A Summary of our weekly meetings
Chairman’s Business Networking Blog Thursday 29th May 2014. Given the holidays, a reasonable turnout; 18 members and 1 visitor Sophie Eades of Suprema. David Plumley’s Ed Slot examined how you should manage your busy and quiet times and the concept of under promising and over performing. It was further notable for the wiggle/wriggle debate and…
Chairman’s Business Networking Blog Tuesday 27th May 2014 I dreamt I was no longer on holiday, that I had returned prematurely to a Tuesday Meeting immediately following a Bank Holiday. Other people were on holiday and our numbers were reduced to 15 members with 2 guests Derek Briggs from Little Havens who will be standing…
Meeting Chairmans Business Networking Blog – 22nd May 2014 Only 17 present but what we lacked in numbers, we made up for with enthusiasm and decibels. Our legendary Chairman Aidan Squire was still away on a well earned holiday and our usual understudy Brian Painter was absent due to undertaking top secret work for the…
Chairman’s Business Networking Blog Thursday 8th May 2014 20 members present and 2 visitors Gary Waskett, who is only a re-joining fee away from being a member and Sophie Eades, Michael Adelizzi daughter and guest. Top table was depleted, with Brian Painter standing in for David Plumley and Scott Griffith’s seat empty, which seat he…
Chairman’s Business Networking Blog Tuesday 6th May 2014. 19 people had one thing in common. The stupidity, after a wonderful Bank Holiday weekend in particular a Monday of sunshine and relaxation, of having to drag themselves out of bed to be at meeting for just after 6 am. Our lethargic little group sustained themselves initially…
Chairman’s Business Networking Blog Thursday 1st May 2014. 22 members attended, apologies for absence from remaining members and the sad news that due to an increase in business Chris Van Sadler no longer feels he can fill the photographer slot. Our best wishes to him for the future. We had 2 guests, Richard Pond from…
Chairman’s Business Networking Blog Tuesday 29th April 2014. A really excellent turnout, 21 of our current 23 members. Apologies for absence from the 2 missing and one of our regular visitors Dean Caldon from the Brentwood Group made up 22 in all. Before I start on the details of what went on, please Jim, I…
Chairman’s Business Networking Blog Thursday 24th April 2014. A timely reminder by the Meeting Secretary on Wednesday 23rd April 2014 of member’s obligations to attend meetings regularly brought out one or two faces we had not seen for some time. One of these I had thought was dead. I will not mention names if only…
Chairman’s Business Networking Blog Tuesday 22nd April 2014. Our smallest meeting for some time, with 7 apologies for absence; An intimate group of 13 sat around the breakfast table. Even the fact that those of us at the meeting had robust appetites, as a group we were unable to cope entirely with the Burstead Golf…
Chairman’s Business Networking Blog Tuesday 15th April 2014 If this wasn’t the best meeting to date of our relatively newly formed group I can’t remember which one was. It all started inauspiciously when most of us found ourselves scraping the ice from the wind screens of our cars before setting off for our weekly Tuesday…
