HR professionals, directors and business owners throughout the
region are invited to enjoy Christmas lunch with Ruth Badger from
BBC TV's 'The Apprentice' at HR Exchange, Derby's dedicated HR
networking event.
The event is taking place at Pride Park Stadium on Thursday 16
December (12pm - 2pm). Guests will be able to enjoy a festive
three-course lunch before listening to Ruth talk about the
employment issues that she has had to overcome since launching her
own business, Ruth Badger Consultancy Ltd.
In addition to the issues covered at the event, there will also
be the chance to ask Ruth questions about specific issues of
interest.
Ruth was runner-up in 'The Apprentice' in 2006, after which she
worked in an executive role for Lord Sugar for six months. Since
then Ruth has fronted her own trouble-shooting show 'Badger or
Bust' and was the mentor on Sky One's 'The Big Idea', before
setting up her own business advice company, Ruth Badger Consultancy
Ltd. She also has two regular business columns with national
press.
Ruth's second business, The Ruth Badger Academy, was launched in
2009 and provides sales, business and careers training.
Commenting on the Christmas HR Exchange event, Ciara Millar,
vice chair of HR Exchange, said:
"I am delighted to welcome Ruth as guest speaker for this event.
She has experienced tremendous success throughout her career and is
living proof that a positive attitude can get you where you want to
be in business."
HR Exchange is an informal networking group that has been formed
to bring together people who are responsible for HR and provide a
platform for them to discuss topical HR issues.
The group meets at least twice a year and at each event a guest
speaker presents on a relevant HR 'hot topic' - giving insight into
how they have approached a particular HR situation within their
organisation. Time is allocated at the end for questions.
Previous speakers have included Kavita Oberoi, Derby-based
entrepreneur and star of Channel 4s 'The Secret Millionaire'.
Tickets for the event are now available, priced at £25.00
+ VAT each. To reserve your place, or for further information,
