Last Tuesday saw the end of our Annual Review of Employment Law conferences take place in the Stillorgan, and so too the end of another season of events.

Well done to Heather and the team, who made it to Dublin, despite the nasty road conditions. To all the delegates who braved the bad weather to attend the conference and helped end our year on a high with yet another successful day, we say a huge THANK YOU!!

This week everyone is on lockdown, as we have our annual winter training week here on the Island. It got off to a great start with Donna,who did a presentation on "How to be Happy at Work" which provided us with some useful tips (NOT THAT WE NEED THEM). Next up was Kerry on Networking, followed by Vanessa, who gave a detailed brief on "Eventpro". Heather rounded the morning off with an entertaining and lively presentation on "Personalities within a Winning Team".

The training schedule for the rest of the week has been put into jeopardy, thanks to the awful weather conditions, which really took a hold in the afternoon. Here's hoping the sessions go ahead, as the end of the week sees us all heading out for a well deserved Christmas feast before some of my colleagues head off for a lengthy festive break.

I would like to end this weeks blog with wishing everyone a happy and safe Christmas. And if these weather conditions continue, embrace it and get out there and enjoy (who needs the Alps!).
