Event Details

This is the 2^ndWomen in Business Focus Group breakfast and we have chosen our topic andspeaker carefully based on the feedback we received from our launch event. Itwas clear that members want the opportunity to have tangible take-aways thatwill help and support them in their business lives.  There was also astrong sense that, despite the title for the group, men should be included,welcomed and encouraged to join the debate. For this reason we are also joiningforces with the Business Through Learning group for this event so the contentwill be applicable to everyone and anyone in business, regardless of gender.

We aredelighted to host a breakfast on ‘Effective Communication’ brought to life byOliver Blofeld, Managing Partner at Insight Middle East. Oliver will becovering the following topics:

* Understanding your audience
