🙌 Our next BBO PA Network (Bucks, Berks & Oxon PA Network) event is on Thurs, 4th March at 7:30PM 🙌

🌟 We will welcome our incredible keynote speaker for the evening:
Lucy Brazier, CEO Marcham Publishing 🌟

Lucy will be joining us with her keynote:

🌟 'So You Think You Are Strategic? What Does That Mean?' 🌟

In this keynote session, Lucy will look at how to develop your business acumen to best support your executive and what skills are required to futureproof your career in a post-COVID/AI world.

Learning objectives:
✅ Knowing is not the same as understanding!
✅ Learn how to understand your business
✅ Explore what you need to know in order to support your Executive at the highest level
✅ Understand your executive’s personality and learning styles to ensure maximum return of investment from your partnership

We are also excited to announce that we will also be welcoming a BBO PA Network Panel led by BBO PA Network Committee Member, Executive Assistant & Founder of Oculus Creative Learning Samina Azam - ACEPA. Our BBO panel addresses the question:

🌟 How can you stand out as an EXCEPTIONAL Executive Assistant?

🎈 We also have a VIP BBO 2nd Birthday invitation to give out courtesy of Matthew Culley from Escape Live! 🎈

💙 We will be starting Thursday's BBO PA Network (Bucks, Berks & Oxon PA Network) event asking our members how they are and to share something POSITIVE since our last meeting... 💙

Being thankful, lifting each other up and sharing each other's successes/wins is what it's like being part of our incredible Assistant community. The last month has definitely been a challenging one for so many but in the spirit of sharing some positivity here's my wins:

💙 Marianne Whitlock and I have been working incredibly hard organising great events to join us: we are thrilled to be working with Toni Kent, PAul pennant, Lucy Brazier, Malcolm Taylor, Andrew Thorp, Louise Webster, Aduke Onafowokan, Richard Collins, Gordon Hall to name but a few.

💙 My first podcast with Lindsay Taylor went live #ChatawayWithLindsay! I've had many Assistants get in touch since too.

💙 I've mastered THE BEST chocolate brownies according to my son and know how to build a great indoor camp!

💙 Samina Azam - ACEPA and I discussed all things #AskForMore by Alexandra Carter last week for #OnTheSamePageBookClub

💙 My nan, my mum & my dad have all now had the vaccine - I am truly grateful to all the NHS staff for their commitment! #Hope

⬇ PLEASE SHARE YOUR WINS... let's be positive! ⬇
