WE'VE GOT SOME TALENTED SPEAKERS IN THE BUILDING!
PechaKucha Vol 18 saw some very familiar faces on Friday when we listened to many of our brave members speak about a topic important to them in the traditional PechaKucha format.
The PechaKucha 20x20 presentation format is a slide show of 20 images, each auto-advancing after 20 seconds. It’s non-stop, and you’ve got 400 seconds to tell your story, with visuals guiding the way.
Mill Street members Nicole Justice and Daniel Wright were joined by Mill Street friends Seema Barba and Ana Frantz as they covered topics such as brands, recovery and purpose, stepping outside your comfort zone and the power of music.
We're so proud of all of you for taking on the challenge - you smashed it!
For You - Sessions on self-development.
For Your Business - Sessions on developing your business.
For Fun - Erm, we think you get the picture.
For Good - A little bit about the good that we're doing in the building.
