The January Agency Local BookClub is How to be a Six Star Business.
This is a book with 22 authors contributing their collective wisdom to create a knowledge bank and a guide to some of the best practices when running and growing a business. This is not specific to creative and marketing agencies, however the principles discussed are as relevant to agencies as they are to other businesses.
6 Star Concept
The concept of striving to be a 6 Star Business is a great one. Why settle for 5 stars as per the normal ratings? When 6 Stars will put you above the rest – make you stand out and be distinctive. This is how your business will grow and take off.
It is this idea that attracted me to the 6 Star community. I loved this aspiration.
My contribution
I was extremely honoured when asked to contribute a chapter to the book, and of course I jumped at the chance.
My passion is helping people – as is the objective of this book. So being able to contribute a part was amazing. Being in the company of some extraordinary people was humbling.
The book covers so many different areas including:
Culture, purpose, love, profitability, legacy, community, collaboration, self worth, story telling to name a few.
Agency Local Book Club
It would have been very remiss of me not to name this book – How to be a 6 Star Business – as the book of the month for January!
The purpose of the book club is to promote continual learning as I outlined in this post here.
As a Christmas gift and to provide some inspiration for the new Year every member of the Agency Local Community received a copy of the book.
This was partly to provide inspiration to improve an aspect of their business but it also came with an invitation to the BookClub meeting on 1st February. No excuses now!
Note: As I keep saying – you don’t have to have read the book to attend the BookClub meeting as the value is totally in the conversation around the key messages in the book.
BookClub meeting with a difference.
A couple of times last year we had BookClub meetings with the Authors and these were brilliant.
So this month I am getting as many of the Authors that contributed to the 6 Star Business book to join us. At the time of writing we have 11 authors joining us including: Aveline Clarke, Our very own Remeny Armitage, Endre Hoffmann, Gorgie Hope, Rob Drummond, Cristina Castro, Alan Wick, David hubbard, Chris Thornhill.
Some of the authors are based in Australia and they are taking the time to join us late in their evening. This will be a great session.
Join Us – Put the date in your diary
Everyone is welcome to join us at the BookClub meeting – enjoy the discussion around the key topics in the book – quiz the authors to go deeper – there are some wonderful minds coming to the meeting – this is your opportunity to tap in, learn something that will improve your business in 2022.
See you there!
