Seminars & Events
2018 Planning Retreat
In May the JBS Team spent two days at the Grange Cleveland Winery in Lancefield planning for the six months ahead. It was a great motivation for all and allowed us all to step back and reflect on the year so far. This allows us to think of ways to improve the services to our clients as well as way to be more efficient in the office.
Throughout the year JBS run a variety of events ranging from small group sessions to large seminars which are of great value to our clients and prospective clients. We would love for you to attend our next session, and value any feedback you have regarding topics of interest to you.
JBS Social Events
The JBS Team love to get out together to do something fun and a bit of team building. As a group we love our social events and always look for the next crazy thing to incorporate into these fun occasions.
We've done lawn bowls which showed a few naturals. Click here to view some of the footage captured on the day.
The JBS Team took on one another in Bubble Soccer. There weren't many goals scored, more smashing, crashing, rolling and laughing - check out the video here
