BBC Friday 6 October 2017 – Open Mic Friday Business Roundtable

AKG Perception 120 USB condenser microphone with SH 100 shock mountJoin us this Friday for an exciting blustery autumn OPEN MIC business sharing, storytelling, and problem solving strategy roundtable.

Play, share, tell tall tales. Bring a business story to share — who you are, why you love doing what you do, what you’ve learned along the way, where you’re going, your business dreams (dream interpretation/analysis not guaranteed). Have a business problem? BBC can be “your board of directors.”

Play, share, learn, dream … fall asleep. A total BBC-OXp adventure!  Remember, at the BBC, “We don’t exist, but we’re there for you.”

Quite a few of us here at the BBC are LinkedIn netizens. Here is piece from inc.com on the subject of “real networking”: inc.com/nicolas-cole/1-networking-rule-99-percent-of-people-are-afraid-to-follow-but-should.html (isn’t that kinda what we do?). Being as October is National Cybersecurity Awareness Month, here’s the notice from US-Cert & the NCSA, including some tips to help one increase cybersecurity awareness:
us-cert.gov/ncas/current-activity/2017/10/03/National-Cybersecurity-Awareness-Month-Simple-Steps-Online-Safety.

So invite your friends and associates to come join us for this exciting non-virtual non-cloud event in real time and real space…and another delicious cup of BBC!

Be here, be free, be businesswise. For, in a sense, me hearties, as serial entrepreneurials, we all be business wise!
