Upping Your Elvis via Chris Baréz-Brown – Professional Motivational Speaker and Author
Do you truly love your life and everything that you do, or are you simply going through the motions and existing on auto-pilot? Unfortunately, too many of us say we want to improve parts, or even all of our lives, but when it comes to actually doing something different we are either too afraid or too lazy. Instead we settle for the hum-drum and continue doing things as we always have. When you keep doing the same thing, you simply cannot expect different results. What so often happens within the world of work as well as many other aspects of...

How to Engage Your Staff to Strengthen Your Business with RDO8 Guest Speaker Rebecca Jones
There are many people that have great ideas for a business, new innovations that they dream about developing and different ways to improve existing organisations. Often the only thing holding back individuals from realising these ambitions and succeeding rather than giving up and not taking a risk, is their worries about what other people think.

The focus at the core of every talk that Rebecca Jones gives is that by changing our mindsets, we can overcome this self doubt and achieve so...
Purpose Beyond Profit with RDO8 Guest Speaker Geoffrey Breeze – Executive Director, World Travel & Tourism Council
The Travel & Tourism industry represents one of the most significant sectors of the global economy, “supporting 292 million jobs and generating 10.2% of global GDP.” Clearly this industry is so much more important than merely trivial leisure pursuit, but something that literally hundreds of millions of people depend upon for their daily livelihoods. In addition to economic development though, those who work in tourism every day are also helping to share cultures and build mutual understanding which is ultimately helping to create a more peaceful world. 2017 was declared the International Year of Sustainable Tourism for Development by the...
Discover the Wonderful CLC World Charity Holidays Programme
A holiday is something that many families look forward to and even expect on an annual basis. For those lucky enough, they are even able to enjoy multiple vacations per year. Unfortunately, not every family is so fortunate due to a number of different pressures such as financial, health or time restraints. This is often especially the case for carers who dedicate so much of their time looking after other members of their family. CLC World believes (as do we) that holidays are an extremely important aspect of life for families to gain some much needed downtime together, and...
Selling Travel Experiences Online – How to Get 6% More with RDO8 Guest Speaker Daniel Bensley
Leisure travel businesses and marketing organisations have long pondered what exactly motivates individuals to book the vacations they do. Why do they choose certain hotels or resorts over others? What factors lead to them deciding to head to one destination rather than another? What causes them to choose different excursions, restaurants, or activities while they are on their holiday? These are all factors related to the overall concept of leisure-travel and vacations which ultimately is a highly experience based activity with many complicated influences affecting a tourist or traveller’s decision making process. To be able to better understand what influences...
Baby Boomers – the Ultimate Upgrade? Presented by RDO8 Guest Speakers Lisa Migani and Peter Robinson
These days, as Europeans live longer and longer lives, they increasingly enjoy more leisure time during both their semi-retirement and full retirement years. Many people can now enjoy a further 20-30 years life after retirement and due to improvements in healthcare and standard of living, are more than able to enjoy active lifestyles, filled with travel. Because of this, many ageing Europeans are no longer content just to simply sit around watching TV or staying at home gardening. Instead many are choosing new and diverse housing options later in life, as they are free from responsibilities like children and jobs....
