Training

New programmes available from Seven Human Resourcing:

• Recruiting for results

  One and two-day programmes for HR professionals and line managers sharing best practice in recruitment, based on research undertaken in the UK & US. Using practical tools and a logical process, this approach can be easily tailored for implementation in any business.

• Persuasion skills

  It's not just salespeople that have to ‘sell' others on a new idea or way of working. Most of us, especially managers, most of the time, have to persuade people to do things differently – and sometimes against a tide of resistance.

  This programme, based on understanding what differentiates effective managers from their more average counterparts, introduces persuasion styles and skills over a 2-day period.
