It is often claimed that the distinguishing feature of organisations in the Voluntary and Community Sector is that they are “value-driven”. In the world of the busy organisation struggling to deliver its work in a challenging environment, do values help? Do they matter? We believe they do, now more than ever. Organisations can feel overwhelmed by the challenges they face or they can shape their own futures. Values are the solution. This course is aimed at Trustees but could also be very useful for Managers or Chief Executives. During the day we will be looking at: What are your values? Why are values important? Threats to your values. Who needs to know about your values? How to promote values.
Salt Lane Learning Centre is located above the offices of Wessex Community Action at: Greencroft House 42-46 Salt Lane Salisbury SP1 1EG
