Ease yourself into 2012 by reserving your place on IIPS and Thrive Partnership Event 18 January 2012
The Snakes and Ladders of Managing People for Growth by Peter Russian, Chief Executive, Investors in People Scotland
Join us on Wednesday 18 January 2012 from 5pm to 7.30pm at The George Hotel, Edinburgh
How do companies grow and develop in this extended downturn? Well there are only two ways to grow a business in any climate – you either sell more to existing customers or you get more customers, it’s that simple.
But what’s the best way of doing this? It’s been said your people are the last differentiator. And it’s only by investing in them that you get a better performance by igniting their passion and commitment to increase skills, productivity and grow your company. So is this a good time to invest?
“Did you know that organisations engaging with IIPS report an increase of £406 per employee per annum, return on investment?”
As part of Investors in People’s 20 year anniversary, Thrive for Business and Investors in People Scotland are hosting a partnership event on Wednesday 18 January 2012 from 5pm to 7.30pm at The George Hotel, Edinburgh and would very much like to invite you along.
This event is specifically designed by Investors in People Scotland and Thrive for Business, Scotland’s leading B2B network to give inspiration to business owners. Peter Russian will reflect on the snakes and ladders of investing in people to achieve growth. You will leave with tangible tools that you can implement, ideas about how to work more creatively in this recession and of course fantastic networking with other business owners like yourself exploring this opportunity.
