The Whitsundays Chamber of Commerce and Industry has announced a revised program for the 2024 Whitsunday Business Conference, seizing the opportunity to host a shorter event on Thursday 16 May 2024 to coincide with a visit from the Queensland Small Business Commissioner to our region.
Join us 1pm-4:30pm Thursday 16 May at Mantra Club Croc, Cannonvale to take part of a number of timely and provocative conversations on the following topics with other local business owners on:
- What are your business pain points?
- Supercharge your People Power with top tips on how to deal with changing staff attitudes and work ethic, young employees through to an ageing workforce, finding stability with transient workers and staff turnover, and diversity and inclusion in small business.
- Don’t tell me it can’t be done! Stories and strategies on re-inventing your business, rejecting challenges and overcoming limitations, and how to lead your team to exceed expectations.
- Have your say on the 2025 Conference.
The program will be followed by a meet and greet event 5pm-7pm at the Mantra Club Croc, hosted by the Whitsunday Regional Council, with the Queensland Small Business Commissioner to better understand her role and discuss challenges and opportunities facing small business in our region.
