	I keep hearing that people are our greatest assets. But we struggle to attract and retain the best people. Some work well with clients, others don't seem to gel with them at all. And others just don't seem to be as effective or motivated as we thought they would be. Perhaps that saying should say "the right people are our greatest assets"...		Creating value and success through people



	Tango What is it? Tango is a business simulation which can be run over 2 days or longer (depending on any additional content you wish to build in) and for groups of between 9 and 24 participants, working in teams. Participants take over the running of a people-intensive and knowledge-intensive business, taking on the specific roles of planning, finance, marketing & sales, and development. Each team is in competition with the others, and the actions of each team will impact the others. Each team makes strategic decision around growth, attracing new clients, recruiting people, and development of the organisation's processes and systems. Then they strive to implement the strategy and the consequent operational challenges in a highly competitive and changing environment, competing for clients, talent, negotiating with financiers, responding to external events, balancing cash flow and profitability, and reporting on financial and business performance. What does it cover? Tango covers many business issues. Participants and their teams will be exposed to issues including: Bulding shareholder value Attracting and retaining the right employees Attracting and retatining the right clients Business strategy Capacity utilisation Growing both tangible and intangible assets Developing processes and tools for efficient delivery Talent management Short term profit versus long term value Key performance indicators (KPIs) Organisational culture Brand image Reputation Financial statements and financial analysis Who is it for?
