Online business networking with Felicity Dwyer 10th October 2024

Where do you go for inspiration and support as a small business owner? You could try this online networking session with Felicity Dwyer. Felicity is a learning and development specialist and one of her areas of expertise is the facilitation of meetings, so this is always a well-run, productive meeting.

This month our speaker is Andrzej Brzozowski  with  Mastering Negative Self-Talk: Reclaim Your Power and Take Control

“There’s only one problem in the world and that’s our unquestioned thoughts” (Byron Katie)

Since most of our behaviours start with a thought, followed by a feeling and an action, it’s prudent to notice our thoughts and sift the useful ones from those that limit us .

In this short talk I’ll share with you a simple process that helps you let go of the unhelpful outdated thoughts and replace them with more empowering ones. Putting you back in control, so that you have greater choice and resilience.

Introducing your business.

There’ll be time for some informal conversations with other attendees in break out rooms and there’ll be some ‘get to know you’ activities to enable you to make connections with your fellow attendees.

You may have seen that we have ditched the one minute pitch. Each month we have a theme to keep introductions fresh and to enable us to get to know you better.

In October we’d like you to introduce your business in 20 words or fewer. We won’t count your name, business name or strapline in the 20 words but you can share them

Everyone is welcome. We don’t operate professional lockouts, there’s no pressure to refer and no attendance rules. Our members belong to the community not a specific group. We encourage people to get to know each other and to find ways to support each other on our business journeys. Visitors are welcome to try us out at three events before making a decision about joining.

Please book by clicking ‘Going’ so that we can send you the Zoom link the evening before the meeting.
