Conker Consulting - E-newsletter July 2009
Welcome
Welcome to our first e-newsletter. We're very conscious that times are hard at the moment so the decision to go electronic with our newsletters is just one of the measures we've taken to trim our costs so that we can keep our prices to the level they were last year. We hope you'll approve and will allow us to continue to email you a newsletter just three times per year.
We're keeping the newsletter short and simple because we understand how precious your time is. Our aim is to let new contacts understand more about what we do and to keep our regulars up to date with what we're up to.
Special offer
We have a special offer on two training sessions particularly geared to help your organisation in these tough times. Our Presentation Skills session will help you to win in a tough economy. Whether you are a commercial organisation looking to win more business or a voluntary organisation competing for funds, this session can help you to get your message across persuasively.
When times are tough it is even more important to make sure that you have the right employees doing the right jobs. Our New Employers' course takes you through the whole process from defining the job, through the paperwork, systems and procedures to development and appraisal. This course will make sure that you know exactly what you need to do when recruiting your first employee. Whilst it is designed for new employers it can also be useful revision for those whose employment practices have become a bit haphazard.
Both sessions can be run in house with whatever size of group you like
or we can cover the content on a one to one basis if required. We're offering
a 10% discount on courses booked by July 31st. Call Rosanna now to discuss
your needs: 07961 134 033.
For more details on our courses and workshops see our
Training and Development flyerLook after your people
It's tempting, when times are hard, to cut down on expenditure on your staff but this can be short sighted. Our 'Personnel Review' takes a systematic look at your employment procedures to make sure that you are making the most of your people. We'll check that you have the systems and procedures which look after your staff and your business. We always look for ways in which you can increase efficiency and save money without compromising standards. Take a look at our Personnel Review flyer for more information. As we said earlier our prices are the same as last year so why not take advantage and call Rosanna on 07961 134 033 to arrange your review now.

I have a genuine interest in people and their development and enable people to realise and develop their potential. |

Like a conker, most organisations have prickly problems. I carefully peel away the outside casing to reveal a strong and shiny nut which contains the solution required. |
