Initiating Mutuals & Social Enterprises
03 Mar 2011
Mutual and Social Enterprise Broadcast Series 2011. Leadership Skills, Governance, Legal Properties. Held at Westminster Studio, London SW1
This conference and TV programme was put together with the leading organisations working in the field and is the first in a series which gives delegates the opportunity to hear from sector leaders, academics and government who will explore best practice in leadership, finance, service models, governance and legal proprieties. This was a ‘must attend’ event for councils considering commissioning or venturing into social enterprise either through mutuals, cooperatives, spin-outs or employee owned business models. The presentations contribute to an expert resource bank for use across public services.
