The new autumn PA Conference will take place at: London, etc.venues, St Pauls – 200 Aldersgate. How to get there.
Please find below your programme for the day:
Session 1: The Power of Profile with Vanessa Vallely
Personal profile can be one of the most powerful elements in your business armoury, but you have to know what tools and techniques will help you build it, protect it and drive your success. Culturally, many people are brought up not to “toot your own horns” or “shout about our successes”, but in today’s highly competitive world if you don’t stand out you’re likely to watch those with profile pass you by on their way to the top.
Throughout this interactive and practical session Vanessa will share stories from her career about how she rose from project analyst to COO and launched two successful businesses in less than six years. Vanessa will provide the top tips she’s picked up in corporates, as an entrepreneur and as a network leader on how to become comfortable with raising your profile, including:
Session 2: Earning your Place at the Table – Making an Impact in Meetings and Note Taking with Dani Littlejohn
Session 3: The Magic Ingredient to Wellbeing with Lorraine Groves
How flexible are you? Before you straighten your legs and bend over to touch your toes, I don’t mean physical flexibility but psychological flexibility. We live in one of the most exciting times in history, with rapidity of change, however this can bring ambiguity, stress, anxiety or confusion. When we lack the skills to be flexible in our approach, or are unwilling to change the things that aren’t working for us, things can seem overwhelming. It is easy to get stuck in place. How we adapt to the demands of life affects our wellbeing.
This session will cover:
Session 4: The Magical Spell of NOWww with Lorraine Grove
A spell is a set of words that are spoken or unspoken, which are considered to invoke a magical effect. The magical spell of NOWww is a brief yet highly effective breathing exercise that can be done anywhere, at any time and uses our five senses to bring awareness to the present moment to increase wellbeing. We are already in the Now, but not always aware of being in the Now. Using your breath and your five senses as focus, you can notice how your body feels right now; be open to your current experience (and observe); and be willing to experience everything as it is, to allow your body and brain to come together as a whole, which promotes wellbeing.
N – notice
O – openness (to experience; observe)
W – willing (be willing to experience everything as it is, and accept things as they are, without trying to change them)
w – whole (allow the body and brain to come together as a whole)
w – wellbeing
NOWww, what would your magical spell be to bring awareness to the present moment?
Session 5: Taking the Reins: Game Changing Ways to Manage your Manager
We all have to work with a boss, but sometimes they don’t see things in the quite the same way as us. This session will look at the different ways our brains can look at a problem or situation and how we look to solve it. By using these techniques we can help our boss succeed and feel that we have had a positive influence on the situations.
This will help us ‘Manage our Manager’ for optimum results
The session will cover:
Session 6: Abracadabra : The Magic of Words with Lindsay Taylor
“Words have a power, a magic to them that can transport you to a different place; that can evoke feelings, sounds, movements and images. One word, no matter how many letters it contains, how many syllables or beats there are to it, can hold vast meaning. One word, spoken or heard, can create a wave of implications and consequences. Consequences good or bad. Implications positive or negative. Magic.” Lindsay Taylor
At this interactive session we will explore The Magic of Words. You will learn:
Session 7: Time and Self Management for the Busy Office Professional with Ian Caldecourt
We all feel stretched and there is always so much to do! Balancing work and life isn’t always easy but essential to succeed in your career. This session will cover how to manage your time, both in and out of work, so you get the most out of your day.

It is the common denominator in the rise of economic oppression, violence against women, gender pay gap, racism, fascism, institutional sexual harassment, hostile environment and Brexit. Mostly impacting marginalised groups of people in the United Kingdom who are the many not the few.
With the imminence of Brexit, we want austerity to end and are demanding specific assurances from the UK government. It is time to eliminate the dividing line betweenthe ‘Haves’ and ‘Have Nots’. Equality demands that we all get to thrive and not justsurvive. We demand Prosperity not Austerity.
Protesters will join the #WeAreChange call for action which is (i) a PLEDGE to protect and serve each other with love, unity and solidarity; (ii) a PROMISE to exercise our civic duty to vote in every circumstance that will shape a progressive society; and (iii) a CONVICTION to call out any racism or form of phobia we see online and offline.
The Bread & Roses Jan 19 rally will replicate the defiance and celebration of previousmarches and rallies by Women’s March London, which led to thousands of people taking to the streets of central London. It will see people from diverse communities, faiths, sex, race, political affiliations and backgrounds stand up and show up to speak with one voice #WeAreChange.

Who is this for?
These events are for creative, intelligent, ambitious women (i.e. iconic women!) who are self-employed and run, or want to run, their own businesses, either full-time or as a side hustle. Does this sound like you?
What is it all about?
It’s a meeting of up to 20 likeminded ladies and a space to share expertise, ask questions, grow in confidence and widen your social circle in a relaxed and positive setting. There will be at least one inspiring woman sharing her journey and top tips for success with us each month – it could even be you!
Why did it start?
Simply because I couldn’t find a networking event in central London like this and with women like me. I knew there must be more of us adventurers out there and I wanted to meet them. I also got a bit fed up of explaining what a portfolio career is and why I was leaving a well-paid, stable job to be my own boss, with no guaranteed income.
When are meetings?
Meetings take place on the first Thursday evening of each month at 7-9pm.
Where do we meet?
We meet in the Dining Room upstairs at The Plumber’s Arms, just a few minutes from Victoria Station.
What are the costs?
There is no joining fee and and you even get a free glass of wine or a soft drink thrown in for good measure.
