The Centre for Growth at Aston University is looking for established businesses for its Productivity through People programme. Aston works across the Midlands of England but can link any business into the programme as it is UK wide. The deadline for Aston is 21st November.

 

Productivity through People is a unique nine-month national programme that has stemmed from research into the UK’s productivity level. It is the only productivity-focused programme of its kind for SME owners and members of senior management. This programme is grounded in practical application, influenced by productivity experts, an excellent peer-to-peer network and one-on-one mentoring from a Productivity Coach.

In brief, Productivity through People:

  • Is dedicated to transforming leadership and management capability in order to develop modern, high-performance workplace practices in SMEs.
  • Gives a framework to improve the competitiveness and efficiency of your business.
  • Provides an unparalleled opportunity to meet the people behind award-winning organisations where excellence in productivity lies at the heart of business. For example, you will benefit from exclusive visits to businesses like Rolls-Royce and EY.
  • Enables you to work with leading experts and like-minded individuals in an exclusive peer network achieved through a collaboration of leading organisations and a world-class business school.
  • Emphasises how you can improve your workplace strategies and employee engagement.

We are excited to offer this programme at a cost of £2500 per person. The programme is valued at £6000 per person however, contributions from our industry partners and sponsors such as the Greater Birmingham and Solihull Growth Hub and Rolls-Royce have enabled us to match fund this programme. This programme is highly competitive and therefore spaces are limited to 24 participants.
