7. “It is always about relationship
and trust in the end.”
• To get the business and life you want your ‘being’ must be a part of it.
This is no airy fairy love in – this is heart beating brass tacks. Less
‘doing’, more ‘being’. But what do you want to be?
• We will focus on purposeful deliverables and your ‘being’ clarified as
we get to the heart of our lives and business success in the making.
• All businesses need to grow or adapt. Just as we do. We will talk truths
about smart growth strategies, actionable and measurable, to support
you in your passion to profits goals. Hard questions and ”heart”

From Passion To Infinite Possibilities
• When we are passionate about something, it’s often because we’ve had some
personal experience with it. For some, it’s a result of being talented or gifted in a
particular area, for some it’s a desire to improve upon a product, service or situation
and for others, passion is a result of having endured the undesirable and wanting to
change your outcome. From wherever your passion stems, there is a personal story to
support it and it’s that story that we use in business to capture the attention of our
audience, because people are more interested in why you do something, rather than
what you do.
• During this session, Athena will prompt the conference attendees to identify their
passionate story, find the wisdom in it and learn to share it. Where there is no story,
there is no passion and where there is no passion, there is no profit.

Smart Business Expansion Planning
Business growth and expansion is one of the most talked about subjects in the
entrepreneurial world. It can be good, and it can be bad. It depends. Growth
can create value but if not properly managed growth can destroy
value. There is no “one-size” fits all. However, all business from a child’s
lemonade stand to Lululemon have 4 specific and important areas;
marketing/sales; operations; human resources; and finance. It is important to
the success of the business that they all work together. It is also important to
have the right people, process and controls in place. We will explore just that.
Find out who else is operating in your space, what’s their value proposition,
and how can you do the same or better.
