Transferable Skills - marks and spencer move
by Liam
Are managers managers whether they are managing selling fruit and veg or managing selling clothes and household bits and pieces? M&S appear to think so - they have just hired the boss of supermarket giant Morrison, Marc Bolland, to take charge as Chief Executive. Stuart Rose, Executive Chairman of M&S, takes the view that it’s management skills that are needed and they are transferable from one retail sector to the next. Specialist fashion advisers can be brought in to pick the colour of next year’s range, so the chief exec doesn’t need to be a fashion guru.
Is this an example mere mortals on typical pay packets could follow to help get back in work quicker? Think about those transferable skills and consider a sector move!
