It can often seem like that. There is no shortage of 'what you should be doing' advice in business as I'm sure you are already aware but it doesn't matter what you decide to do, which way you turn, there always seems to be something that gets in the way. Stops you moving forward... comes with a price tag!
Mostly that comes down to technical knowledge you don't have, or, having to decide about a product or service to use which requires some advice or guidance. It might even be you need a straight answer as to whether it is something you need to bother with right now.
Where do you go? ... where can you go? ... where you won't be sold too... where the advice and guidance is for your benefit not someone else's?
These events are free to attend and inclusive. This means that literally anyone can come along and benefit from them.
What happens at these events?
They are free format opportunities to meet, talk, listen, learn, connect, share and inspire. Basically these are spaces where people can come along and are free from the pressure to meet the expectation or needs of others.
