Running a business without a clear strategy often looks like being busy, reactive and permanently behind - even when things are technically going “fine”.

This Lunch & Learn is a chance to pause, zoom out, and get practical about where your business is actually heading.

Meet Your Hosts + Facilitators

Hosted by Secret Women’s Collab, in partnership with the City of Kwinana, this event is designed to support women in business across our community to expand their capability and capacity through high-value learning and development - without the pressure, posturing or awkward networking.

We’re thrilled to be welcoming Donna Bates. Donna has a rare gift of finding order in chaos, supporting businesses to achieve their strategic vision delivering results through a strong organisational, operational and marketing tempo. Donna’s passion is creating excellence by doing what she loves. She does what comes naturally to her; finding ways to proactively move businesses towards their vision.

In this Lunch & Learn session, Donna will guide us through a strategic planning session tailored specifically to women in business - practical, grounded, and immediately useful.

What this session is about

This is a practical planning session, supporting you to transition from feeling busy but unclear, making reactive decisions and second guessing yourself and your priorities to confident in your next steps with a strategic lens you can actually use.

You can expect to explore:

How to step out of day-to-day survival mode and into intentional planning
Identifying what actually matters for your business right now
Clarifying priorities so you’re not trying to do everything at once
Aligning your goals with your capacity, energy and real life

The Community

As with all Secret Women’s Collab events, this Lunch & Learn is about more than just the content.

You’ll also experience:

Real conversations with other women in business
Genuine connection without the pressure to pitch
A welcoming, inclusive community

If you’re coming for the first time, feel confident that you’ll be welcomed to a warm and inviting space, with a community of women who “get you”, with no pressure to perform.
