Helen Christie (face2faceHR) - Coping with Workplace Stress - Stress related absence costs UK business around £1000 a year per employee! That’s a lot of money for an SME, so it makes sense to have some strategies in place to reduce the financial impact, not to mention the productivity benefits of having a happier and healthier workplace. The 2 most common causes or workplace stress are workload and management style. In this session I’ll give you a taster of how managers can identify, prevent and address stress and give you some simple techniques to help employees manage their own workplace wellbeing.

Jamie Butterfield (AXA) - Employee Experience: Why it Matters. As a business owner or leader, what is your number 1 priority? If you didn’t say “my people”, you’re letting your employees down, which is impacting your bottom line. In this hour long session I’ll give you a whistle-stop tour of the importance of putting your people first. What I’m going to tell you isn’t rocket science, nor is it expensive. I’ll show how you can make a huge difference, simply by recognising what your people do for you and by giving them the right work environment. Can you afford not to change?

Andrea Wood (Pop Up Yoga)- We live in a fast paced world where our health and well being often slip to the bottom of our ’to-do lists’ day after day after day. We know however that our health and wellbeing are essential if we are to function at our best and meet the challenges that are presented to us each day.  Take a deep breath, relax and join Andrea for a wonderful session of Yoga to clear your mind and re-energise your body.
