With the recession deepening, Britain’s turnaround management specialists are out to lessen its impact with a training initiative that will spread their skills throughout the business community.

TMA (UK) in association with Minerva Training Associates has announced a series of four seminars entitled Fundamentals in Turnaround Management to be held throughout March at leading business school venues in London, Manchester, Leeds, and Birmingham.

The seminars are aimed at professionals in corporate roles or private equity, accountants and lawyers either in practice or industry, bank workout and support teams, owner managers and interim managers at CEO, CFO and COO level, and workforce recruitment and planning specialists. Sessions on diagnosing core performance issues, planning a turnaround strategy and identifying corporate value, and applying the essential components of a successful turnaround will be led by senior TMA personnel including Conference Director Dominic Reimbold and Membership Director David Hole.

“This recession is going to be long and deep, and if the country is to come out of it with its economic base intact then the sort of skills businesses need to defend and recover their core corporate value urgently need to be disseminated as widely as possible,” said Mr Hole.

“Turnaround professionals today face two major challenges: more and more businesses will need their services, while the shortage of business credit will make individual turnarounds ahead of insolvency even more demanding. Our seminars can imbue both professionals and businesses with the practical, hard-headed skills they will need to make and implement the right decisions to enable them to go forward with confidence even in the toughest of times.”

* The price of attendance at the seminars includes a year’s membership of TMA (UK). Full details of dates, venues, sessions, speakers and making a booking online are available at:
