The upcoming ‘How to be a Successful Turnaround Director in a Changing Market’ event will take place on Thursday 6th February and is hosted by PwC’s Regional Operational Restructuring Team in Manchester.

The evening in more detail:

  • Rob Lewis, PwC Partner and Head of PwC’s Turnaround Panel, will share key turnaround market insights – where are opportunities coming from? What roles are being sold? What skills are in demand and what does this mean for you?
  • This will be followed by an interactive panel discussion with Kelly Jones, Transformation Director at Kingsgate, Nick Alexander, Independent Company Turnaround Specialist, and Steve Benger, Independent Business Recovery & Growth Expert, who will share their views on how they have adapted and navigated the changing market.
  • Case studies from both the public and private sectors will be shared by PwC’s Operational Restructuring Team.
  • The session will conclude with a group discussion, summarising the key principles of how to be a successful turnaround director in a changing market.  Discussion highlights will be published and shared following the event.

 

There will also be ample networking opportunity with Canapes and drinks until 8.30pm.
