Today’s super-fast pace of change in business, when colleagues and customers always demand more much faster, cheaper or better, can cause us quite a headache! This workshop shows you how to deliver what they want, and enjoy the rewards from doing so - without the headache!

The day is split in 2 halves, with the morning focus being on what we regard as one of the most important skills in business today – learning how to learn faster, more easily and more enjoyably. The afternoon focuses on your actual on the job performance – how to get organised, get clarity, reduce overwhelm and apply what you have learned to get the right things done at the right times, quickly.
For managers, business owners, or anyone who wants to enjoy the rewards of progressing much faster and more easily in their business of their career then this course is essential.

CHAMBER PASSPORT - a new benefit for all your staff
The Southampton and Fareham Chamber has just launched another service to its long list of benefits, adding even more value to being a member of this regional Chamber of Commerce, the independentvoice of business.
It has created an on-line special offer section called "Chamber Passport" where Chamber members' employees can enjoy a range of offers and discounts from other Chamber members.
The offers on the website will beupdated on a regular basis and there are a number of exciting offers which are due to be added any day as the companies providing them finalise their offers– so please keep checking the website.
To access the discounts employeesvisit the Chamber’s website at
www.soton-chamber.co.uk and click on the password protected page, which can be found on the homepage.
After entering the password employees can look at the various offers available by category type or through an alphabetical listing. The employee then contacts the organisation providing the service or product (telephone numbersare provided with each offer) and quotes the reference number listed with the offer - you need to do nothing apart from telling employees about the website and what the above password is.
We can provide you with a PDF to print out or wording for you to cut and paste into a newsletter for your staff.
Please contact Nicky Hirst, Public Affairs Officer by email at
n.hirst@soton-chamber.co.uk or call 023 8020 6152 if you would like more information or if you wish to add an offer to benefit your fellow Chamber of Commerce members’ employees and improve your "footfall".
