Growing businesses need strong leaders

Growing businesses require strong leaders who get the best from their workforce and compete effectively in an increasingly challenging market.

Strong leaders recognise that by improving their leadership and management techniques they and their staff can achieve extraordinary business outcomes.  With the commercial environment becoming more and more competitive, it has never been more important that you are able to engage with your workforce, ensuring that they are all deployed effectively, with a clear understanding of what they need to achieve in line with business aims and objectives.

NBSL can help you. We have been running the North East’s Leadership and Management Advisory Service since 2004. The latest programme commenced on 1st April 2011.

With grant support of up to £1000 available, business leaders have a fantastic opportunity to access specialist help that will kick start the growth of their business.

To date over 5000 businesses in the North East have already successfully applied for Leadership and Management assistance and you could be the next to participate and accelerate the growth of your business. (Because this is a new programme, previous applicants can RE-apply, even if you were awarded funding support!).

NBSL’s Leadership and Management team are very experienced at delivering this type of programme and our advisers will give you clear, confidential and honest advice.

If you can answer ‘yes’ to four simple questions then you too may be eligible for support from the North East Leadership & Management Advisory Service.

 

  • Do you employ between 2 – 249 people?
  • Is your business a private company or a social enterprise?
  • Do you want your business to grow over the next 3 years?
  • Are you the senior leader of your business?

 

There is absolutely no doubt that the Leadership and Management development process works.  This is clear from feedback given by previous clients who said, “This was a perfect process, very straightforward and met our development needs exactly”
