About this event
Come and join us for a fun and supportive community of professional speakers, trainers and coaches. In our October meeting we’re doing things differently!
The first half of our meeting will be keynote speaker George Anderson delivering his new keynote – Speaking Business Success… By Design
George brings concepts from his book ‘By Design Not Default’ into the world of speaking, showing us how to install the habits that drive consistent progress.
You’ll walk away with practical tools to grow your business, get clarity on what to focus on, and design sustainable systems that actually work.
By listening to this speech you will learn…
- Identify the high-impact habits that create momentum in your speaking business, and discover how to stay consistent even when no two days look the same.
- Shine a light on the uncomfortable truths that are holding you back from your potential… and what to do about them.
- Recognise and overcome the common derailers that stop speakers from moving forward.
This will be followed by brief recap on The Speaking Business Summit (don’t worry if you couldn’t attend, we’ll be giving you a summary) followed by a practical coaching implementation session where in small groups we’ll be applying what we’ve learnt, reviewing our speaking business goals and working together to dissolve any challenges you have.
Plus we’ll have our usual showcase presentations and a short presentation by our new PSA National President Alastair Greener.
