Chamber Business Breakfast: leading in crisis out of your control

This event is exclusively for our medium, large, corporate members, taking place twice each year. It takes a broader view of the challenges facing larger NE businesses, with a particular focus on leadership. It aims to bring both national and international perspectives, tapping into the wider Chamber network: to support business here in our region.

Following recent civil unrest, we will discuss leadership in situations outside of a business’ control, how to plan or react operationally to such situations, as well as how leaders communicate and support their teams.

Grow your acumen with practical tips and invaluable takeaways tailored for medium to large-sized enterprises. Don't miss this opportunity to network, learn, and lead.
