# SIRF ROUNDTABLES

## 2018 Operational Excellence National Forum

Another National Forum has now been and gone and I must say, what an amazing success!  The feedback has been brilliant and the attendees have gone away inspired.

The event was bigger & better than previous years with 130 attendees, 24 presenters, 10 exhibitors, 2 keynote speakers, and Brooke Hanson as our inspirational speaker, over 2 jam-packed days on the Gold Coast.

I’d like to say a special thank you to our two keynote speakers, Tim Baker and Jamie Getgood for their opening presentations at the start of each day.

Brooke Hanson, our inspirational speaker, wowed everyone in the room!  People in the public eye are often only viewed on face value, but every person has a story to tell which reminds us all that we are only human, but as human’s, we are very capable of doing great things by pushing our limitations and keeping our dreams and aspirations in sight.

We are excited now about organising next years event in Melbourne, so keep an eye out for that...

# Networking at it's Best!

Attending a SIRF Roundtables National forum isn't just about learning new concepts and keeping up to date with new idea's, it's also about the incredible networking opportunities. The benefits of getting to know your peers are extremely powerful and paramount to career growth, as well as forming long-term relationships. It also gives you the ability to have many knowledgeable people on hand to obtain perspectives, other than your own.

We hope you enjoy just some of the many great images taken over the two-day event.
