You have a Marketing and Branding Strategy, ensuring your clients understand exactly what you are offering, you have a robust Sales Strategy to plan how you are going to achieve in business and now you have comprehensive Funding and Finance strategy. So, what about the people in the business? Without them you may not have a business so it pays to employ the right people for the job and invest in their learning and development.
