New Workshop Idea
A workshop/course/event/need-that-I-could-fill thing is forming in my brain. The potential punters are – anyone who struggles with the difficulty of working in an organisation, anyone who feels that they haven’t quite got what they need, and no matter how many times they try to do what they know is the right thing to do, they…
