    The Availability Gap: Everyone Can Rely on You. How Much of You Is Left?

    You show up. You make decisions. You keep things moving. But how much of you is actually available for the life you’re working so hard to build?

    This weeks meeting includes an interactive 20-minute workshop with our new Peninsula Patron, Jodie Wyngaardt.

    Jodie will introduce the Availability Gap: the gap between being physically present, capable and functioning, and having the capacity to lead, connect and enjoy your life.

    Through her B.E.A. Method, Body, Energy and Alignment, you’ll recognise where pressure and self-sacrifice cost you presence. You’ll explore what your body is telling you, what drains your capacity, and one choice that makes room for you.

    Because success should include the person creating it.


      Plus of course you'll have the opportunity to introduce yourself and your business to other small business owners and managers as you present your 20 second Elevator Pitch.


      Spread the word, invite a friend to register and make it your business to join us!


      Kind regards

      The Science and Art of Reading People

      Ever had a conversation where you thought you were being perfectly clear … only to realise the other person heard something completely different?  In business, how well we understand the person in front of us can make an enormous difference to how effectively we communicate, build trust and create connection.

      In this highly interactive presentation, International Profiling and Communications Specialist Alan Stevens will introduce us to the science and art of reading people.  You’ll discover how recognising different personality traits — including clues found in facial features and even the hand — can offer fascinating insights into how people prefer to communicate.

      Alan will demonstrate his Rapid Trait Profiling system live, using people in the room to show how individual differences influence the way we connect. You’ll leave with practical insights to help you adapt your communication, understand others more quickly and create stronger relationships — in business and beyond.


      Plus of course you'll have the opportunity to introduce yourself and your business to those present at the meeting as you deliver your 20 second Elevator Pitch.


      Spread the word, invite a friend to register and make it your business to join us!


      Kind regards
