A government-funded Peer Networks scheme is offering support to small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) across the UK.<\/p>\n
The programme, which is free to join, helps organisations tackle common business challenges through interactive action learning.<\/p>\n
Additionally, the scheme’s trained mentors help small and medium-sized businesses handle new opportunities and build a strong support network.<\/p>\n
Business leaders can learn from like-minded individuals on the scheme and put practical solutions into place together to overcome common issues.<\/p>\n
Virtual workshops on the Peer Network scheme normally take place in small group sessions, but one to one mentoring and coaching is also available.<\/p>\n
Trained facilitators are always on hand to help organisations develop and grow.<\/p>\n
Head of Operations at Mastercall Healthcare said: “The one-to-one tutor session really helped me work on some long-standing obstacles.<\/p>\n
“I’m so glad to have taken part and feel more confident in my own skills and attributes.”<\/p>\n
SME leaders on the scheme can share their business concerns with fellow company owners who experience the same challenges.<\/p>\n
Jason Thorpe, Managing Director at The Voiceover Gallery said: “By sharing experiences and issues, it enables you to step back from business, and look at things from a different perspective whilst benefitting from the experience of others that may have faced similar challenges.”<\/p>\n
Founder and CEO at Datacentreplus, Mashukul Hoque said: “Engaging with other businesses through Peer Networks has been an invaluable experience for me.<\/p>\n
“There is a lot to learn from other businesses, particularly in these challenging times.”<\/p>\n
He added: “It is an opportunity to share ideas, tips and good practice that others can benefit from as well.”<\/p>\n
Any SMEs that have been in business for at least 12 months, employ five or more staff members and make £100,000 or more in revenue can join the scheme.<\/p>\n
The programme, which has been created by the Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy, is held at local growth hubs across the UK.<\/p>\n
