Subjects of conversation with top management

Hi,

Having a casual event coming up with top management. Wondering what to talk about with them as I don’t personally know them at all, and know little about their work.
Don’t want dry and « pre cooked » conversations though.

Any ideas welcome!

Preparing for trader role

Hi all,

I'm starting a new role on a power and gas trading desk in about three months and would love to hear any advice from those who've made a similar transition.

Specifically, I'm thinking about two areas:

• Hard skills & knowledge : I have a solid grounding in my market, but there's a layer of trader-specific knowledge (P&L management, risk frameworks, execution, etc.) that I haven't been exposed to yet. What would you prioritise?

• Soft skills : things like managing pressure, decision-making under uncertainty, desk dynamics, and so on.

Any pointers (books, habits, things you wish you'd known) would be really appreciated.

Thanks
