The committee are busily planning a programme of events to bring together local businesses in 2024 including networking breakfasts, events specifically for sole traders and training. We kick started with a brilliant Mastermind event.
A Mastermind is a group session giving an opportunity for one person (normally) to share a problem and receive the benefit of guidance from the group. The session is facilitated, as there is a formal process that should be followed to get best value. Often some or all the people in the group have the same issue as the focus person, so the value of the shared clarification and ideas benefits all members of the group.
On 8 February we ran our first Mastermind evening, kindly hosted by Dan Jeffrey at Howden and expertly facilitated by Peter Quintana of hgkc. On what was a rather wet and wild night we were thrilled to see a packed room of local business people come together to share and discuss current business challenges. Thank you to those who participated, we hope you enjoyed the evening and we look forward to running the next one later in the spring.
