About this event

Come and join the PSA South East for an evening of great speaking and “FUN” to round up the year.

As we enter the Festive Season, it’s time to celebrate our hard work and achievements and what better way to do it than with some good cheer with your PSA tribe.

We also have two fabulous keynotes who are guaranteed to titillate, tantalise and tease out your festive side, even for those who consider yourselves more of a Grinch or Scrooge.

Fiona Brennan-Scott, one of the PSA’s top fun-loving and top communicators, joins us with a talk entitled “Future Proofing you Communication: Elevating you Impact in an Evolving World”.

As subject matter experts, leaders must be able to communicate their expertise with power, clarity and confidence. And they must communicate with their teams effectively in an AI-enhanced world.

With simplicity, deep knowledge and experience, Fiona inspires leaders to be the best version of themselves.

  • Know that you have a Voice and can learn to use it to enhance and progress your career.
  • Discover what leaders have that AI can never replace
  • Embody a Thinking Environment© in your meetings.
