Let's explore the book Another Door Opens together.

Each gathering is a 15 minute mini talk covering the main points of the chapter (so if you haven’t read it yet you can still join in).

We’ll then have some time to think out loud, share thoughts and listen to what other people took from the step. We explore each step through the lens of navigating change as an individual, as a leader, as a team. Also, there will be a challenge set at the end of each gathering so the group can support each other in their encouragement to embrace change.

You’ll need to register (on Zoom) for each gathering, this is to ensure a safe space. You can join all 5 (to get maximum benefit) or the ones that fit the diary!.
