Women in Business Discussion Group Tuesday 26 May 2015 | 5.45pm – 8pm | CPA Centre Level 3, 111 Harrington St

This month we welcome back Jen Dalitz to present Curiouser and Curiouser: Uncovering opportunities and inspiring action.

Why is it that our childhood curiosity gets left behind when we begin our careers? What if you could rediscover your inner curiosity and creativity to find smarter, faster, simpler ways to get things done? How can you motivate yourself and your team to keep learning, and produce your best work ever?

In an environment that is more and more demanding, our bodies and souls are being tired out by the business world.  Our wellbeing is dictated by deadlines. Our consciousness is cornered by what we’re told to buy, to do and to say.  Through rediscovering your curiosity you can recalibrate your professional creativity and bring more energy, ideas and innovation to work. Overlay this with a simple framework to translate your ideas into action, and you’ll easily achieve more, with less. 

In this seminar you will:
-       Learn how to rediscover the skill of being curious and be introduced to routines, rituals and tools that will re-energise your work
-       Understand how curiosity keeps you (and those around you) motivated and open to fresh ideas
-       Receive a framework to convert your creative ideas into tangible outcomes that will take your performance to the next level.

Get curiouser and curiouser, and discover the wonderland of opportunity right behind your office door.
