Fundraiser's Dinner Etiquette Tip #2: Managing Your Phone When you’re at a fundraising dinner, your focus should be on building relationships—not on your phone! Here are a few tips to help you stay present and show your dining companions the respect they deserve: 📱 Put your phone on silent and keep it out of sight. It’s hard to give your full attention with a screen lighting up every few minutes. 📱 If you’re expecting an urgent call, let your companions know at the start of the meal, and excuse yourself from the table to take it. Keep the call brief so your companions aren’t left waiting for long. 📱 Avoid the temptation to take photos or videos of your food in formal settings. While a quick snapshot might seem harmless, it can be distracting to others trying to enjoy the moment. In a world full of screens, giving someone your undivided attention is the ultimate show of respect. Have you ever had a fundraising dinner ruined by a dinner companion on their phone? #DinnerEtiquette #petrusdevelopment #fundraising #development #faithbasedfundraising #fundraisingdinner #EtiquetteTips

Funny Business does exactly what it says on the tin. Depending on the tin. It isn't beans, for example. Nor it is any good for sealing woodwork. What the tin will say is: ✅ 3 comedians - filling the evening with smiles and laughter ✅ Networking time - informally get to know other local businesses ✅ Fundraising - all profits and raffle ticket sales go to charity ✅ Canapes and drinks ✅ Special Guest appearances from stars such as Kylie Minogue and Peter Andre* ✅ Free helicopter rides home for all attendees** This event is run by the trusty old team of Ollie Jackman, Josh Butler, me, Raj Panchal and John Tomkins, and we're being hosted at the Winslade Manor Cellar Café and Bar, so yeah we've gone a bit upmarket here. Grab a ticket, come along, laugh, network, donate, eat, drink, use the loo (optional) and generally just have a bit of a wonderful time... this time we are limited to only 60 spaces, so I wouldn't hang about... 🎟️ https://lnkd.in/eKAJ-rh4 *This bit isn't true **This bit isn't true either, sorry #Comedy #Networking #Exeter #Business #Events #Fundraising #Charity

Challenge: Take Your Team Out of the Kitchen 🍽️ Team-building doesn’t have to happen only inside the kitchen! Taking your team out for a bonding event can build a strong culture. Here are some ideas: Restaurant Tours: Visit other establishments to experience service as a guest and gather inspiration. Local Farm Visits: A farm trip lets your team learn where your ingredients come from. Volunteer Together: Give back by spending time with local charities—it’s rewarding and fosters camaraderie. Investing in your team outside of work makes the in-kitchen experience even better. Have you tried an out-of-the-box team-building event? #TeamBuilding #RestaurantCulture #ExecutiveChefTips #TeamGrowth #OutOfTheKitchen
