The Secret to Building a 7-figure Business

Online

Too many women are hustling the joy right out of their business, and it’s costing them money. They work longer and longer hours struggling to get ahead and grow their brand... They put up with nightmare clients who suck up their time and steal their sanity... They tone down their magic trying to be everything for everybody… Maybe you can relate. Before I cracked the code and built a 7-figure business that I ADORE, I did all those things too. In fact, I hustled so hard I literally made myself sick. Then everything came to a screeching halt — including my cash flow. That’s when I met a teacher who showed me the real way to build lasting, reliable revenue. Now, I’ve put together a free Masterclass to show you how to do it too. It all comes down to one small change that creates an incredibly lucrative domino effect for your entire brand.

Mastering the Employee Experience: Included and Engaged

Online

Creating an inclusive and engaging workplace is challenging, especially in our world today. Whether our workplaces are in-person, hybrid or remote, every workplace wants to create a successful and productive culture, but we don't always know how. In this 60 minute presentation, Roman 3 will address the importance of employee engagement and inclusion, as well as the common mistakes we make when trying to create both. We will describe what can happen when we stop addressing them as separately and start thinking of them as two sides of the same coin. We will leave you with clear and tangible examples of what success needs to look like in order to create a workplace that makes everyone feel respected, trusted, encouraged, and inspired. We will also look to engage as much input and questions from participants and use as many real-life examples as possible to ensure that all information is practical and meaningful to everyone in attendance.
