| Small Business Owners thriving in a co-operative structure with Roz Henry
In this webinar Liz Wotherspoon will have a conversation with Roz Henry (CEO at Co-Operative Business NZ) covering the following topics:

- Why is this relevant to New Zealand’s SME community?
- Are co-operatives more resilient in challenging times such as now? If so, why?
- Are any start-ups co-ops?
- How should an owner-operator of a small business equip themselves to thrive within a co-operative structure?
| The Power Within - developing existing talent vs the external hire with Richard Lees (MD at Osbourne Ward Ltd)
Many businesses often forget to look at the latent potential that their current team often holds.
It seems that many are all too ready to hire new rather than develop those already in the business, and have untapped or undiscovered capability. With the global movement of people and skills at a standstill, the skills crunch is going to be more evident - development rather than chasing a new hire will be more crucial than ever to the evolution of your business.
