The people advantage: How to build a team that grows your business

Sep 2026 25

Unlock Business Growth with Expert-Led Seminars at the Midlands Business Network Expo!

As part of the Midlands Business Network Expo, we offer a series of engaging 20-minute seminars designed to help businesses learn, grow, and succeed.

Led by experienced local business leaders, these sessions provide practical insights, expert advice, and actionable strategies on a range of hot topics relevant to today’s fast-changing business landscape.

About the Seminar

Growing a business isn’t just about winning more customers. It’s about having the right people, in the right roles, with the right support to help you deliver that growth.

But as a business grows, so do the people challenges; hiring people who don’t perform can be costly. Great employees can become disengaged. Managers can struggle to get the best from their teams. And without the right structures in place, people problems can quickly become business problems.

In this practical, commercially focused session, we’ll look at how business owners can use their people as a genuine driver of growth.

 

We’ll explore:

  • Getting the best from your teams: How clear expectations, effective management and good performance conversations can improve productivity, engagement and retention.
  • Growing strong teams and managers: How to build the right teams as you grow, drive engagement and equip managers to lead them.
  • Simple HR foundations: The key HR essentials every growing business needs in place to stay ahead of issues.

 

Why attend?

You’ll leave our session with practical ideas to help you hire better, get more from your existing team, develop stronger managers, and build a positive workforce that can grow your business with you.
