Our next Development Day for Consultants and Trainers will be on 14th March 2008 at Beaufort Park, on the roundabout where the link road south from Chepstow meets the M48, on the western side of the Severn Bridge. This is a new venue for us, and a bright modern fresh building which will stimulate new and creative thoughts! Venue website here.
We are meeting at 9:30 for a 10am start and running through to 4pm. Refreshments and lunch will be provided as usual, and your contribution is £35 plus VAT (£41.13).
Please confirm your attendance, volunteer for a slot, and pass this blog address to anyone you think may be interested in joining us at Development Days.
All the best

Diary Dates for 2008 including Non-Fridays!
Hi everybody!
Part of January's fantastic Development Day was given over to discussing future improvements to these days. one is to make sure we have dates plenty in advance and to mix up the Fridays we have always had with alternating Tuesday events.
So get your diaries out and block out these dates now:
Friday 14th March
Tuesday 6th May
Friday 4th July
Tuesday 9th September
Friday 14th November
Venue for March will be announced soon - somewhere near Chepstow is likely this time. Please volunteer for your slot now - remember you can present some material, run an exercise or lead a discussion on an area of interest to you. Everyone who has taken a slot has found the experience and the feedback invaluable - and you now get a DVD of your slot to analyse at your own private leisure!
I will email you for attendance confirmations once the venue is arranged. All the best!

June 2007 Development Day
Hi Everybody!
We had another useful, fun and inspiring Development Day in April - some new faces, some familiar friends and a fascinating presentation on Corporate Athleticism from Gerrit Bantjes. The subject clearly stimulated everyone's interest, judging from the questions and participation from colleagues. Gerrit received some useful and affirmative feedback from the group as well.
The next Development Day is next Friday 29th June, at Tredomen Business Centre (next door to our usual building).
Development Days are designed to provide us all with CPD, a support resource, networking and business opportunities, and a chance to try out materials and methods in front of an audience that will give you really useful feedback.
Please reply now to let me know whether you will be coming this month. We look forward to seeing you!
The session starts with refreshments at 09:00, and finishes around 16:00. Your contribution to room hire and catering is £41.13 on the day please.
A map of the location is here; we are in the building made of wood and slate - on the map it's the three rectangles together. if looks like this

June Development Day
Hi Folks
The next Development Day for Trainers and Consultants will be on 29th June 2007 in Tredomen. I need you to do the following:
1) Please contact me now if you are interested in running one of the sessions on this day.
2) Put the date in your diary so you can plan client commitments around it!
3) Think of one or two people who might like to attend, and send them a link to this blog!
Last month's Development Day was well attended and received, with several new attendees. For the first time we had video recording as well, to enable the presenters to view their own performances on DVD later, with feedback captured for them.
All the best,
Dave

October 2006 Date and Venue
Hi folks
Team Coaching Network's 9th Development Day for Trainers & Consultants will take place on 6 October 2006 from 09:00 to 16:00 at
Imperial House
Newport
NP10 8UH
As usual, please let me know if you'd like to take a slot. You can indicate your attendance by commenting to the relevant blog entry for each meeting. The day is £30 plus VAT as usual.
I only discovered this venue by visiting a client - it seems there are plenty of venues out there that are not on the general lists! It is a business centre (serviced offices) being run for the Welsh Assembly Government and while the rooms are available, they are not publicised!

Diary Dates
Hi folks!
Team Coaching Network's 7th Development Day for Trainers & Consultants will be held on 7th July 2006 at Springboard Innovation Centre in Llantarnum Business Park in Cwmbran.
Team Coaching Network's 8th Development Day for Trainers & Consultants will be held on 8th September 2006 at Tredomen Innovation Centre in Ystrad Mynach.
Full details of speakers and venues will follow here soon. We hope to feature Julie Thomas and her fascinating talk on "Tarting" - no folks, it's a technique for presenting, not cooking - and Colin Campbell's roundup of the key features of NLP.
Presenting a slot at a Development Day is a great way to try out new material or techniques, and get some really useful and genuine feedback from peers. Please email me if you'd like to have a go on either of these dates.
All the best,
Dave

Development Day Six - 9 June 2006
Thanks to all who attended last week's Development Day in Tredomen!
Sarah gave us a fascinating preview of WHE's new card game. We all enjoyed it; the materials are of fantastic quality, and WHE intend to bring it out as a book and card set some time in the future! We also heard about Sarah and Steve's book, published by CIPD, which you can see at Amazon
Colin gave us some fascinating insights into how NLP can add to the feedback we were giving each other; Julie has promised to give us as presentation on "Tarting" some time in the future.
We also had a facilitated discussion on fees and charging in the afternoon; as soon as the tape comes back, I'll post up the key conclusions.
Details of the July and September Development Days coming soon!
All the best,
Dave
