Networking Events' Seminar Topics

Seminar: Why Mediation Matters - The Modern Approach to Conflict Resolution
Presenter - Bernadette Willems - Director - The Mediation Specialist

Bernadette Willems is The Mediation Specialist. She is deeply passionate about helping individuals and businesses navigate challenges with clarity and confidence. Her focus is in facilitating favourable outcomes through constructive dialogue - without the need for lawyers or the courts. Mediation is a powerful tool that can resolve issues quickly, reduce stress, and save you time and money.


With nearly three decades of experience in mediation and coaching, along with her own previous experience as a solicitor she has seen how poor communication often lies at the root of conflicts. Whether you are facing divorce, managing a business, or handling a workplace dispute, she believes the key to overcoming challenges lies in how we communicate.


Her unique approach blends constructive dialogue with mindful mediation, helping you develop the skills to communicate effectively and find lasting solutions. She works with you to build stronger relationships, resolve conflicts, and avoid legal battles by focusing on positive, solution-oriented conversations.

Seminar: Getting Out Of Your Own Way, Success to Business and Life
Presenter - Sarah Alsawy-Davis - Psychologist - Relationship Success Lab
Do you really know who you are? There are many different personality tests that businesses use but many of these are flawed with limited reliability and consistency. However, there is one psychological test that has stood the test of time (since the 14th Century) - looking at 9 different traits. In this presentation Sarah will guide you through a quick quiz assessment to recognise your most apparent 2 or 3 personality traits, along with their strengths and shadows which ultimately block your growth to the next level. And guess what - your growth is through the blockage of the shadow, not by resisting it. You will leave the seminar with at 1 big technique to remove any limiting beliefs and expand your mindset, promoting resilience and strength.

Great friendly atmosphere with a servant leadership culture. I attended my first meeting in November and already had 4 follow up sessions in the following week. Well worth joining.
