Saturday Spark ✨

Next week doesn’t need a full reinvention.

It needs a small plan you can actually follow.

Two yeses that matter.

One no that gives you breathing room.

What are your two yeses and your one no?

If your 2026 plans need a spark, this is the room to be in. 🎄

Come for the conversations. Leave with momentum for 2026.

Because your next big opportunity might be sitting in the room.

December can turn your calendar into a game of Tetris.

And you are the piece getting squeezed.

Calodagh McCumiskey wrote a practical guide on how to slow down before Christmas. This read was too good to keep to ourselves, so we had to feature it on AIET to share with you all.

It is simple. It is human. It is the kind you will actually use.

Read it here: https://aibf.ie/times/calodagh-mccumiskeys-guide-to-slowing-down-this-christmas/

The run-up to Christmas carries its own kind of momentum. The year has been long. Fast. Full. And many people are arriving into December already tired, overwhelmed, or close to burnout.

The week is nearly wrapped. 👇

Before you shut the laptop, hit pause and ask yourself these 5 questions. ⁉️

Did I use my strengths?
Did I show up as my real self?
Did my actions match my values?
Did I lead by example?
What will I do better tomorrow?

Small daily check-ins like this turn busy managers into intentional leaders. ✨

Your AIBF TRIBE Wrapped has landed. 🎧⭐

In 2025 you didn’t just “attend events”.

You packed rooms.
You cheered on new All-Stars.
You turned chance chats into real collaborations.
You shared stories that stayed in our heads long after the mics went off.

This is what happens when a community chooses trust, not guesswork.

Proof, not promises.
TRIBE, not solo.

Thank you for being part of it.

Let’s turn the volume up in 2026 and see what we build together. 💛

AIBF Business Talk is back – and this one is for leaders who want less chaos and more control.

Elaine Carroll sits down with Shay Lynch, Business Architect and Founder of Future State, to talk about:

- Why “more sales” is not a strategy.
- How to fix broken systems without breaking your team.
- What it really takes to build a business that can scale.

If you’re serious about performance, this episode is for you.
