SUMMARY:Building a Marketing Engine for Growth
DESCRIPTION:“Marketing is fluffy” / “Some marketing works and some does not – I have no idea which bits work” / “How do I grow?” / “Why is it important?” / “What is the Return on Investment?”. \nThese are just some of the questions that business owners and leaders typically ask us…. \nThe strategic marketing workshop with MD2MD is customised to the growth challenges YOU are seeing in YOUR businesses. Utilising the marketing surveys that many of you have completed we have aggregated your results to identify topics that are working well\, and the topics that are more challenging for you. Consequently\, through targeting the content\, and facilitating discussions among you in breakout sessions\, we will ensure practical and relevant insight that you can take back with you to help your business thrive.

SUMMARY:Success by Design
DESCRIPTION:In demanding leadership roles\, it’s easy to set big goals and then get swept into the day-to-day\, defaulting to habits driven by urgency rather than intention. The result? Goals drift\, energy drains\, and you never quite hit your potential. But what if you could design your goals and the systems to achieve them in a way that fuels your energy rather than depletes it? \nThis interactive\, half-day session draws on practical tools and high-impact mindset shifts from the book By Design Not Default. Leaders will learn how to set motivating and meaningful goals and then design the habits\, environments\, and systems to make them stick. Through guided exercises\, strategic discussion\, and peer collaboration\, participants will identify their derailers\, build habit resilience and flexibility\, and leave with a clear\, actionable plan to pursue goals with consistency and confidence.
