This course is designed to support delegates who wish to protect their business during periods of uncertainty caused by recession. In difficult times many people lose sight of their core objectives and potentially talk themselves into recession.

The day will examine how to get the most out of others to ensure all opportunities are maximised and all risks are minimised. It will also review the importance of working towards strategic objectives and how they should be aligned to the needs of the business.
