Newspaper conference underway

About 55 community newspaper leaders are in Tauranga for the New Zealand Community Newspaper Association annual general meeting.

The association's conference began this afternoon with Tauranga City Councillor Tony Christiansen giving a motivational speech at the Sebel Trinity Wharf Hotel.


Tony Christiansen speaks about goal setting at the Sebel Trinity Wharf Hotel.

Tony, who has a well established international career as a motivational speaker, spoke to the delegates about his life, goal setting and attitudes; sprinkling the speech with jokes.

The conference also includes the NZCNA annual awards which honour the best of the New Zealand community papers' news articles, photography and news websites.

SunLive was awarded best website at the 2010 awards.

That the content and investigations of TCC will happen and improve ? hard to see when the Councillors are there in on it all.


Motivate yourself and just do it

Well done Tony it was from what one can gather a motivational address of some substance. For some reading between the lines it left little doubt of your determination to press forward toward your goal of a full independent TCC staff audit.


WOW
