Read business, personal development or non-fiction books?
Looking for ideas for books to read, or would like to recommend books to others?
Interested in connecting with, and getting to know, other local business owners?
Books & Networking are small, relaxed and informal networking events with a book theme - an opportunity to meet other business owners, share knowledge and discuss the books you are currently reading.
As with any other networking meeting, there will be an opportunity for general business discussions, networking and getting to know everyone.
Everyone will have an opportunity to discuss which books they are currently reading (or ask for book recommendations), share knowledge, and discuss goals and what they have learned from the books they are reading.
Don't worry if you are not currently reading a book - this could be an opportunity to ask for a book recommendation, or get ideas from what everyone else is reading.
This month our guest speaker is Andrew Smith, who will be talking about his new book, "Cows, Not Cow".
(Don't worry if you haven't read "Cows, Not Cow" - this will be a great opportunity to learn more about the book, and our meeting will still be in the "no specific book" spirit!)
Whether you are a sole trader working from home, or a company owner, you are welcome to attend. As not everyone uses Facebook, anyone who is not a member of the book group on Facebook is welcome to attend as well.
By the end of the meeting you will have networked and met other business owners, identified goals and knowledge and ideas for books to read to help your business.
