Employee engagement group delivers record-breaking conference

The North West Employee Engagement Group (NWEEG) gathered at Ribby Hall Conference Centre near Blackpool for its annual conference, with a new line up of expert speakers, more delegates than ever before and the first NWEEG awards presentation ceremony.

Before the conference, the NWEEG Ambassadors were interviewed for a feature in the July edition of Lancashire Business View magazine and that set the scene for the rest of the day by providing the know-how and evidence to show that employee engagement can drive a successful business strategy.

The NWEEG Conference 2017 was also the setting for the inaugural NWEEG Awards, honouring the achievements of great employees across the region that are making a difference to their organisations and celebrating the unsung heroes of the North West’s best places to work.
