1. TP Events and Bathurst Women’s Network is delighted to welcome you
to our lunch on Friday 18th July 2014 with

Grow your business by growing your leaders...
Everyone is looking for a sustainable competitive advantage in business. The old model of
price, position, promotion and product is no longer enough. Today the best way to stay
ahead of the rest is through people. People do business with people they know, like and
trust. People do business with people they perceive as leaders in their field. So how do you
rate your skills as a leader? Are they helping or hindering your business to grow?
Whether you are a small business owner or a leader in a larger organisation, this session will
show you how to become the best leader you can be. Using her Workplace Gardening
philosophy, Karen Schmidt will show you:
• How to tell if you are a Brown Thumb or Green Thumb leader
• Why you don’t need natural talent to succeed
• How Green Thumb Leaders think
• The 5 keys to becoming the best leader you can be
If you want your business to be the leader in its field in the Bathurst district then this is a
must attend event.

3. Networking is…
• Connecting with similar thinking people who value
what you do, believe in abundance, and seek win win
situations consistently!
• These people will become advocates, suppliers,
customers, and most importantly friends.
