Take the Leap

Jodie Nevid from “The 7 Effect” delivered an interesting workshop on Leadership, performance and engagement. She spoke about how organisations, regardless of size, face the same barriers to achieving ultimate performance levels. She gave us an overview of her program that can help align and grow leadership capabilities of our teams, help develop a proactive culture and embed measurable high performance habits.
