Join us for an inspirational Networking Breakfast with Nyaradzo Mavindidze on Thursday 28 November, 2013

One of the essential keys to success in life and in business is the ability to control your emotions and actions. We can only control what we can control. Self-mastery makes all the difference between success and failure.

Nyaradzo Mavindidze, training consultant, motivational speaker and life coach, will speak on how you can improve  your Self Mastery and Leadership skills. A psychologist by profession, Nyaradzo is passionate about helping people improve and excel in their lives holistically.
Nyaradzo says, “Every one of us already has power, it’s just a matter of peeling away the stuff that shadows who you are and what you are capable of…” As a Coach, Nyaradzo creates an environment where you and your dreams, your challenges, fears and victories are the focus. A time and space to be you, to find out who you are and what you want, and to then go out and create that. Nyaradzo  has guided many to greater self-realization, the achievement of lifelong dreams and most importantly, a place of greater power. She has worked with clients over a range of topics including Goal-Setting, Confidence Building, Weight Loss, Time Management, Life Planning, Personal Effectiveness, Public Speaking and Financial Management.
Nyaradzo publishes motivational materials, journals and daily planners. She is the co-author of the book; ‘Breaking the Glass Ceiling- Career Strategies for Women.’ Her motivational articles are published in local magazines and tabloids. She currently writes a motivational column ‘Motivation for Success’ published in The Herald in the business section every Monday

Networking is not a one night stand! How to Follow Up on Networking Contacts

by Karl Smith - TheNetworkingGuy

MOTIVATIONAL BUSINESS SPEAKER/EXECUTIVE COACH/NETWORKING, PERSONAL BRANDING, REFERRAL MARKETING STRATEGIST/AUTHOR
Effective networking during trade shows can help build business relationships that turn into “referral machines” for you. Regrettably many companies invest millions in exhibitions at the trade shows and conferences with little or no ROI.

On a recent afternoon, Natacha, regional sales manager for a Connectivity enterprise in the telecommunications industry, utilized my expertise to prepare her team for AfricaCom - Africa's largest annual communications Congress and Exhibition – currently in progress at the Cape Town International Convention Centre.
