Stockport businesses looking to add purpose to their activities are invited to attend Stockport’s Proper Good Business Conference 2024 on Thursday 21st November.
Promising thought-provoking workshops, meaningful networking opportunities and a jolly good time, the conference at Stockport Guildhall will offer achievable solutions, strategies, and inspiration to do Proper Good Business in Stockport.
Workshops will cover a range of topics led by what businesses have told organisers they want to learn more about, from Managing Difficult Conversations to Challenging Recruitment Practices, whether scaling a start-up, part of a well-established company, or simply looking to inject more purpose into business activities.
Attendees should hope to walk away equipped with actionable insights that will empower them to make decisions that positively impact your business and your community. Plus, with a focus on fostering connections, this is a chance to build relationships with other Stockport organisations that last well beyond the conference.
