Bite Size HR Training<br />
We are delighted to launch a range of workshop style<br />
training sessions called “Bite Size HR” – all designed to help<br />
you manage yourself, your teams and your business more<br />
effectively.<br />
Most of the sessions are aimed at line managers but some<br />
are designed for the whole team in our practices or central<br />
support functions. At the moment all workshops are<br />
demand led and will be delivered locally i.e. there is no set<br />
timetable or calendar for each subject.<br />
Please see the Brochure saved on Trace in the “Other<br />
useful documents” folder for further details. A pdf copy of<br />
the brochure has also been emailed to all Practice<br />
Managers and all Clinical Directors.<br />
