Thank you to all of our delegates who joined us at last month’s National Executive PA Conference and helped to make it such a resounding success!
We've received some fantastic feedback since the event, which has included comments such as "enlightening… motivational... invaluable... worthwhile and stimulating... thought provoking... incredibly enjoyable...”. But don’t just take our word for it:
to see who said what...
This year’s conference, on 19-20 November at Brighton's Grand Hotel, featured a diverse selection of high-brow seminars hosted by leading speakers in the fields of commerce, motivation and training. Highlights included opening Keynote speaker Karren Brady – UK Business Woman of the Year 2007, the ever popular Judi James – the UK’s leading TV expert in body language, and Rona Cant, Adventurer and international motivational speaker, who ended the conference with a truly inspirational session.
The “Reed Masterclasses” provided a wide variety of excellent workshop sessions, which were specifically chosen to help develop skill sets and introduce new areas of learning to our delegates. Sessions included: Project Management, Financial Planning, The PA as Manager, The Green PA, and Managing your Career to name but a few.
Far more than a single annual event, it is the conference’s role as a unique and unrivalled networking forum that continues to garner it so many positive reviews. For not only did this conference aim – and succeed – to give Executive PAs the recognition that their highly-challenging role deserves but it also offered them some well deserved “me time”. And, whilst each delegate is sure to have their own personal highlights from The National Executive PA Conference 2008, we are delighted to announce that our Gala Dinner Prize Draw raised a fantastic £600 for our nominated charity, WellBeing of Women (WoW)!
