If you’re not yet a member of Bristol Creative Industries and would like to take advantage of this member-only event, you can sign up here. You can also read about the membership perks here.
These sessions take place every other Friday morning from 8.30-9am, for the BCI community to share their pearls of wisdom with one another. The half hour webinars will involve a 15 minute presentation followed by a 10 minute facilitated Q&A, with introductions from the BCI team.
Our community is full of such amazing talent so we’re giving members the stage to talk about things that excite them so they can inspire their peers. The sessions will be a mix of expert tips and tricks and case studies – the perfect opportunity to learn something new before the week is out.
Our usual online format is an interactive ‘meeting’ but for this series we’re running webinars so that it’s easy to listen in while prepping for the day ahead or while having your breakfast! Cameras and mics will be off but you can ask your questions through the chat box or submit them beforehand.
Please get in touch with Sian if you’re interested in speaking at a future session.

Lead with Authenticity

I already know you’re good at your job, that’s why you’re here.
You’ve spent years mastering your craft and take pride in your work.
But being a leader means more than just getting the work done.
Now, you’re expected to voice opinions, make decisions, and solve problems.
And when you’re still new to leadership, that can feel daunting.
You’ve had some great leaders in the past (and a few you’d rather not become).
Now it’s your turn. It’s time to work out how you want to lead.
This session isn’t about fixed leadership styles or corporate stereotypes. It’s about bringing your personality, values, and experience into how you show up at work.
You’ll leave with practical tools, honest stories, and fresh perspective, whether leading a team, a business or yourself.
You’ll also have the chance to meet a lovely group of peers here in the South West who are figuring it out too.
What we’ll cover:
What authentic leadership really looks like (and what it’s not).
How to build trust without pretending to be someone you’re not.
How to feel more confident in your role — even when you don’t have all the answers.
You’ll leave with new perspectives, useful tools, and a network of brilliant peers in the South West who are facing similar challenges.
