The “2 Cs” – how to engage consumers and colleagues
Inspiring ideas from Kate Hardcastle of Insight with Passion
It’s hard not to be impressed by Kate. She’s an award-winning business transformation specialist, winner of 15 national awards (including “Marketer of the Year”) and one of the UK’s foremost women business leaders.
As a partner of Insight with Passion, Kate helps businesses to change and grow by focusing on customers’ needs and valuing the business’s people. She’s also an accomplished speaker, with a list of high-profile events under her belt.
Meet Kate at the CLBC, where she’ll share her understanding of “the 2 Cs” – consumers and colleagues – and how to keep them at the heart of your business.

Women in business – playing to our strengths
Inspiring ideas from world-class speaker Kiki Maurey
Kiki believes in women as an economic force. She’s especially gifted at supporting women in their careers and in business, and is an accomplished management consultant, professional and executive coach-mentor.
She’s also an inspiring speaker, described by Warwick Business School as a ‘world-class speaker’ and by Barclays as ‘one of the best keynote speakers and facilitators in the country’.
“Not everyone has a compelling story to tell or an engaging style that can captivate audiences … Kiki does just that.”
We’re really privileged this month to be able to meet Kiki, so do join us at the CLBC to hear her thoughts on the huge power of persuasion – of the right kind (not the bedroom kind!). Kiki will share with us the success factors that are critical in building our businesses.
Please note: the CLBC doesn’t meet in August.
28 October
The Formula 1 theory
Sheryl Andrews on pace and pit stops
There can be little doubt that ours is a demanding world, where many of us rush through life as if we’re competing in a Formula 1 race.
Sheryl will talk about the importance of pacing ourselves, having regular pit stops and listening – to the experts, ourselves and those around us. In particular, she will uncover how the “Formula 1” theory affects our business relationships. She’ll take a look at the challenges for us, for example, in understanding our clients or when handing over responsibility.
Join us at the CLBC to meet Sheryl, who is an experienced and engaging speaker, and hear why we should stop for a while – not just for ourselves but also for the benefit of the next generation.
