SUMMARY:Generating Results Through Reorganisation
DESCRIPTION:Generating Results Through Reorganisation: a practical workshop covering the benefits of reorganisation within your business. \nAre you experiencing change in the business? So much change that you’re not sure that you’re organised in the most effective way? If you are\, this webinar will help you consider the options for reorganising the way you do things for continued success. \nGone are the days when organising a business was straightforward.  Seemingly the world has changed and to remain competitive\, it sometimes isn’t enough to just be better at what you do and more productive and efficient at delivering results. \nParticularly in the last 30 years or so\, alternative ways of organising businesses have emerged\, with mixed results. This workshop explores alternatives to the traditional mission-driven\, hierarchical approaches. \nParticipants will consider a number of case study companies to get an insight into the thinking of others who own and manage businesses and how they view the world differently.

SUMMARY:Developing a wellbeing strategy for you and your business
DESCRIPTION:This is a 6-hour interactive workshop\, delivered in two 3-hour sessions which offers some clear and simple practical steps that you can take\, together with a number of tips and ideas\, to help you develop your own bespoke wellbeing strategy. \nYou should attend both parts: \n10 March 2022\, 14:00 – 17:00 – Part 1\n17 March 2022\, 10:00 – 13:00 – Part 2\nAs employers\, you know you have a responsibility to protect and support the health and wellbeing of your staff. Promoting health and wellbeing at work is about how a company demonstrates that they value their people\, and how they will support them to lead healthy and fulfilling lives\, both inside and outside of work. \nThe reasons for developing a strategy on health and wellbeing may vary but it is usually driven by the desire to see higher rates of retention\, reduced sickness absence and increased productivity. \nDeveloping your own bespoke wellbeing strategy can help you be clear about your objectives\, identify where you may need to prioritise interventions and activity and determine how you measure its impact and effectiveness.
