Monthly Networking Evenings -
As so many of you couldn't make out monthly networking meetings on a Wednesday evening
we have now moved these to a Tuesday evening to try entice some of our other
members along to join us at our meetings.
The events will usually cost just £5 to include light refreshments (with the exception of the
Summer Ladies Luncheon and the Christmas Event).

Rise above the Fray - Delivered by Beth Tyrell
Also BWL Annual General Meeting
Some tips and advice to help deal with difficult people, whether you run your own company or
work for someone else, whether your business is small and local or a large multi-national; and
no matter what sector you work in; the one thing that is common to all is the need to deal with
difficult people.
This is often the cause of stress and anxiety, can reduce your performance at work and if left
unchecked can lead to you being labelled as ‘difficult’.
We will identify some of the different types of difficult people (no doubt you will be able to
recognise some!) and the strategies to manage them. We’ll also look at some more general
tips and guidance for handling difficult people and conflict.
Beth runs Tyrrel Consulting Ltd, a business specialising in improving business performance and
designing and implementing change in all kinds of businesses. Beth has worked at a senior
level for many years diagnosing and solving business problems, managing clients, developing
and improving processes and managing projects and business change.
