Course details
Do you believe that your organisation or project is running efficiently? When things are going well there is often not enough time to concentrate on anything but the core business activities, and if things are not going well arbitrary cost cutting risks long term existence. This course will provide a framework to help you analyse your business, consider where to best focus your resources and review how to balance short term cost reductions with longer term business needs.
