To be successful, you might think that you should be growing your business yourself. After all, you know what you want. But, business is a team sport. And anyone who’s found success has done it with the help of others. If you want your business to thrive you need to surround yourself with a team of A-players. Whether you choose to outsource projects or build your own a team of 20 or 200, knowing how to recruit, interview, performance manage and keep team members productive is an essential skill for any business owner. Should you hire, contract or outsource your next team member? The Hire, Contract or Outsource? course, being held in two 90-minute online sessions on 3 and 10 April, is your sure-fire way to avoid making a bad hire (or contract) that costs you money and loses you time and resources.
