20.01.2022 After a short break due to COVID-19, we would like to announce our 8th edition of Connect Cairns! Our cover story has such a powerful message from an incredible business & family man, Shaun Donaldson, Director at Halpin Partners. You don't need the Media to tell you that COVID-19 has had an extraordinary impact on thousands of small business around cairns and the rest of the country. There's a quote that often circulates in the wake of devastating events, "look for the hel...pers." In times of disaster, you will always find inspiration where people are helping’. The helpers during these uncertain times have come in all forms. We speak to Shaun on the power of empathy in the face of adversity. "Checking in on people might be going a bit over and above, but it's what you do." - Shaun Donaldson We've loved every minute of being back in the office preparing our August edition, and at 90 pages cover to cover - we're very much looking forward to your feedback on our new content topics! Enjoy your read! View the full online version here: www.connectcairns.com.au #connectcairns #linkinglocalbusiness #volumeeight #outnow #readyoursonlinetoday #covershaundonaldson
