Join the conversation with fellow culture change champions
Third Wednesday of each month throughout 2020 and 2021 | Sydney
Connecting successful leaders, and culture change champions, and joining them in Conversation. You ask the questions you care about, and have conversations with leaders who are making a difference in their workplaces every day. You get to co-create the discussion.
What is different about #CULTUREBites
When you want to learn a foreign language, the secret is to immerse yourself, surrounding yourself with those who are already fluent, and others who are on the same journey as you, who understand where you are coming from, understand your struggles, and can keep you taking action.
As Simon Sinek says, it’s not about intensity – how long you do something in one hit – but consistency – how regularly you do something. You don’t get strong after going to the gym once for 9 hours, you get strong after going for 20 minutes each day, month after month.
It’s just like that with #CULTUREBites. An initial commitment to intensity is good – that’s our all day #CULTURE immersion – but what really moves the needle is ongoing regular immersion and access to all the support you need.
COMING UP
Look who’s leading the conversation
Damien Mu is the CEO and Managing Director of AIA ANZ and if you catch his LinkedIn feed, you’ll see that AIA Vitality has been supporting AFL’s the Last Time I Cried Series. Mental health is one of the biggest challenges we face as a society, and as an insurer, AIA is seeing increasing numbers of mental health claims each year. Tackling this issue is critical to helping Australians live healthier, longer, better lives.

Conversation Leader:
Damien Mu, CEO and Managing Director of AIA ANZ
This is about you asking the questions you care about and having conversations with leaders who are making a difference in their workplaces every day, not simply sitting and listening to a speaker. You co-create the discussion.
What’s the topic?
Your culture of care and wellness – creating mentally healthy workplaces and communities
At a time of big shifts, our organisation’s health is a paramount concern. Ensuring that team members are supported and cared for becomes not just a matter of retaining talent, but of sustainability for leaders.
It’s time we engage in creating safe spaces for our team to recover, find synergy, and grow despite the pandemic.

THE SESSION DETAILS
Our conversation leader will lead the conversation on:
Your culture of care and wellness – creating mentally healthy workplaces and communities
Date: 19 August 2020
Time: 12 noon to 2pm (Sydney time)
Venue: Zoom
Entry: Only members or prepaid guests can join the session
** GUEST INVESTMENT REDUCED
WHILST WE ARE VIRTUAL **
A lot of people have already secured their #CULTUREBites membership. It’s where we bring together a community of successful professionals and culture mavericks, and connect them in conversation.
And I’ll be honest, it’s not for everyone.
It’s only for people who want to make a real difference, develop their own leadership, learn from those doing it, and positively impact their workplaces. On the 3rd Wednesday of each month, over two hours, we have a different conversation leader, sharing the highs and lows and everything in between.
And most of those who have joined know me. They have seen me in action. They know the quality of what they are getting. That this is not just another event, not just another lunch, not just another networking session … they know it’s a space where they get to have deep conversations about things that matter, with people who they normally wouldn’t get time with. It’s different.
So, you might think that’s something you’d like to join straight away (and we’d love to have you). But if you’d prefer just to come along for one of the lunches first, to try it out … well here’s the sign up form for you to do just that.
You might love it, and want more. And if you don’t … well, you’ll have had a nice lunch and a really interesting conversation with our culture mavericks, and the other leaders in the room.
To join us on a casual basis, it’s $40 plus GST ($44 inclusive of GST) $120 plus GST ($132 inclusive of GST. If you’ve got a coupon code, pop it in the box and the amount will reduce at the checkout.
I look forward to seeing you there.
When’s it happening?
We generally meet on the 3rd Wednesday of each month, with our all-day Immersion #CULTURE2020 taking place in September.
As a Member, you receive preferential access to all the Immersions, the opportunity to bring guests for half the usual investment, all the Conversation Leader materials … and more
