SUMMARY:Plan. Act. Thrive. with Mark Daniels
DESCRIPTION:Join us for this straight-to-the-point workshop with Mark Daniels\, Action Coach\, to kick off your plan for a future beyond these COVID times. \nThings are beginning to move on from the situation of the last two years. We need to be ready to do so too. \nA good way to start is to take a moment away from life and business as usual\, to give your future some thought\, to set some ambitious goals\, and to create a practical tactical plan you can follow (and easily stick to)\, while we go about realising the future you want. \nWhile you know this is what needs to happen it often ends up in the too hard basket when you try to do it on your own. Luckily you don’t have to. \nThis learning event is offered at a subsidised rate thanks to support from Whanganui & Partners.

SUMMARY:Women After 5 - Energy and Excellence with Raewyn Overton-Stuart
DESCRIPTION:When Leadership expert John Maxwell was asked\, \n“How do you know what you are meant to do in life” he replied: \n“The answer is really simple: Energy and Excellence. \nWhen you experience unbounded energy in what you are doing\, when you are driven to excellence in your work and love what you do – then you can rest assured that you have found your passion and are definitely in pursuit of your full potential.” Easy to say… hard to do! \nRaewyn Overton-Stuart is going to share what energy and excellence looks like for her\, with some key learnings as to how it has shaped her journey since founding PAUA in 2003. \nRaewyn Overton-Stuart started her career with a Kindergarten Teacher’s Diploma in the early 1980s in Christchurch. A move to Whanganui and PAUA (Preschoolers At-home Uniquely Achieving) was formed in 2003. It was born out of desire to provide a quality Home Based Early Childhood Education Service that would reflect her personal values. In 2012\, PAUA Poppetts Nanny Recruitment and Babysitting Service joined the PAUA whānau – adding to the services that we can provide\, especially for families holidaying in Auckland who need a babysitter in their hotel. PAUA Products (a toy shop – physical and online) and PAUA Print complete the businesses that she founded and runs. \nRaewyn is actively involved in the community; she has been part of the Chamber of Commerce board and Chair\, is a board member of the Whanganui City Mission\, part of Whanganui Daybreak Rotary and an active member of St Paul’s Presbyterian Church. \nJoin us at Women After 5 for an energetic session with Raewyn! \nCancellation Policy: 48-hours prior for refund

SUMMARY:Business for Breakfast - April 2022
