THE latest meeting of Prestwich Business Forum was well attended with several new faces adding new blood.

September's meeting welcomed two interesting and diverse speakers.

Malcolm Joels gave Forum members an insight into non-paper-based business planning. He reminded delegates to give themselves some quality time to reflect on their businesses in order to plan for the future.

Second speaker was Glenn Brooks who livened up the meeting with his unique blend of ice-breakers and workshop-type presentation.

This was the first in a trilogy of presentations by him in which he explained how brain-storming (sparking) can ignite a plethora of ideas to overcome a business problem.

He also explained how the fishbone technique of problem-solving could be applied to businesses.

Prestwich Business Forum hopes to see everyone on October 5 when one of the guest speakers will be Declan Slattery.
