Negotiation - The Art of Influencing Outcomes
Sat, Aug 8, 6:00 AMHow often do you put yourself last - letting others take the credit, have the benefit, or cut in front of the queue just because they asked? While there are certainly times when being considerate is the right choice, there are times when there is no reason to NOT stand up for yourself. No more staying safe, staying silent, or simply going with the flow. It's time you advocate for YOU and what you care about, because what you stand for, matters. This game-changing session gives you the chance to practice real negotiation skills through a series of fun, low-stake simulations that will help you become more confident in advocating up for yourself anytime, anywhere, with anyone. **WHO THIS IS FOR** * people who want to get ahead in life * people who want to communicate with greater confidence * entrepreneurs, business owners, and corporate professionals **WHAT YOU WILL GET** * more stamina when it comes to negotiating * meaning connections with people who remind you of what you're about * real conviction and passion to make decisions that serve your needs best **ABOUT THE HOSTS** ***Melissa Paris*** is an arts educator, director, performer, and facilitator with over 20 years of experience across higher education and the creative industries.

The New Blueprint of Leadership for Women in Business
Wed, Aug 5, 1:00 AMThe old models of leadership are no longer enough. Many capable women in business are not held back by a lack of skill, ambition, or experience, but by inherited ways of leading that no longer fit the complexity of who they are, what they carry, and how they are being called to lead today. Leadership can often feel like a constant balancing act between confidence and self-doubt, strength and softness, visibility and authenticity, carrying responsibility while trying not to carry it all. This 4-part masterclass series is designed for women in business who are ready to lead with more confidence, clarity, and influence without feeling like they need to become someone they are not. Hosted by Western Sydney Startup Hub in partnership with Carole Issa, Founder of Leadership Activators and creator of the Active Leader Pathway, this series blends practical leadership tools, deeper self-awareness, and real-world strategies to help you strengthen how you lead from the inside out. Whether you are a founder, business owner, startup leader, consultant, or ambitious professional, this series will help you build stronger leadership foundations that create authentic influence, clearer communication, and more sustainable impact. **This Series Is For You If You:** * Are a founder, business owner, startup leader, consultant, or ambitious professional * Are excellent at what you do, but know that modern leadership requires more than technical skill * Find yourself carrying too much, overthinking decisions, or avoiding certain conversations * Want to lead with more confidence and influence without changing who you are * Want practical leadership tools that feel authentic, grounded, and relevant to todayโs business world * Are looking to connect with other women who are building, leading, and growing in business **Event Details** ๐ Western Sydney Startup Hub ๐ Wednesdays: 5th, 12th, 19th & 26th August 2026 (4 sessions) โฐ 11:00 AM โ 1:00 PM **Your Investment** $47 per person for the full 4-part masterclass series. Your ticket includes all four sessions, practical leadership tools, light refreshments, and opportunities to connect with other women in business in a relaxed networking setting. **About Carole Issa** Carole Issa is the Founder of Leadership Activators and creator of the Active Leader Pathway, a practical leadership framework designed to help leaders strengthen emotional intelligence, communication, trust, and influence. Through her work, Carole helps business owners, founders, managers, and professionals lead with greater confidence, clarity, and impact without feeling like they need to abandon who they are in the process. ๐๏ธ Register to attend: [https://events.humanitix.com/the-new-blueprint-of-leadership-for-women-in-business-at-wssh](https://events.humanitix.com/the-new-blueprint-of-leadership-for-women-in-business-at-wssh)
