I was incredibly proud to be asked to speak at Business Works 2013 on the Morale Margin and boosting the motivation of our teams in a recession.

Business Works is a business exhibition for the Solent region and it was great to see so many ambitious organisations in one location – all with a positive ‘can do’ attitude when it comes to beating the recession.

Slides from today

For everyone that attended my talk, the slides can be downloaded here.

I opted for image-led slides to ensure that my audience focused on my words. This helped me to increase and decrease the pace of the talk as appropriate – adding emphasis to the key points and call to actions. Despite a few sound issues, it worked well!

I met lots of engaging, interesting businesspeople today and enjoyed talking to everyone! If we didn’t get a chance to chat, it would still be great to meet you – please do introduce yourself in the comments area at the bottom of this post!
