ION leadership celebrates Europe Day 2016

Written by zoo_visitor_guest / Friday 6th May 2016 / ION leadership news

Europe Day is held on the 9^th of May every year.

It is a day to celebrate peace and unity in Europe and marks the anniversary of the 'Schuman declaration'. On 9 May 1950, French foreign minister Robert Schuman presented his idea for a new form of political cooperation in Europe, therefore starting the process that led to what is now the European Union.

Europe Day Celebrations

In early May every year the EU institutions open their doors to the public to celebrate Europe Day. Also, a variety of activities and events are organised by Local EU offices in Europe and all over the world.

At ION leadership we want to celebrate Europe Day by sharing all the achievements that have been made possible to date. Thanks to the funding received from the European Social Fund through the Welsh Government we are able to positively contribute to the Welsh Economy by increasing the skills and the competitiveness of Welsh enterprises.

Thanks to the EU funding, in the past 5 years we have worked with 900 leaders and achieved some remarkable results:

Our delegates have benefited greatly from the programme:

""One of the best things I have done in my life. As in regards to bringing me out of my shell and actually giving me a sense of identity. I was a worker, then I became a Manager, and now I'm a Regional Manager. And who knows where I will end up in the future". "

""A lot of what we have learnt I can take back to the business. Another person from the same business was on this course with me and it would be great for us both to sit down, reflect on what we have learnt and take that back into the business". "

""We were struggling to get over £2 million revenue as a company. What ION leadership gave me was the confidence to look at acquisitions, look at bringing in more staff, look at different services, and overall, in the first year of ION leadership we got to £2.1 million which was a massive achievement and now, 18 months later, the company is turning over £4 million. I wouldn't have been able to do it without ION leadership. I wouldn't have had the confidence". "

""I have always recommended this course from the very first overnight experiential. This was the most enjoyable course I have ever done (and I have done quite a lot!). My daughter and business partner undertook the course, we had another manager complete last year and another starting in the new year. I think every person within a leadership role should experience this course. It is like no other and the skills learned along, with personal growth, are just something not to be missed. It cannot fail to inspire any leader, it cannot fail to bring a smile to a stressful week and some strategies to help you through. I believe that this is one course that quite simply cannot fail". "
