Diving Deeper What do Mother Teresa, a diabolical apparition in a bloodbath of a swimming pool, and The Full Monty have in common? Isn’t it obvious? Such is the diversity of keynote deliveries our members and visitors enjoy at The Boardroom Network! November’s breakfast meeting of our Dorset group was treated to a three-course...
From Healthcare to Halloween and from Firewalking to living without Fear or Frustration
From Healthcare to Halloween, Firewalking to Living without Fear or Frustration! You Can’t Put A Price On Your Health Alex Budd, owner of the local franchise of WPA, launched our keynote presentations.

Let Them Eat Cake
Let Them Eat Cake! I always think that someone who chooses to attend The Boardroom Network shows really good taste! Today’s breakfast meeting added even more dimensions to reinforce that thought.

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,...
Recommendations that Rock
Justin Wharmby, our regular photographer, has captured a ‘moment’ that defines what The Boardroom Network means to me: strong relationships nurtured by regular connection – leading to a culture of ‘know-like-trust’ upon a foundation of really good humour. Of course, Anthony Marshall and Sam Dyer (above) are known for their wonderful smiles, but they...

Memories are made of this… The Bournemouth TBN Christmas meeting was memorable, merry, and magical… and a testament to the flexibility of members, organisers, and presenters!
