Xtraordinary Women Networking Session: Holistic Network



TOPIC: BE HAPPY AGAIN!

Very often the process of LOSS leaves us feeling destitute, alone, lost and sometimes we have so many “what if” questions that we found we have lost our joy and happiness in amidst everything else.

How did we get here, where do we go to from here? What is the process of loss we go through regardless of what form the loss takes.

So HOW can you BE HAPPY AGAIN?

Give yourself permission to find your joy and look at LIFE, THE UNIVERSE and EVERYTHING ELSE – change your life to be the one you want to live, not the one you have been living.

18 November Xtraordinary Women: Southern Suburbs Networking Event



THIS IS A MIXED NETWORK. BOTH BUSINESSWOMEN AND MEN ARE WELCOME.

Topic:
Personal Mastery and the Drivers of Human Behaviour
Considering all that is happening in the world today, both locally and internationally, in all aspects of life, it would appear that we are in the grip of a leadership crisis! At Ennea International we are aiming to address this issue. We work directly with leaders and their teams, enabling them be the best that they can be, and to consistently operate at high performance levels. This results in them making a real positive difference to their organisations and the people around them. We also equip others to use the tools and processes we have developed.

In order to achieve this it is important to delve into, understand, and work with the fundamental drivers of human behaviour. If shifts happen at this level then surface behaviour is also likely to change. In doing this we aim to elevate people’s level of awareness of self and others. In essence, we help them raise their level of consciousness in order to see the impact of their actions, and to respond with awareness rather than react unconsciously. This is what we refer to as "personal mastery”.

11 November: Xtraordinary Women Coastal Network Event Listing



TOPIC: Staying Relevant and Connected with Today's Digitally Enabled Consumer


Entrepreneurs and Brands that want to successfully keep up with today's digitally enabled consumer must consider investing in an always-on multi-channel strategy, which ensures that they are able to exchange information and services 24 hours a day. 

Today's highly connected customer uses multiple devices across multiple channels in any given day and is demanding access to brands and services whenever they choose, and on the channel of their choice. This is creating a range of challenges for traditional marketers and agencies, who needs to be able to deliver relevant messaging to a consumer, at the right time and on the right device, as well as for any brand or entrepreneur who needs to truly feel that they have a consistent connection with their target audience.
