Race to the Finish
Published byLiam A Entwistle
2012 was an amazing year of events in the UK - the Queen’s Jubilee being followed by the Olympic and the Paralympic Games.
In this issue of Business and Life, we look forward to the next major UK wide event, the 2014 Commonwealth Games in Glasgow, and examine some of the issues major events can throw up.
Andrew Wilson fires the starting gun on public sector procurement, Graham Bell asks what sponsors should be seeking for their money and Martin Stephen writes on managing employees over major event periods.
Elsewhere Lesley Elrick comments on a court case which offers salutary lessons for family businesses and we announce new appointments and promotions.
