First Internal Networking Session at Crackley Hall School

Thursday 19 September 2019 from 7pm

This event is designed to be relaxed and informal, you can come along and make new business contacts and learn more about each other.

Please note this a non-fundraising event and we welcome people from the business and non-business sectors to this event.

Also, in addition to the this event we are very privileged to have Dr Tracy Rea who previously worked as Performance Director of Scottish Gymnastics and then transitioned to Lloyd’s Banking Group as Head of Business Operations, with a recent move to the Construction industry. This is a culmination of her PhD in Talent Transfer - trying to prove the hypothesis that you can take your portfolio of work across industries. However through this time Tracy has utilised the Chimp Management model as a framework to successfully engage with all of her teams and stakeholders, and this is what she will be sharing with us this evening.
