Redundancy, Self-employment & Change
Our clients know the importance of better communications skills and business skills to get through difficult times.
We are currently focussing on areas such as transition from employment to self-employment, as well as coping with change.
We specialise in working with the media industry or with people who need to communicate more effectively using the media.
Our workshops are applicable to many other areas of work, particularly one-person businesses, sole traders, consultants and freelances.
You can rest assured that we tailor our work to your needs. Our trainers and consultants have backgrounds in broadcasting, journalism and business development, mostly in the BBC.
Your quality guarantee
We are confident that we can help you with our courses and services - so confident that we promise we will not charge you if we have not met the agreed objectives for the work.
