October Lunch and Learn Reminder

TALK YOUR WAY TO MORE INCOME: AN INTRO TO COMMUNICATION SKILLS FOR BETTER BUSINESS

Oct 31 @ 12:00 pm – 2:00 pm

Join us for a lunch and learn at Destiny Cafe on Tuesday 31 October at 12.30pm to 1.30pm to find out more.
Light lunch will be provided.

All are welcome Tuesday at noon for networking and a 12:30 sharp start with the “formal” part of the mini-workshop.

Smooth, efficient and harmonious communication is key to new business practices. In the 21st century collaboration is king, customer relations (eg social media) are more essential than ever, and there are a whole host of communication skills that most of us never learnt in school!

Never too late to learn how the Googles and Apples of this world are introducing better ways to communicate in person and online to cement collaboration and creativity into their fast evolving business models. You can imitate the giants on your own scale. You may be surprised at what science and progressive business have discovered about what we do on auto-pilot every day: TALK!!!

As George Bernard Shaw said: “The single biggest problem in communication Is the illusion that it has taken place”

Learn how to:

  • Collaborate better through a few clever upgrades to your communication skills
  • Do a few hands-on (voice-on?) exercises during the session
  • Gather pointers on how to make these tricks and tips a permanent part of your better business toolkit

Join us for a lunch and learn at Destiny on Tuesday 29th August at 12.30pm to find out more. Lunch will be provided.

Futurist Dr Colin Russo : Co-Creating Better Futures Today

We have a futurist coming to the Tablelands to do a free public talk on November 16!

You might be one of many to ask: What the devil is a futurist?

Startup and Innovation Tablelands (ST) and the Atherton Tablelands Chamber of Commerce (ATCC) are proud to be working with the National Disability Services (NDS) to host this important event for the Atherton business community on Thursday November 16. Book your free ticket.

This partnership event will showcase the substantial opportunities businesses, start-ups, mainstream services, existing disability service providers and innovation that is presented to the Tablelands by the introduction of the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) – the new approach to disability futures. The NDIS is the largest social reform in Australia since the introduction of Medicare.
ST and ATCC see this as a great opportunity to work with NDS to test out new ideas and possibilities that totally align with our WHY for existing! Both ATCC and ST are here to:
•strengthen the business community and whole of the Tablelands,
•help young and old to see and seize the opportunities in business offered by our brave new world of computers everywhere,
•create job opportunities,
•see the Tablelands’ abundant natural and human resources put to their most
•resilient and sustainable purpose in a modernised business atmosphere.
Back to the question, what the devil is a futurist? We are always creating tomorrow today. If we as individuals, businesses, governments and communities, want to solve tomorrow’s problems today, we need to build our foresight capabilities to critically question whether we are creating the tomorrow we want.

Dr Colin Russo will highlight local and global disruptive trends impacting on our businesses and communities – including the NDIS; share how to utilise internationally accredited strategic foresight tools and methods; and present best practice options on how to co-create our preferred futures.

Tickets - FREE - but you do need to book
