Unlocking Potential’s next Future Focus event will explore the impact of Brexit and disruption for businesses based in Cornwall, providing real life examples and action-planning tools to lead businesses through it successfully.
Keynote Jim Lawless is a leading motivational speaker and author of the best-selling book ‘Taming Tigers‘ and has worked with companies from Apple to Atos to deliver large-scale change. During the day he will share how he found the confidence, belief and energy to deal with disruption and make significant change happen.
Businesses will also hear from Katie Cavell, the Cornwall Brussels Representative for Europe talking about her key considerations for businesses in Cornwall and the Isles of Scilly as a result of Brexit.
Guided by Jim and local business leaders; Catherine Mead of Lynher Dairies, Toby Parkin of Headforwards and Michael Rabone of Rick Steins, as well as Katie Cavell from the Cornwall Brussels Office, attendees will spend the day exploring the variable paths that lay ahead.
Assisted through workshop settings facilitated by Trevor Lee, Angelo Spencer-Smith and Sally Read, businesses will also gain a greater understanding of the possibilities and innovation which can be born out of disruption for SMEs in Cornwall.
Paul Trudgian, Owner of Fish for Thought saw Jim at his last visit to Cornwall and recalls of his experience from the event; “I was fortunate to attend an event led by Jim Lawless with Unlocking Potential a few years ago and he remains one of the most inspiring people I have been fortunate to spend time with. His perspective that we are in control of our own destiny with the absolute power to 'write our own story' has never been truer. He doesn't just talk about change, he personifies it, and will challenge you to make big changes too.”
Business leaders and owners who want to explore the evolution of their business through Brexit, with insights and inspiration from experts and support from Unlocking Potential, should attend the Event.
