De Montfort University - Smart ways to tackle the crunch

Help is at hand for small businesses in Leicestershire worried about how to deal with the threat of recession. De Montfort University is offering a free workshop to assist local businesses from all sectors to draw up tailored strategies to address the current economic climate. "This is not about telling employers what to do, it is about capturing an organisation's knowledge to maximise its potential," said Ashley Carreras, principal lecturer at the university's business school.
