Great little 9 hole short beginners course - my first hole-in-one

Where are my golfers? I’m excited for this event…you know I specialise in leadership training but did you know there are SO many similarities between golf and being a leader? Playing golf has taught me so much about leadership! 🏌️♂️ Just like in golf, being a great leader means staying focused, being patient, and thinking strategically. Here are a few lessons golf has reinforced: 1. **Preparation is Key**: Just as I practice my swing, leaders must prepare for meetings and projects. 2. **Adaptability**: Weather changes on the course, and business conditions change too. Adapt and keep moving forward. 3. **Patience and Resilience**: Not every shot lands where you want it. Learn from mistakes and stay resilient. Both golf and leadership are continuous journeys of improvement. Let's keep refining our skills and striving for excellence! See you in June at the Whitby Chamber of Commerce golf event at Royal Ashburn Golf Club #Leadership #Golf #ContinuousLearning #Resilience #leadershiptraining #teetime #supportlocal #chamberofcommerce #businessowner #whitby

Kicking off our new social strategy this month, with lots of new video content, lots of more fun content, and more LinkedIn reporting and 'Impact Sharing' Always liked this PDF style reporting of recent stories and impacts, hopefully it helps us to reach more people. Time will tell... #digitalmarketing

👀Do you listen directly to the young participants at your golf tour? Durham Junior Golf Tour did just that. Through the Players 1st Tour Organizer Survey, they unlocked the opportunity to remain relevant to the youth, improving and expanding DJGT in the 2023 season. ⛳ "The Tour Organizer Survey was exceptional. It helped validate the many changes that we implemented in recent years and provided us with feedback that identified areas of concern for our players and their families that we need to address moving forward."- Jeffrey Iceton , Tour Chairman, Durham Junior Golf Tour. If you manage a golf course or host tournaments, using the Players 1st Survey can help you identify your strengths and opportunities for improvement. 🏌️Increase your sponsorship revenue and bring back participants in the new season. 🔗 – in comments. #golf #experience #golfbusiness #customerexperiencemanagement

Community Hubs where Golf is Played. This has been Clublinks’ steadfast approach to managing our golf courses over the past decade. During the week we sat down with Anthony E. and Thomas Zappulla to dive deeper into the meaning behind 'Community Hubs where Golf is Played' and what the future looks like for Clublinks in this space.

Who didn't love putting contests as a junior golfer? Playing against your friends for £1, for golf balls or event for a plate of chips, these were serious events. They were more than that though, they allowed us to bond over short contests whilst working on the most important parts of our games. They made us feel like we belonged as part of the junior golf scene at our clubs. In our 11th White Paper, we addressed the issue of belonging. Making new golfers feel like they belong as part of the golfing community is crucial to grow our sport. One idea is to build leagues at your club so that people we can foster this feeling of fun competition and build that feeling of belonging.
