March 2010
New research from IGD indicates that UK food manufacturers and retailers are investing in the careers of their employees, with 80 per cent planning to increase training and development budget per head over the next 10 years.
The findings were unveiled during IGD's Employment and Skills Summit on 10th March 2010.
Joanne Denney-Finch, Chief Executive - IGD said: "Along the chain, we employ 3.6m people - thats one in seven of the workforce.Even in tough times, it's crucial for companies to keep investing in skills and harness the talent and energy of a new generation. This will be an exceptionally challenging decade and the future is in our hands."

February 2010
The effects of the recession can be seen all across the world. Businesses large and small have gone bust unable to cope with the demands of the new economic environment. Difficult trading conditions open the door for talented managers to show their worth. Good managers have normally undertaken a variety of training in order to help them deal with complex situations including economics, accounting, human resources management and change management. A survey, conducted by the Scala Group and ACE network, revealed that 70% of the U.K. senior human resources professionals questioned regarded coaching line managers and under achieving management teams as a top priority. This survey suggests that many companies are turning their attention to nurturing in house talent rather than hiring consultants and new employees to deal with problems. Effective management can significantly increase profitability and there are many courses specifically designed to get new managers and those with experience up to date.
Only 17% of the companies questioned listed formal leadership training as a focus, but the training professionals would urge the other 83% to reconsider their position. Professionals advise that the first step of management training will strengthen the company internally; Creating a shared company vision and streamlining communication within the business. The second part of management training is designed to further strategy, creating direct interaction between processes and the management team and educating managers on how to get the best out of employees and their market position.
The professionals suggest that although training may appear to be an unnecessary expenditure in the current economic climate, it will put businesses at the front of growth during the anticipated economic recovery. They claim that being well placed to deal with future growth is the key to successful business in the future.

"Employees will expect to go on structured and rewarding personal development journeys so they can build their own personal brand and develop new skills. Specific training this year will focus on strategic insight, interpersonal skills, leadership and management." - Clare Myerson, European people and practices manager, The Marketing Store.
