Learn secrets to increase your effectiveness and discover the skills to get real results in your business with master communicator Chris Helder in Bairnsdale on Monday, August 5.

East Gippsland Shire Council will host Chris at a business breakfast where he will address how businesses can ‘cut the noise’ and focus and prioritise to maximise their potential.

The breakfast, to be held at the Bairnsdale Sporting and Convention Centre from 7.45 to 9.30am, is part of the month-long Gippsland Business Festival funded by the Victorian Government.

Mayor, Cr Natalie O’Connell said the presentation by such a highly sought-after speaker was another opportunity provided by Council for the business community to learn about how communication, influence, human potential, leadership and mastering the face-to-face customer experience can deliver real results in business.

“Chris has worked with business such as Citibank, Toyota, Mercedes Benz, Levi's and many more all over the world,” Cr O’Connell said.

“His knowledge and experience will inspire you to turn thoughts into action and allow your workplace to reach new heights.”

Chris is also the author of three bestselling books, including Useful Belief - one of the highest selling Australian business books of all time.

“Today, the pressures of running your own business can feel overwhelming with another item on the to-do list, and constantly trying to stay ahead of the curve,” Cr O’Connell said.

“In this high energy session learn the secrets to increase your effectiveness, cut the noise and discover the activities that will give you real results in your business. We can’t wait to see you there.”
