In a world teeming with puzzles and challenges, the adage “two heads are better than one” stands as a testament to the power of collaboration. It’s the spark that ignites when two minds converge, each bringing a unique perspective to the table. Imagine a canvas where every stroke of genius is doubled, where ideas dance and intertwine, creating a tapestry of innovation. This saying isn’t just about doubling the intellectual firepower; it’s about the alchemy that happens when two thinkers resonate,(or as Wayne Clarke puts it “clicks”)transforming the ordinary into the extraordinary. A coffee-chat with a great view becomes a vision-board with a great purpose. It’s a reminder that when we join forces, the horizon of possibilities expands, and the once insurmountable becomes achievable. In this lovely picture there apears to be a third head playing it’s part too: The iconing Lion’s Head mountain forming part of Table Mountain and Singnal Hill ; perhaps this is nature’s way of reminding us that the whole is greater than the sum of the parts…softly whispering “three heads is even better”😄 “Masakhane” 🇿🇦 - African Nguni word meaning “Let us build together” Thanks Andrew Selley Wayne Clarke World Class Manager The Sozo Foundation is looking forward to the extraordinary together.

🚀 Title: Uniting Through Team Building: A Case Study of Peddy Battle 🔥 As we navigate the complexities of today’s work environment, the significance of team building in fostering a cohesive and integrated team cannot be overstated. It’s not just about bringing people together; it’s about bridging cultural divides, enhancing communication, and nurturing an inclusive atmosphere where every member feels valued and understood. On June 7th, we embarked on a journey of camaraderie and discovery with the Peddy Battle event, designed for our diverse group of volunteers at World Battle Porto 2024 By BTRUST - Brand Activation and Event Thinkers With over ten different nationalities represented, the event was more than just a fun day out; it was a testament to the power of inclusion and cultural exchange.✨ The Peddy Battle challenged us to work together, think creatively, and most importantly, understand each other’s strengths and perspectives. The result? A stronger, more unified team ready to take on the world.💪🏼 As we reflect on the success of this team-building exercise, it’s clear that such initiatives are crucial in creating a supportive environment where every volunteer, regardless of their background, can contribute to our collective goals. Let’s continue to embrace diversity and build bridges, one team-building event at a time.

The days are getting longer. This is a time when communities and organizations start making plans for their spring and summer events and festivals. Tourism Saskatchewan has an online course that can take the pain out of planning a community or corporate event. Organizing Special Events provides a practical guide for orchestrating events that make a positive impact. The course is presented in seven short modules, ideal for volunteer boards, new hires, seasonal staff, community members and others who are tasked with organizing and hosting special events. https://lnkd.in/g2Ysrq4z

I look forward to presenting at the New Zealand Association for Impact Assessment NZAIA conference in October. I will discuss how the concept of social capital can provide a different lens for understanding social impacts. Since social capital is inherently framed as capital, which provides future benefits and returns, it focuses attention on the benefits and importance of sociability, allowing for the evaluation of those factors that have the most impact on people and communities. #socialcapital #impactassessment

Celebrating Global Meetings Industry Day. #GMID This is not news to you. We are in one of the most complicated industries. What you do is admirable and inspires me. Let me tell you, GPS Destinations plans 30 #MICEIndustry events a year. Every city is another complicated story. Right Samantha Steiner? Our Director of Operations Melody Clark recently availed that “our events have a lot of moving parts”. How true is that? Every event has 100s if not 1000s. How can we as an industry focus on the goal? The goal of connecting people with one another in a meaningful way? So they may learn, grow and make invaluable connections that benefit them directly? #Meetings that matter? Mark Marino and our entire team including our DMC Collective Partners will continue to evolve PlannerConnect #events so they will always matter to you. Shaun Boothe via Spoken Artists presented, along with other inspiring people, Terry Fox an inspirational #hero to many in Canada. One takeaway for me was that everyday during Terry’s run across #Canada he woke up each morning not thinking about running across Canada. He awoke, with one leg amputated and Cancer continuing to spread across his body, ran and looked ahead to the next lamp post. The next lamp post. With every lamp post he asked himself if he could make it. When he decided he could, he would. We should only ask of ourselves the same. Move forward with smaller goals that intend to meet the larger ones. #TerryFox’s goal was $1,000,000 in Cancer support fundraising. To date, it’s over $850,000,000. #MeetingsMatter. Human connections matter. Inspirational stories matter to us all. Let’s give every event attendee a story they will share that inspire others as well. There’s an ROI of human connections. Let’s nurture it. Let’s express it. And let’s accomplish what we’re meant to do. Connect people so they can learn, grow and provide for their community. Let’s meet at the lamp post ahead. And then meet at the next one. And the one after that. Sociable!
