A warm welcome to PSA North West from our Regional President, James Perryman and the gang.

The PSA theme for 2024 is “Stand Out” and we’ll continue to bring that to life to support your personal, professional and business growth!

This months’ agenda will help you to understand your strongest personality style, read other people’s styles and know when, why and how to adapt in order to build brilliant relationships, and how to communicate the value you provide to others – as well as giving you time to relax, connect and network over some food and drink.

The evening will also see our 2023 Regional President hand over the reins for 2024!

Location: The Village Hotel, 110 Centre Park Square, Warrington, WA1 1QA.

Room: “Motivation”, Lower ground floor – head towards the gym area.

Adapting style to build relationships and communicate value – With Vicky O’Farrell

Other peoples’ reactions are often in response to your own actions. We live life on auto-pilot, often making assumptions that those around us want to communicate and interact the way WE want to communicate and interact. What if someone said this is not the case and that by living life on auto-pilot you could in fact be alienating people?

This enlightening and interactive session will provide you with an overview of the DISC system, which is said to be one of the most simplistic and memorable of the profiling tools. It’s not about labelling others, putting people in boxes or an excuse for bad behaviour. Instead it’s about recognising, understanding and respecting our differences.

You will leave this session…

  • Understanding your strongest personality style
  • Understanding how to read others
  • Knowing when, why and how to adapt your style

 

Also speaking on the night is business communication expert, speaker and best-selling author, Carol Benton, who will be sharing her showcase talk “From ‘What’ to ‘So What’ – how to stop talking tech, and start communicating your value”.
