A new word entered my vocabulary last week, courtesy of business network Linkedin. Apparently, many of us who are networking online in the UK have problems with our 'frolleagues'.

Releasing Your Full Potential

Releasing Your Potential was the title of a special 2 day programme delivered by NLP expert, Sue Knight, to members of Academy Group 2 (the London/Hertfordshire experiential learning group of The Academy for Chief Executives). For the first time, members' partners also attended for part of the session - in total 28 attendees. The outcome was for each and every delegate to receive a profound piece of learning that they could take back and use within their businesses or homelife.
