6:00 pm (UK time)

NOVUS, the Insurance Institute of Cardiff's young professionals group, invite you to join their upcoming Summer BBQ networking event where Jeff Heasman will share with us the 5 Communication Habits of Highly Effective Insurance & Financial Services Professionals.

The insurance industry and financial services sector have never been so competitive. Poor communication skills make things even more difficult than they need to be. This session will look at 5 communication habits that make insurance and financial services professionals highly effective in their day-to-day work with the result that they retain business and win new business.

Attendees will be greeted to the event with a welcome drink and after the presentation will be treated to a BBQ on the terrace outside the venue. There will also be plenty of opportunity to network with other guests both before and after the presentation.

In addition to the main presentation, the Novus team are also fundraising for our chosen charity, City Hospice.

Alternatively, you can check out our upcoming fundraising events and donate via our Just Giving page here.
