Business Partnerships Agenda

The Business Partnerships Organisation evolved in line with modern employee relations practice to consider the whole picture of staff motivation and engagement with their companies and their relations with other partners. The original aim was to create a sea change in British workplaces by establishing partnership as the modern and successful approach to industrial relations which has been enhanced by this more holistic approach.

The Business Partnerships Organisation remains guided by the same principles of partnership as were first established at the start of the industrial revolution:

Many businesses operating in the Eurozone are finding exporting goods to the United States of America extremely hard right now due to the Euro to Dollar exchange rate going against them. Similar problems are now surfacing in the United Kingdom as the GB Pound strengthens against the Euro. Manufacturers throughout 2008 were pleased parity was achieved

For office morale, employee recognition, and client appreciation, remember the power of fresh flowers. According to research, flowers in the workplace actually boost creativity, and flowers sent as a gift increase feelings of overall happiness, well-being, and satisfaction.

Sound Partnerships involve a sound Business model combined with environmental policy. Gone are the days of a quick buck and no one minds where I source my raw materials from. Certain companies Shutters Themselves from that responsibility and ignore even the most basic guidelines. We are all responsible for the environment and should all look after it.

More and more businesses try to establish a presence on the Internet as a way to streamline their sales process. Recently we have seen a growing number of ecommerce companies that import products from France all over the world. The online business they have developed around French food, home accessories, Paris souvenirs and gift products has enjoyed impressive growth in the last few months.

It is always critical for businesses to form partnerships and strong working relationships with lawyers, such as those listed on this website - you never know when you need legal advice, information or help for something or other, and rather than having to pay through the nose for legal advice, if you have close relations with lawyers in your network then you can ask their advice over an event or a drink rather than formally.

Some of our shared goals are:

Shared commitment to the success of the enterprise

Effective partnerships are ones where employee representatives and employers have a shared understanding of the organisation's business strategy and a joint commitment to its success.

Recognition of legitimate interests
Genuine partnerships recognise that employee representatives and employers will have differences in interests and views. There should be arrangements to resolve these differences in an atmosphere of trust.

Commitment to employment security
Many employers embrace partnership as a way of increasing flexibility in the workplace. Good partnerships complement flexibility with action to improve employment security in the workplace.

Focus on the quality of working life
Partnership should broaden the scope of employment and organisational issues tackled by employee representatives and employers. It should lead to improvements to terms and conditions and more opportunities for employees to participate in decisions about their work.

Transparency
With successful partnerships, managers share information with employee representatives about the business at an early stage, and conduct meaningful consultations with employee representatives and the workforce.

Win-win
The hallmark of an effective partnership is whether it delivers concrete improvements to business performance, terms and conditions and employee involvement. Partnership is about mutual gains for the workforce and employers.
