• GET MENTORING – WREXHAM – 29th Feb 2012
• GET MENTORING – MOLD – 20th Mar 2012

An innovative training scheme by THE Group has earned a top National Training Award for a Wrexham Factory. The judges were impressed with the unique programme developed with leadership development specialists THE Group and Brother Industries UK (BIUK). The prestigious awards were hosted by The Duke of York and millionaire entrepreneur and TV ‘Dragon’ Theo Paphitis.

BIUK consulted THE Group and the lead trainer who designed the impressive programme, which has led to the implementation of projects saving in excess of £500,000.

The project aimed to find ‘future leaders’ within the workforce who had the aptitude for leadership, communications, team building, problem solving and ultimately change management and delivering results.

Those selected to take part were given 5 ‘pillars’ of support and earned an ILM qualification. Throughout the process they had the support of THE Group experts.

Gareth Evans, who is now department head of supply chain management said

I started work here as a production line operator and, although I had advanced to an administrative position within the supply department, over the last 3 years since starting the programme, I’ve taken on the head of department role as well as an additional purchasing role

At THE Group’s first formal Graduation Ceremony, The Institute of Leadership & Management (ILM) recognised the achievement of an enthusiastic group of students.

Watched by an audience of friends, family and colleagues the graduates, Julian Cooper & Juan Carot (of Brother Industries UK) and Jordana Stevens and Malcolm Tydie (of Agile Group) received their Certificates from Craig McCubbin, Managing Director at Brother Industries and programme facilitator Pete Stevens.

Amongst the attendees were Paul Tinkler, Melanie Allsop and Rachel Walker from THE Group Ltd, strategic training providers for Brother Industries UK, who recently received the UK National Training Award at a ceremony in London.

The qualifications included ILM Level 5 Certificates and Diplomas in Management, and ILM Level 5 Certificates in Coaching & Mentoring in Management.

The alliance between THE Group and the Agile Group is committed to individual and organisational development and is continuously refining their consultancy and training services.
Operations Director, Paul Tinkler explains:

All of our consultants and trainers possess a profound knowledge in their areas of expertise; this requires practical experience coupled with academic excellence. That is why we are happy to recommend the Institute of Leadership & Management and their wide range of qualifications, as they blend robust theory and best practice with practical application for individual and business growth.

Pete Stevens, of the Agile Group, adds:

In these financially challenging times, well trained and self motivated employees can make the difference between survival and extinction. We are determined to help our clients find their own particular pathway to success.
