Growing your business, it can be hard to trust others with the business you’ve created. Your fears can prevent you from taking an exciting step; collaborating with people in your network who can enable you to offer something new, something you couldn’t do alone, and potentially something that could change your business forever!

In this masterclass we will look at:

• Why and who you should collaborate with, whatever your business model.
• Why you DO need a contractual agreement to collaborate, no matter how much you like each other.
• What’s really stopping you and how to get over yourself.

By the end of the masterclass, you will :

- Be able to consider collaboration for your own business with a clear vision of how it could work.

- Will be able to identify potential collaborators in your existing networks.

- Will know your own excuses and fears and how to challenge them to allow you to start making successful collaborations and learn how to fight them to get started on your first collaborations!

After a very successful corporate career Dinah Liversidge has been supporting the success of entrepreneurs for many years. Now based in Carmarthenshire. We are tremendously honored to have Dinah speak for us!

Why is Dinah Liversidge our expert - Dinah is truly epic for starters!

Dinah Liversidge helps people go from “thinking outside the box”, to “no-box thinking”. Her business and life experiences bring a “what if anything is possible?” perspective to challenging the way we live our lives and un-limit our potential. Using her no-box-thinking approach has allowed Dinah to re-invent her life after massive change and to create a life and a future she was told were not on her horizon.

Her background in Corporate started at SmithKline Beecham as a PA to the Marketing Manager for Anti-infectives, which was to lead to 14 amazing years of opportunity, travel and event management.

Her total belief that “there is no box” have allowed Dinah to overcome several, serious, health challenges along her way, not least a road accident which resulted in eleven years in a wheelchair, and a series of heart-attacks in 2014. Today, walking again, and gardening on her Welsh smallholding, she is living proof of the power of thinking yourself out of a box.

Since 2004, Dinah and her husband John, have been entrepreneurs, setting up and running three successful businesses in diverse sectors, they now live a ‘portfolio lifestyle’ pursuing several of their passions. During this time, Dinah joined the networking organisation, BNI (Business Networking International) and was appointed Managing Area Director for their London North and West region.

Dinah lives in Carmarthenshire in South-West Wales with her husband, John. She offers Mentoring and Coaching to those dealing with massive change and now works as a Celebrant in the local community.

She is passionate about people, conversations, fast cars and chocolate. Learn more here
