A week-long programme of networking, debates, inspirational talks and celebrations will take place in December as Lancashire Business Week returns for a second year.

Holding on to the best people has always been a challenge. 

But with so much disruption to working life over the past 20 months, it’s a challenge that has been exacerbated. 

We’ll look at the strategies that are working and hear from those implementing them. 

One key area of improvement which relates to retention and which has been accelerated by the pandemic is an increased emphasis by many businesses to engage better with staff. 

Videos, seminars, newsletters, meet the boss, online meetings – these and other means of staying in touch and keeping teams engaged has been a focus, and some of those practices are likely to continue. 

We’ll discuss these and other strategies to retain and engage your teams.
