Figures released that last week show that the British economy is still in recession having shrunk by a further 0.4% in the last quarter. This was contrary to what commentators were expecting with predictions that the UK economy would show positive growth for the first time in 2009. Even though this isn't good news the stock market still showed some of its biggest increases for some months. This illustrates there is an underlying confidence in the economy going into 2010 being driven by the growth in the European economies such as France and Germany.
What are the implications for management training in the UK over the next 6 months? Well in our experience clients are still being cautious but the last quarter for us showed an up turn not just in the number of enquiries but also the actual number of bookings. This has to be positive going into 2010 given the extremely nervous start many companies had to 2009.
