BNI Crowne Windsor

🚀 Another great morning at BNI Crowne!

We kicked things off with education from Pete, who shared some practical tips on cold outreach:

📞 Make the call and introduce yourself.
📧 Follow up with an email or text.

Simple, effective ways to start building new connections!

🏆 Referral of the Week went to Samuel Dalby from Laing+Simmons Hawkesbury.

Sam had us laughing when he shared that one thing he'd learnt this week was that "government sucks" – and so does some of the training he has to sit through to earn his CPD points! 😂

A memorable takeaway, Sam!

💡 Our feature presentation came from Wendy Thompson of Instructive Media, who explored how online training can benefit businesses.

Wendy explained why quality training should be viewed as an investment, not a cost, and walked us through the five steps involved in developing an effective online course:

1. Discover – understand the business and its learners.
2. Gather – collect the knowledge and existing resources.
3. Design – plan the learning experience.
4. Develop – create the training.
5. Deliver – get it into the hands of learners.

The key message? Businesses already have the knowledge. The opportunity is turning that knowledge into engaging training that helps people perform better.

👏 Thanks to everyone who contributed to another valuable morning of learning, connections and a few laughs!
