Shifting the frantic, presented by Dr Stephen Kearney of Umbrella (https://umbrella.org.nz)
In our modern, hyper-connected, “always on” world, many people describe feeling constantly frantic, overwhelmed and as if they are constantly playing catch-up. At Umbrella, we hear comments like:
I’m always in meetings… The pace here is full on……. it’s hard to slow it down…. If we can just get through this next busy patch...
Come and check out the new Rydges Wellington Airport Hotel accommodation and meeting rooms! Rydges have invited us and will provide some drinks and nibbles while we check out this great new addition to the city. This is an additional event for PACE members to attend outside of our usual monthly meetings.
Please arrange your own transport, and utilise the dashboard on the PACE website to carpool if you're able.
FREE PARKING will be provided - Rydges will validate all standard airport parking.

Last year’s mid-winter dinner was such a success we are holding the event again this year. Join us at Logan Brown Restaurant, catch-up with your PACE colleagues and enjoy a delicious dinner and drinks.
Logan Brown will be serving their Bistro Set Menu, which is normally priced at $50, however due to the prudent management of funds by the PACE management team, we are able to subside the cost and pass on a $15 saving to our members. Therefore, the dinner will only cost you $35, plus a complimentary glass of bubbles on arrival.
When: Wednesday 26 June | 5.30pm – 7.30pm

Unconscious Bias, Gender and the Workplace: Unconscious biases are preferences that inform our judgements, behaviors and decisions. Unconscious bias is typically automatic, based on stereotypes, and is triggered by our brain making quick judgements about people. Biases are influenced by our cultural and personal experiences. Unconscious bias can be particularly problematic when it conflicts with, and therefore undermines, the equity goals organizations are consciously committed to.
5.30 pm Arrival and drinks/canapés in main foyer.
6.00 pm Marie McCafferty, Residence and Event Manager, will talk about the type of events that can be held at Homewood and the services that are available. She will also give a tour of the venue.
