Great Returners Programme Session 2: Being Present- 30 April 2026 In Session 2 of our fantastic Great Returners Programme, we explored what it truly means to be present and what gets in the way, whether that ' s the pull of an overloaded inbox, the next case / matter on your mind, or the pressure to always be performing. Using a simple but powerful model, delegates left armed with tools they could use straight away to achieve a higher quality of presence whether at home or at work.
IWIRC @ INSOLLON26- 23 April 2026 Our joint IWIRC @ INSOLLON26 breakfast was a resounding success and sell-out event with 200 tickets sold and a buzzing atmosphere. Attendees, many of whom had connected during the preceding INSOL International London conference or were IWIRC members eager to meet the London network, enjoyed a vibrant morning of networking.
The event also offered a unique cultural experience with tickets to the " Queen Elizabeth II: Her Life in Style " exhibition at the King ' s Gallery, Buckingham Palace. The breakfast at Timmy Green, followed by the gallery visit, created an uplifting and inspiring end to INSOL London 2026. Many thanks to Kroll for sponsoring this memorable event.
