Top Uk Business Speakers Who Can Help Companies To Grow
Businesses facing up to stark reality following the tax rises in the Budget will be looking for ways to be leaner and meaner in future.
Rachel Reeves’ controversial package of measures leaves businesses facing higher costs and many business leaders will be looking for creative ways to cope.
The Budget has thrown up a lot of uncertainty, as the government presses on with its stated goal of national renewal – or another period of austerity, as some would see it.
As well as the challenges around tax, Labour’s plans will also result in lower GDP growth in the coming years, as attested to by the Office of Budget Responsibility.
High tax and low growth are two factors that could potentially act as a drag of businesses, but there are other challenges too.
Government policies on health, energy, the environment, housing and infrastructure also present challenges and opportunities for businesses.
Looking abroad, there are also changes ahead perhaps in the UK’s relationship with Europe and its backing for the conflict in Ukraine.
Organisations looking to understand where the government is going are looking to experts and insiders to interpret what these changes could mean for relationships in the workplace and business goals.
Jack Hayes, founder and director of the Champions UK speakers agency, says hiring a leading UK business speaker to share their experiences and discuss them with employees would be a good way forward.
He said: “We have built up a fantastic roster of economic specialists over the past few years, including former world leaders and academic experts and are keen to get them to help you.
“Organisations in the Uk face a world of unprecedented change, with a new Labour government and an incoming Trump administration, and we have experts on and who will be able to help them to map out the future.”
