Cole Connect: FACTS Elevate, AISNSW and TASScon
The Cole team spent time meeting new friends that are interested in getting a better grasp on their business functions at their schools and re-connecting with old friends. For us, it's all about relationships; the cultivation of strong, affirming relationships that just make schools operate smoother. We also took the opportunity to strengthen our strong relationships with FACTS, AISNSW, and TASS and the great people that make these organisations work so well.
Just some numbers:
Over 18,000 km travelled, 5 days of networking, 12 staff, 2 Gala events, 3 presentations, over 7500 words in those presentations, 500+attendees, and 100+ stress apples given away (I think our staff may have deserved some).
Schools from all over have heard about our new services and on the importance of engaging more than just one team when reviewing your eco-system. They have been privy to some tips and tricks to get the best out of your systems, some insightful thoughts on finance, and given an understanding that People, Policies, Programmes and Partnerships are all part of the "secret sauce" that keeps your school running.
