Opportunity to Connect – Catch Up with the Community

Unfortunately, we had to postpone the NZ case study originally planned for November.
Plus, instead of our usual end-of-year Lean Coffee, I’d now love to invite you all to a relaxed catch-up. Grab a drink, come along, and let’s simply chat.

How was your year? What’s coming up next? Whether you’re unwinding, deflating, celebrating — or anything in between — bring it with you and reconnect with the community.

Looking forward to seeing whoever joins!
