Recently at Successium
Fitness Training (Feb-10)
For months now we have been attending yoga on a friday, but we felt there was something missing in our fitness regime. After many weeks of research we discovered Shannon Green of Warrior Performance (and no, he is not a relation of Liz). After an initial comprehesive health assessment we have committed to an 8-week program consisting of personal training on a Monday night. When our muscles stop being sore before the end of the week, we'll know we're getting fitter! http://www.warriorperformance.com.au
Christmas Party (Dec-09)
To celebrate the end of 2010 the Successium team, and their partners, enjoyed a fabulous dinner and even better cocktails at Cruise Bar Restaurant. The pan seared deep sea scallops with a salad of granny smith apple, celeriac, rocket cress & apple balsamic for entree seemed to be the winner, or maybe it was the raspberry gel pappardelle, fresh strawberry, white chocolate, raspberry meringue, vanilla scented mascarpone for dessert. After dinner we found our way to the bar downstairs to dance into the wee hours of the morning. http://www.cruisebar.com.au
Book Launch Party (Nov-09)
Liz Green wrote a book called, Forget the Yellow Brick Road. So to celebrate and officially launch the book Successium threw a party at Kit & Kaboodle. With over 120 guests it was a great night to network and socialise. You can check out the photo album here. If you would like to know more about the book check out http://www.lizgreen.com.au
Melbourne Cup (Nov-09)
On the first Tuesday of November, we all came dressed to the office in our Melbourne Cup attire, fascinators and all. We enjoyed the festivities at Sea Level Restaurant in Cronulla. Some of us were even lucky enough to win some money on the sweeps. We also believe fashions on the field was rigged! http://www.sealevel.com.au
16-weeks of Yoga Classes (Oct-09)
Successium are eight weeks into its Health and Wellbeing program. Every Friday at lunchtime we spend one blissful (and sometimes painful) hour with Nicole of Body Awakenings. At the end of every class we are blessed with 5-minutes of guided meditation, and each week at least one of us successfully falls asleep. Needless to say Friday afternoons tend to be calm and peaceful in the office. http://www.bodyawakenings.com.au
Volleyball and Sushi (Sep-09)
Successium belong to a broader community as we are tennants in a business accelerator called; The SSHED. Regularly there are tennant sport challenges on a Friday and in September it was Volleyball. Jade was deifnitely our Successium volleyball star. The day ended with Successium hosting a Sushi and Japanese Slipper afternoon. From memory, Naomi didn't step far from the table of strawberries and chocolate! http://www.sshed.com.au
L&D Professionals Forum (Sep-09)
Liz and Naomi attended the L&D Professionals forum hosted by Deacon's. The focus of event #9 was boosting your brain through exploring the emerging field of neuroplasticity. This compelling presentation was delivered by Dr Helena Popovic – medical practitioner and expert in peak performance. It was an extremely interesting presentation and the two of us came away with specifically two things we will be implementing at the Successium office; skipping ropes for regular aerobic exercise (even if it's only 3 minutes of skipping down the corridor every hour), and 'How' signs at every desk to activiate our problem solving neurons! http://ldprofessionalsforum.blogspot.com/
