Businesses Taking Care

BNCC’s new workshop series for business has kicked off with a special event focussed on ‘Taking Care in Tough Times.’

Hosted by Vitality Expert, Jo Hassan, participants were guided through a range of practical skills for coping in an uncertain world.


The workshop looked at ways to deal with feelings of overload and how to move toward a balanced, vibrant, and profitable life in business.

‘Taking Care in Tough Times’ also fell very near to this year’s R U OK? day. During the second half of the workshop, Jo, who is also a community ambassafor for R U OK?, discussed the importance of this year’s message: R U really OK? and how to feel more confident asking the question.

Next up in our workshop series for business: Back to Basic Marketing, hosted by Pistol Creative on 10 November. Registrations now open.
