Business Station: Agile Business Planning & Modelling Mural Masterclass
2023-02-06 12:00 - 13:00 | online, Australia
In this session, we discuss ‘Dialling in’ your small business/start-up strategy using Agile Business Planning and Modelling Techniques

Almost anyone can come up with Strategy or Tactics which could conceivably work within the context of a Small Business or Start-up.
The difficulty lies in getting said strategies and tactics to deliver meaningful & strategic results.
The business building process can be an excruciating process of trial, error and misfortune resulting in slow & confusing progress.
If you have ever started a business you can probably relate to the highs & lows of running seemingly endless start-up experiments to little/ no avail.
Problem = TOO many Business Strategy Variables

Workshop Descriptions
Startup to Grown Up
Why should micro businesses think about building resilience now?

Most successful businesses started out as a micro business or are one still today.
But the success rates of micro and small businesses surviving are astoundingly bad.
What does it take to build a micro business that is resilient, which can grow into opportunity and can deliver long term sustained value for the founders and employees?

Presented by ADAPT By Design, one of Perth’s leading small business focussed strategic consultants.

Networking for small businesses
To grow your business, you’ve got to network. But not everyone finds networking easy.
So, how do you network… and make it productive/profitable?
How do you just go out and meet people and engage them, connect with them, follow up with them, and convert your conversations with them into actual business?
And how do you network in a natural true-to-you kind of way, without being pushy or looking like you need the business?
This workshop has everything you need for successful networking, and for getting business through networking.
Led by Ron Gibson, one of Australia’s leading professional experts in networking.
Who is this event perfect for?

Business Owners
Professionals & Consultants
Startups & Entrepreneurs
Individuals just starting out
Anyone who wants to learn how to use networking to grow their business
Anyone who genuinely wants to become better at networking

The Neuroscience of Well Being
What is holding you back from reaching your highest potential? Can you relate to any of these very common subconscious programs that prevent us from creating the success we deserve in our lives:
➡️ Lack of confidence
➡️ Fear of not being enough
➡️ Low self-worth
➡️ Not feeling capable
➡️ Comparison to others
➡️ Feeling stuck
➡️ Procrastination
➡️ Scarcity mindset
➡️ No clear direction
➡️ People pleasing
➡️ Lack of healthy boundaries
Thankfully there is a way to lead a life with less stress, greater resilience and more peace. Each one of us has the ability to shift mindsets and overcome subconscious programs that have limited our growth and expansion. It’s time to believe again in you and your dreams.
We will unpack the neuroscience of well-being and what keeps us stuck. The presentation by Dr. Vish Ramakonar, Neuro Change Solutions consultant, will explain the main factors based on neuroscience that affect our mental and physical well-being and sabotage our success.
If you are a business professional, either employee, employer, self-employed or an entrepreneur who wants to create more success and well-being in your organisation and life, then this event is for you.
Dr Vish Ramakonar is part of a global network of corporate consultants trained by Dr. Joe Dispenza, New York Times best-selling author, lecturer, and researcher, to teach organizations how to apply the neuroscience of change to increase employee engagement, collaboration, creativity, productivity, and ultimately — business results.
Be inspired and take away 3 key outcomes:
✳️ The neuroscience of well-being and how we get stuck
✳️ The concept of ‘coherence’ and how it can scientifically help us get unstuck
✳️ Learn a tool to use in the moment that is scientifically proven to create more coherence in our heart and brain
McKinsey & Company research shows that 70% of change programs don’t reach their stated goals.” Sustaining change requires a major reset in mind-sets and behaviors—something that few leaders know how to achieve.”
May 9, 2016 Mickinsey Article: The ‘how’ of transformation.
After this training you will uinderstand some of the neuroscience of what is required to change mindsets and behaviours.
