More Savings in the Public Sector Sought

People Management is quoting the Read Report which claims that there is a further £4 billion, beyond the original Gershon estimates, in savings to be made in public sector back-office services. As can be seen in the article the Commons Treasury committee doubts this figure and so should we.

But the writing is clearly on the wall that the Goverment is on the hunt and loaded for bear. Those that survive will need to make sure that their people are as fit and ready as they can be and remain so. This is where coaching comes in. A sure-fire and cost-effective way of ensuring that the key people in an organisation are sharp and stay honed.
