Our October Book of the Month is “Failure Breeds Success” by entrepreneur, growth mentor, consultant, and speaker on strategic change and Leadership, Mike Greene. 

Failure Breeds Success is the first book by entrepreneur and international businessman Mike Greene. He was inspired to write it following an appearance on Secret Millionaire, the long-running Channel Four show. Working with underprivileged kids Mike saw that given half a chance they were able to change their life completely. It forced him to reflect on his own humble background and reflect that we all have the ability to turn setbacks into triumphs and achieve whatever we want to do in life.

Mindfulness is the human ability to be fully present, aware of where we are and what we’re doing, and not overly reactive or overwhelmed by what’s going on around us. Paying more attention to the present moment – to your own thoughts and feelings, and to the world around you – can improve your mental well-being.

Mindfulness-based therapies are recommended by the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) as a way to treat less severe depression

We work with a few speakers that cover mindfulness in their presentations so if you looking for a speaker on the subject these are a few to bear in mind

Psychological safety is the belief people will not be punished or humiliated for speaking up with ideas, questions, concerns, or mistakes. In team environments, it is the expectation held by members of that team that teammates will not embarrass, or punish them for sharing ideas, taking risks, or giving feedback.

When present in the workplace, Psychological safety means people feel comfortable bringing their full, and authentic selves to work. Studies have shown that psychological safety can play an important role in workplace effectiveness. 

If you are looking for a speaker that covers Psychological Safety these are just a few of the speakers we work with.

Our September Book of the Month is “Paying it Forward: How to be a Social Entrepreneur” by the co-founder of Social Bite and Inspirational Speaker Josh Littlejohn MBE.

Paying It Forward is part memoir, part manifesto for social entrepreneurship, and part manual for putting purpose ahead of profit. It reveals what social entrepreneurship is and how it can make a difference.

According to the Oxford Learning Dictionaries website, Mentoring is “the practice of helping and advising a less experienced person over a period of time, especially as part of a formal programme in a company, university, etc.”

We have recently had a few enquiries from clients looking for speakers to come and talk on mentoring and these are some of the speakers we work with that either can talk on the subject or their own mentoring experiences.
