A Productive Chamber Check-In Meeting

Last Tuesday's Chamber Check-In meeting at Burdekin Bowl proved to be a tech lesson, mental health check up, and buzzing social event rolled into one thanks to guest speakers Gary Roser of Harvey Norman, Ross Romeo of CORES Queensland, and a decent turn out.

Treasurer of the Burdekin Chamber, Kari Ravizza, kicked off proceedings with a brief introduction, before handing over to Romeo, who came equipped with worksheets for everyone present. He then guided attendees through "mental health bingo," a thought-provoking exercise that implored the audience to pay more attention to mental self care.

Then, Roser addressed the crowd, offering up a range of technology-based advice—an extension of the "AI in Business" workshops a couple weeks prior—touching on the implications of the AI not only in the workplace, but embedded in our everyday devices.

Food and beverages were available throughout the meeting, courtesy of Burdekin Bowl—who generously hosted the event beyond their usual hours of operation.

Some attendees stuck around to socialise afterwards, rounding out a productive and insightful meeting.
