Motivate staff during the recession with Sulis Enterprises

May 7, 2009 - PRLog -- Norma Corlette Gets Motivated with Staff Training and Development

Business coaching, staff training and team motivation programmes all sound like the luxuries of an economic boom. However, according to the CIPD (Chartered Institute of Personnel and Development) as the recession takes hold, employers are looking for more creative ways to ensure that staff training continues despite budget squeezes.

There is abundant evidence to suggest that companies with a more engaged and highly motivated workforce tend to outperform their competitors. Recent research from the CIPD suggests that despite the downturn, an increasing number of firms are seeking to learn from external people and then apply the knowledge within their organisations through middle management.

Norma Corlette, renowned Scottish entrepreneur, is just the person to deliver and she brings with her a wealth of knowledge and experience on business growth and development, to help businesses survive and grow during this downturn.

Founder of the TLG Education, Norma Corlette has first hand experience of the difficulties faced by redundancies, restructures and cut backs and their impact on the on staff motivation and morale.  Determined to use her knowledge and expertise to guide other businesses and their employees safely through difficult times and beyond, Norma Corlette launched Sulis Enterprises.

Sulis Enterprises is an elite team of highly skilled business and education leaders, who are on hand to provide tailored training to equip line managers and team leaders with the knowledge to guide, empower and motivate their staff.

Managing Director of Sulis Enterprises, Norma Corlette commented:

“During these times it’s essential to take an innovative approach to the content and method of delivering team development programmes in order to efficiently energise staff, and help them look beyond the current economic horizon.”

“The businesses that will flourish during this downturn are those who nurture their line managers and team leaders to develop strong leadership skills, which will empower them to manage their teams effectively with creativity and confidence.”

But as the impacts of the downturn escalate across all sectors of the economy and an increasing number of firms are reviewing their budgets and implementing cost cutting initiatives, Norma Corlette notes:

“Its a lot easier to splash out on elaborate training and development programmes during the more robust times, and team conflicts can be easily covered up by rewards and financial incentives. However, the current climate is far less forgiving; coaching and leadership advice will be an invaluable tool as organisations brace themselves for difficult times a head.”
