We in the FIA Events department are experiencing that annual buzz that comes with the entry stage of the FLAME awards – it’s great how enthusiastic all manner of facilities have been already about the FLAME process. The main question on everyone’s lips at the moment is: “How can we WIN??” Well obviously we can’t answer that question – cheating is certainly not a quality that we look for in a FLAME winner… But to help you on your way this year, we will be running FLAME Training Workshops (run by our very own FLAME assessors), which will be invaluable in learning tips on what Fitness Leadership & Management Excellence really looks like. The workshop not only offers a great opportunity to grasp a real understanding of the ins and outs of the FLAME process, but it will also act as a consultation session for your facility (regardless of whether you enter the awards or not). Our distinguished FLAME assessors; Tory Brettell and Rebecca Weissbort, are well-known experts in the industry (internationally) with over 40 years of experience between them at all levels in creating, assessing and coaching excellence – a session with them will revitalise your business! These workshops will run in December 09 – January 10 – call 020 7420 8578 for further details or visit the website.
As always there is lots going on at the FIA at the moment; a new batch of seminars on Exercise and Nutrition launch next week, our Fit For the Future programme is being reviewed by number 10, go is steadily expanding across counties and the MoreActive4Life campaign is nearly ready to go…
Lisa Taylor (from MEND) came to visit us last week to brief the team on the material that has been put together for the MoreActive4Life 2010 Campaign – it really is amazing and motivating stuff! I’m genuinely excited about the campaign (all of the tools that accompany it are spot on!) and can’t wait to be a campaign guinea pig! I hope the rest of the industry is as enthusiastic about this as I am and we really can oversee a behaviour change nationally that sees exercise becoming a habit rather than a chore.
