Description
The annual Growing Gloucestershire conference will take place on Tuesday 15th October at Pittville Pump Rooms, Cheltenham. A firm fixture on the business calendar, Growing Gloucestershire attracts 200 people each year. It is a great opportunity to learn new things, meet new people and catch up with old friends.
Your success as a business person depends on having both breadth and depth of knowledge - knowing a little bit about a lot and a lot about a little (your core area of expertise). We can't help on your core area but we can give you that breadth. Providing the knowledge you need to be successful. We have three groups of four seminars on topics as diverse as pricing, innovation, selling skills, diversity, being both more profitable and green, communication skills, cyber security, mind set, emotional intelligence, telling your story, managing your business on your phone. And on top of that we are delighted to welcome key note speakers Peter Cheese, CEO of CIPD, Rick Sturge of Bloodhound LSR, Sophie Bennett of Cranfield school of management and Tarra Simmons of mid counties Co-op. There is truly something for everyone.
Take a day out, invest in your personal development and transform your business.
