How to have Effective Meetings

Thursday 27 August 2009 ( 9.00am - 12.30pm)

In today's modern business world, the old method of meetings is not as effective as it used to be. With the pace of business accelerating, emails and the internet, and conflicting priorities and distractions, it is difficult to make meetings work in the modern working environment. This programme aims to overcome common problems encountered when making meetings effective. Unfortunately many managers and teams have abandoned the idea of meetings in preference to email and other electronic means of communication. In many circumstances this has proved disastrous for team effectiveness and morale and contributed significantly to people management problems.

How to Understand Economics

Thursday 17 September 2009 (9.00am - 4.30pm)

As the business world shrinks it is increasingly important that business decisions are made in the context of the economy and the fundamental changes that are on-going in it.  Today many key business decisions are still being taken in isolation or without a full understanding of the effect that the economic environment will have on the business.

 

How to Manage Conflict

Tuesday 29 September 2009 (9.00am - 4.30pm)

This workshop trains you to learn new strategies of conflict management that will improve your work and personal life.
