Today I turn three!
Today marks three years since I emerged from under the duvet and into a meeting room at Ando Insurance to facilitate my first half-day workshop under my own banner with Vim & Vigour!
The assignment was to facilitate the first in-person Exec Team meeting post the very first lockdown. Rebecca Mowat and John Lyon and the wider team were so warm and encouraging. Literally, they were launching me on a new path and willing me to succeed… like you would a three year old starting at kindy!
I won’t bore you with the long list of things I’ve learned about from paying tax (proudly and on time and in many, various forms) to partnering with experts on all the things I don’t know from IT to Marketing!
At the end of the day, why I started and why I’m still here remains the same:
🤓 Today, more than ever, leaders still need to lead and are keen to build their confidence and capability.
💞 Teams still need to establish and continue to build connection and trust to lean into the non-linear, gnarly and exciting challenges they face.
🗺 Change remains the only constant so helping individuals and leaders to make sense of the beautiful and incomprehensible events around us is imperative.
Thank you to all my clients who trust me to design and facilitate to their precious people and to all my colleagues out there doing great work in this space. Without you I would have retreated back under the duvet.
Let’s keep going strong with Vim & Vigour!
