Small is the New Big: Practical Steps to Cultivating Joyful Teams

Feeling the pressure of expectations flying at you from every direction? You’re not alone. But here’s something powerful: joy and resilience at work aren’t about waiting for perfect conditions – they’re about intentionally shaping the conditions you have.

Join , creator of "WorkJoy," and , author of "Do Sweat the Small Stuff," for a refreshingly practical and uplifting evening designed specifically for busy leaders like you.

This isn’t another coping strategies session or a reminder of how challenging the world can be. Instead, it's a hands-on, joyful exploration of the tiny, yet transformational actions you can take every day. Learn how deliberately cultivating small moments of joy and consciously paying attention to micro-behaviours can shift the culture around you, helping you and your teams thrive, even amidst uncertainty and change.

Together, Beth and Sarah will guide you through:

• Why joy at work isn’t fluffy, it’s essential fuel for sustainable resilience and performance, as well as being culture-building gold-dust.
• How sweating the small stuff, the conversations, habits, and daily interactions, can become your best tool for creating joyful, high-performing teams.
• Practical, real-world strategies to infuse your leadership approach with intentional joy, helping your team feel energised, connected, and purposeful – no matter what pressures come your way.

Expect inspiration, provocation, laughter, and immediately useful ideas. If you want to move beyond simply getting by and start intentionally shaping a workplace culture where everyone (including you!) can thrive, this evening is for you. Join us to transform pressure into possibility and discover how small, joyful actions create big, lasting impacts.

You'll walk away with:

• A refreshed, optimistic understanding of joy as an intentional leadership strategy
• A practical toolkit of small, impactful actions proven to create joyful workplace cultures, resilience, and performance boosts.
• Immediate strategies for positively shifting team culture, reducing overwhelm, and proactively managing pressures.
• Inspiration, connection, energy, and motivation to confidently shape better working environments – right from the next day.

And because joy deserves celebrating, your ticket also includes a glass of something bubbly (non-alcoholic fizz also available) and delicious nibbles as we mingle and connect at the end of the evening – plus, of course, all the brilliance of Beth and Sarah live in the room.
