The importance of an effective business strategy – with Ultimate Finance

The importance of an effective people strategy in growing businesses cannot be overstated. Yet many smaller and mid-sized businesses don’t have a pag ein their business plan that is focused on people. Yet when everything in a business comes down to having the right people doing the right things – and when surveys show that having an engaged team can make 20% difference to a company’s profit – it could be a missed opportunity if you don’t have a plan in place.

Our founder Ally Maughan and Scottish Director Kathryn Hume recently met with Adrian Stalley, Head of Partnerships at Ultimate Finance, a specialist asset-based lender ready to support the ambitions of UK businesses, to discuss the importance of a people strategy, how to go about devising and implementing one, and why every business wanting to secure sustainable business growth needs to have one.
