The new Management development group started at Turnberry yesterday. The  ethos of the group is to develop projects which will improve business, stimulate energy and challenge the business to be the  best in the business! We need a name for the group and we have asked the team to suggest names.

So far we have Elite, Talkberry, Turnberry Matters and one other that we can’t print! Please suggest your names here on the blog and we will reveal the prize next week. Closing date is 27th of January

Thought Matters

Monday, January 11th, 2010

In times of change, learners inherit the Earth, while the learned find themselves beautifully equipped to deal with a world that no longer exists. 

Eric Hoffer, Author, 1902-1983

The thought matters quote to start this year just about sums it up. Continuous personal development is essential. Those who are engaging in learning at the moment are better placed to take advantage of the opportunities afforded by todays business climate. Those who are basking in the glow of a well earned qualification more than 5 years old must now consider their next step in their learning journey.

I’m sure most of us would agree that continuous professional development works. What we are looking for are real examples of this working. What has training done for you last year and what are your plans now? We’d love to know!
