New Perspectives on business growth
Exhausted from peddling faster and faster just to stand still?
A fresh perspective on driving productivity, revenues and long term equity….
Constructing Excellence London and South East/SECBE have teamed up with leading business coaches Shirlaws to provide a series of strategic management workshops specifically designed to help business owners and directors in the construction sector to take a fresh perspective at driving productivity, revenues and long term equity….
Of a similar programme run for Mace by Shirlaws: ….
Brian Moone, Director of Mace Supply Chain and Business School said “Shirlaws delivered a tailored programme that met the specific needs of the companies involved. It addressed critical management skills in a hands-on way – wasn’t too highbrow and added way more than the normal technical skills."
"The course run by Shirlaws delivered in every way. Tangible improvements in staff productivity, improved revenues and increasing business value have all arisen from the programme" Sean Nutley CEO Silverdell plc "A brand new approach and a totally innovative way of thinking. A true breath of fresh air that delivered, immediately applicable, subtle but profound concepts and techniques to address key business issues." Andy Foy Operations Director, Stortford Interiors.
