Brooks and Bentley Ltd
Project: Outplacement help and support for 35 staff made redundant.
Brief: Our Kent-based client was acquired by firm in the Midlands. Staff were offered the opportunity to transfer, but it was not possible for most and we needed to implement a redundancy programme.

Angela Mawle, Chief Executive, UK Public Health Association
I used The Values Cards as part of a two-day leadership course. The exercise worked very well. The cards really helped them work out their key values and apply to their culture. Two of the managers asked me for details of where they could get hold of the cards so they could use them with their teams.
