OECS Media Release

Thursday, October 10, 2019 – ROSEAU, Dominica: The OECS Competitive Business Unit working jointly with International Trade Centre (ITC) will execute a Regional Specialised Masterclass for Business Support Organisations (BSOs) from October 15 – 18, 2019 at the Starfish Jolly Beach Resort, Antigua and Barbuda.

The workshop aims to provide a framework for BSOs to improve their performance to deliver more relevant and effective services for improved competitiveness of Small-Medium Enterprises within the region.

This highly interactive training, designed specifically for chief executives and senior management, will cover key performance areas such as change leadership, strategy development, clients need assessments and management approaches. This may also cover tools and support available for the growth and continued success of a business such as it managed services. In this day and age especially, this knowledge and information is vital to any business owner or those in management. Once you have an understanding of these areas, you can implement them into OKR systems from the likes of Profit to get the most out of your staff and business.

These will form a basis for further training on clients’ services and results measurement to be delivered at a later date. The activity will also be an excellent opportunity for peer support and shared experiences.

Participants will be afforded a solid foundation for designing or refreshing leadership action plans specific to their organizations’ needs. In addition, tools, templates, and coaching to improve effectiveness and enhance the business support organizations’ ability to deliver results will also be provided. If you want an example of this sort of situation, you can find one of the best PEO in California for an example of how a business can use help from other companies to grow their own business. In general, businesses need as much support as possible especially if they are new and want to make a good impression. Consulting with such professionals as an IT firm in London, or ones in closer proximity to their business, will help them with giving their organization a solid base and keeping a steady course.

The 4-day training forms part of a series of activities to be executed by the OECS Competitive Business Unit aimed at strengthening the instuitional infrastructure of National Institutions within the Member States. Strengthening organisations strengthens societies itself and institutions work best when they fulfil their functions strategically, connect with key allies and partners, and expand to serve a wider public.
