Soldiers being made redundant - what's that got to do with you?

We were at a very interesting networking event last night which took place at the TA in Paisley. It was a great insight into what the TA does. As the regular army plans to reduce the number of soldiers they may be calling more and more on reservists for active duty. This means that you may be affected if your employees are deployed.

What does this mean for you? Yes, you may be losing your employee for a period of time, but what you gain can massively outweigh this. The TA equips its personnel with a host of tranferable skills that can help your business in the future. These can include:

• Management and leadership
• Communication skills
• Problem solving and decision making
• Resilience
• Adaptability 
• Tenacity

to name but a few. To find out more about this go to www.sabre.mod.uk
