The times of our 15 minute taster sessions have been confirmed as follow's:

7:15 - 7:30 : Hierarchy Of Needs Session:  Maslow's model simplified and made easy to use to help you to
motivate your team. An excellent model for understanding human motivation.

Take away the concept of this simple but effective model and use it in your day to day life to get a snap shot of how your work/life balance is.

Love is in the Air . . .

Smiling :)

'Good feelings for others are like ointments that heal wounds and re-establish friendship and
relationships. Good feelings are generated in the mind, are transmitted  through your attitude and are reflected through your eyes and smile. Smiling opens the heart and a glance can make miracles happen.'


Just wanted to share this. . . not sure where I saw it but I wrote it down and came accross it a couple of day's ago!!

November Networking

Well we have been very busy since our last news letter back in August. . . . . . . .   We welcomed Ayshe to the team as an Associate, which has officially made us an International Company. . . . . . . .   Chris and Ros started their Working With Parents course and are really enjoying going back to school. . . . . . . .   Ros and I took part in and open day for the new family centre @ Kingslangly School and ran a taster session on the Wheel of Life, and would like to thank all those involved.  We look forward to seeing some of you at the 'Are you listening?' workshop we are running next Tuesday. . . . . . .  .. .  .  We have also been busy promoting our up and coming 'Don't be fine, be FANTASTIC' (email fantastic@positivechcangeconsultancy.com for more details) workshop hosted by Beautology.

Going forward we are dedicating November to Networking!!  We want to raise our company profile and increase our client base through joining a national business network called 4networking and have found out about some free local networking events too: 


  • St Francis Hospice on the 10th of November with an opportunity to raise money for the hospice by buying raffle tickets.
  • Havering Council host regular free Women In Business networking events the next one being on the 11th of December.

We are also very excited at the prospect of holding some taster sessions at the Business Networking and Exhibition Event 2010 at the Queens Theatre on the the 1st of December, with a view to being an event sponsor.

Well we look forward to all the people we will be meeting in our November Networking Challenge and would love to hear about any networking events you will be attending.
