Objective
Family-based companies often suffer from a lack of managerial expertise which, in turn, jeopardises their competitiveness. The growing numbers of such companies and their significance in the socio-economic environment now make it necessary for their staff to have access to CVT so that they can acquire skills to enable these micro-enterprises to survive and develop further in a highly competitive market-place. The PIP MEAT project was created to respond to this demand in the meat-retailing sector. Its aim is to professionalise the management skills of managers in these companies by teaching them multi-disciplinary skills and a capacity for teamwork. The beneficiaries of this project will themselves analyse their skill requirements to enable an individualised training course to be set up before group training commences.
The partners will develop individualised training courses as well as a group training programme on management techniques (in CD-Rom and manual form). It will then be possible to apply this programme in companies, SME associations and training centres. The product will also be suitable for transferring to other sectors where family businesses are strongly represented, e.g. small-scale retailers, food distributors, as well as the catering and the hotel business.
Impact
This project will, by developing the management skills of staff in family-based businesses and micro-enterprises, help improve their competitiveness and maintain employment in this sector.
