Summary
It's brunch time! Join the CIEEM Freelance Practitioner SIG for regular informal discussions focusing on the challenges and opportunities that being freelance or part of a very small business brings. Each virtual brunch will cover a different topic.
Description
This brunch will provide an opportunity to discuss with fellow freelancers or wannabes the country-specific issues on starting or practicing as a freelance consultant or very small business. Each country has differences in legislation, policy, culture and ecology. We will talk about what it's like being a freelancer in your own geographic area without getting distracted by topics more relevant to others. This is your chance to discuss what really matters to you where you live and work.
Where you feel comfortable, your engagement as a participant will help make the most of the time we have by broadening and deepening the discussion, and by including 'real-life' examples. Please come prepared with any items you’d like to talk about - as the saying goes, a problem shared is a problem halved. Each event is held in confidence in order to encourage free and frank discussion and will not be recorded, so please do attend on the day.
While we respect there is competition in the freelancing world, we all share a common goal, to protect the environment for nature and people. We hope you will join us and be a stronger part of the freelance community within our sector. See you there!
