt;

&lt;h5 style=""&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 14px;"&gt;Subject persons play a key role in identifying and assessing suspicious activities and transactions as part of their ongoing AML/CFT obligations. It is therefore essential that employees understand when reporting obligations arise and the appropriate steps to take in such situations.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/h5&gt;

&lt;h4 style=""&gt;&lt;/h4&gt;&lt;font style=""&gt;&lt;strong style=""&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 18px;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;font color="#7A0026"&gt;SPECIFIC TOPICS TO BE COVERED DURING THE SESSION&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;
