Join us on October 27 for this short session with Erin Shrimpton, chartered organisational psychologist and expert in workplace behaviour change to pick up some tools to use.

By applying the lessons that can be learnt from successful entrepreneurs to our work life we can benefit from their ability to take initiative, adapt to change, find creative solutions and be comfortable with risk and use them to make our professional lives more rewarding.
