In 2022 we ran the first edition of the World Class Manager training. This cohort included employees from seven organisations, including HB Projects. In November 2022 the course ended and we received the following quote from HB Projects People Director.

We were very happy to support Barry, Faisal, and Richard through this programme. They have all shown the commitment and focus required to complete the course and we congratulate them on their achievement. The skills and knowledge they have acquired are already being applied in the workplace adding value to their teams and the organisation as a whole. We are extremely grateful to National Association of Shopfitters for providing this opportunity to us.

What is the World Class Manager programme?

It is an online 12 module CPD accredited management programme, that is delivered to managers of any level. This means there is no need to remove the person from the business for an entire day, or incur the expense of travel costs.

Each module takes around an hour to complete and covers various topics such as Goal Setting, Appraisals, Managing Time, Customer Service and Future Planning which are based upon the best practice the GGI have seen from working with over 500 organisations worldwide.
