Set Goals to beat the Recession
Leadership Management UK

There is a lot of uncertainty and fear in the marketplace, and in times like this it is absolutely vital to have clear goals. Generally, people act on their fears or their goals: in the absence of goals fear will control what you do and the results almost never turn out well. Paul Meyer said, "If you are not making the progress that you would like to make and are capable of making it's simply because your goals are not clearly defined.

In Autumn 2008 we will be running a series of workshops designed to enable business owners and managers to take positive action in the face of talk about 'the recession'.
