Note this meeting is on a Wednesday due to the ANZAC Day holiday on Monday
NZ Sign Language week is 10 to 16 May and we are lucky to have Erica Dawson from Deaf Aotearoa and Dr Rachel McKee, Programme Director of NZSL Studies at Victoria University coming to give us an introduction to sign language, let us know about NZSL Week and learn a bit about one of our country's official languages!
Join us this month to hear from Write Ltd Consultant Inez Romanos who'll share with us some tips, trick and secrets to minute writing and note taking.
Even though we've all done note and minute taking in some shape or form Write Ltd can offer some new techniques, tips for general note taking, (like when your boss is doing a brain dump in the 2 minutes they have before walking out the door and you need to write it all down!) and some speed reading tips! We'll have time for some q&a as well.
We look forward to seeing you there!

Thinking about what comes next as we recover from COVID-19, people and organisations are anticipating an extended period of disruption, uncertainty and complexity. Remaining flexible and balancing competing demands on attention, energy and time will be fundamental to sustaining both your wellbeing and capacity to thrive. As our response to COVID transitions from an initial sprint, to a long haul, so too our mindset and responses need to evolve.
