Tonight we celebrated the start of the ‘festive’ season with a fabulous fun filled meeting. Thought provoking speeches, club awards and a secret Santa themed table topics. It’s been a challenging year but we’ve seized every opportunity to develop & learn together.

We are excited to announce that we will be meeting ‘IN PERSON’ again on WEDNESDAY 2 SEPTEMBER at Writtle College. Being socially distanced limits numbers so don’t miss out! Let us know you’re coming [email protected]
The key to becoming fearless is to change the way the mind perceives a particular fear. While there may be numerous approaches to achieve that change, the most effective is to replace the negative experience with a positive. Change the experience; change the pattern.

We are online for a while. You may as well get really good at doing this gig!
Virtual meetings can feel cold, impersonal, and distant. Here's how to show warmth online. @DeborahGRiegel on.inc.com/tPY5NcH

Regardless what changes may come with social interaction, you are still going to need to communicate.
Shift your mindset when you're meeting new people
Last night we had Table Topics themed around being in a celebrity’s shoes for a day. We then had two prepared speeches. The first asked us whether technology is our master or our slave? The second was the re-telling of an emotional real-life story from a holocaust survivor.
