OUR TOPIC: NO NUMERACY, NO PROFITS – KNOW NUMERACY, KNOW PROFITS – 3 ways you are losing money you don’t even notice

How would you like to:

Catch potential problems earlier so they don’t grow?
Increase individual employee efficiency up to 15%?
Make employee’s day-to-day actions more focused?
Identify and capitalize on opportunities earlier?
Develop better more comprehensive metrics?
Customize your reports to be more effective?
Improve your strategic planning and goals?
Gain better control over expenses?
Improve your bottom line?

What can you do to produce this incredible range of benefits? The answer lies in becoming numerate: effectively understanding and using the number information you already have. Most of your staff are not financially literate. Learn what it is costing you and what you can do about it.

Mike Fletcher is a CPA/CGA with over forty years of varied business experience on four continents doing all sorts of financial training. His passion now is the broader issue of numeracy, helping people understand and use the number information they already have, no math, no bookkeeping, no jargon.

Lake Links 2019 will be held on SATURDAY, OCTOBER 26 @ the Perth Civitan Hall.

Join us for the 18th Annual Lake Links workshop to learn about the many citizen science initiatives available to you. Keynote speaker, Kat Kavanaugh of the Water Rangers, will deliver this year’s theme: Enhancing, Restoring & Exploring: Applications for Citizen Science on Your Lake.

What is Lake Links?

 
Lake Links is a one-day workshop held every October, in Perth, Ontario. It attracts citizens and scientists to share ways we can help sustain our lakes and rivers. Individuals spread across five watersheds in Eastern Ontario (and beyond) attend this day-long event to learn, network and see what’s new. Each year we address the lake and river issues that matter most to our communities with expert speakers, breakout sessions, and dynamic presentations. Watersheds Canada is just one of the many organizations that make Lake Links possible. Each year we receive support from various partners across the environmental sector.

Playing at Full Circle Theatre, and presented by Barn Door Productions, “THE ADMIRABLE CRICHTON” plays October 11, 12, 17, 18, 19, 24, 25 and 26 at 8pm, and October 13, 20 and 27 at 2pm. J.M. Barrie, of course, wrote Peter Pan and some see this earlier play as a sort of warm-up for that – a group of upper crust Brits (and their servants) arrive on a dessert island to find that tables can be turned. A delightful, laugh-out-loud comedy. Think of Gilligan’s Island with British accents, and a touch of Downton Abbey thrown in! It’s the most genteel of class wars, and it involves a lot of tea!

Reserved tickets $20; Door $22; Students $10; payment by cash at performance.
