Independence 2.0 If there was ever a perfect morning at The Italian Villa, the 4thof July, Independence Day, was it for The Boardroom Network. Once a year it has become a tradition for the Dorset meeting of The Boardroom Network (we have meetings in Wiltshire and Hampshire too) to gather for a Summer Breakfast at […]
Breaking Good
Strange yet wonderful changes are afoot at The Boardroom Network. In fact, positive change is a big theme in common for our members. Our Wiltshire gathering included a keynote on “Change” from Clare Yates, a literal change of clothing as a demonstration of how to prepare from the Southampton Sailing Week with Chris Rees, and […]
Outside Influence
On Midsummer’s Morning Members and Visitors of The Boardroom Network, Hampshire, gathered together at Chilworth Manor. There was no dancing but there were exchanges of clothing and something unusual was clearly occurring… though nothing to do with the Solstice! Keynotes from Michael Birchmore and Chris Rees encouraged us to explore the great outdoors, whilst a […]
Look Great and Feel Amazing
Ryan David showed us how his services could have our vehicles looking great, Kat Linsley Hood and Jay Rachet assured us we could feel amazing, and Dr Hannah Beard gave us 5 very easy ways to make that outcome certain! With nearly 100 members and visitors in the room at the Dudsbury Golf Club, the […]
Which Wolf Are You Feeding?
[Editor’s note: Sam’s face says it all – such energy and enthusiasm! With this in mind, I asked Sam to send me his blog so that we could share his story, his enthusiasm, and his opportunity… in his words. I’ve added some headings but these are otherwise Sam’s exact words. Over to you, Sam…] I’m […]
Peace Productivity and the Power of Proactivity
Peace, Productivity, and the Power of Proactivity A packed room at Chilworth Manor was treated to three practically useful presentations from members of TBN Hampshire. First up was the inspirational Deborah Baxter from “The Spirit Within.” Next, Craig Nixon from “Tekkers IT Solutions” highlighted the latent potential lurking in our IT – using Microsoft 365 as […]
The Loneliness of the Long Distance Worker
Can Networking be seen as genuine perk that boosts productivity? Yes, today’s blog’s title is an homage to the film of almost the same name, “The Loneliness of the Long-Distance Runner.” The 1962 ‘coming-of-age’ drama is a bleak movie with an equally bleak storyline, and a less than happy ending… or is it? The protagonist, […]
For the Future
Lynne Henderson demonstrating when it is time for us to add the next application of sunscreen… when it itches! Creating the Future with Lynne Henderson and Angharad Holloway We had two impactful keynote speakers on a glorious May morning at the Dudsbury. Firstly, Lynne Henderson (who received a wonderfully rousing welcome) helped us protect our […]
Back to Life
The Wiltshire meeting of The Boardroom Network was the first of our three regions to return ‘back to life’ after the Easter break. I say, “Back to Life,” because we had the charismatic Sandie Thorkeldsen demonstrating how to look after our “Back for Life,” when it comes to driving wisely. With a few, fast, and […]
The Joy of the Endgame
Here’s an unusual image to start our TBN blog with, and yet highly relevant to Friday’s keynote content at the Hampshire meeting of The Boardroom Network. Our meeting was about how we need to, “Start with the end in mind,” (Stephen R Covey), articulated clearly, concisely, and convincingly by Action Coach’s Kevin Stansfield. Richard Mack entertainingly […]
