In the aftermath of a pandemic, Sri Lanka’s economic revival will depend on the abilities of organisations to bounce back, re-strategise, motivate and energise its teams and equip and enable them to recapture revenues and generate profits.
Big or small, the success of an organisation greatly depends on the skill and capability of its people to not only find opportunity but to know how to convert it successfully to profits. Organisations have recognised that the development of its people will be vital for overcoming the challenges of the current market conditions but it is easier said than done. This is why TMC Mt. Lavinia innovated the of launching ‘The Expert Panel’.
TMC boasts a large membership of professional managers who are enriched with vast experience in various fields of management with impressive academic qualifications. As a responsible professional body, The Management Club Mt. Lavinia has initiated the formation of a consortium of experts within the TMC membership, and outside, who will provide consultation and training solutions required for organisations in Sri Lanka through The Management Club. This initiative will support Sri Lankan business organisations to upgrade their processes, improve productivity and uplift professionalism and capability of their teams so that they are equipped to face the challenges of the current market conditions.
“The Expert Panel will be driven by a subcommittee of members who are currently in the field of professional consultancy and are recognised trainers in different fields. For the first time their combined expertise will be available to organisations in Sri Lanka to help them sharpen their capability and advance in regaining lost revenues and driving growth. I can’t think of any other organisation that would have a mix of diverse resource people across so many fields to uniting as a front to aid the progress of companies who need it,” said TMC Mt. Lavinia Chairman Roger Talayaratne.
The ‘Expert Panel’ of consultants will cover such areas as budgeting, cost reduction opportunities, process improvements, sales and marketing strategy, development and planning ERP solutions, and change management techniques to name a few. A vast menu of training and development programs, covering sales effectiveness training, credit and cashflow management, project management, negotiation skills development, financial acumen, development of analytical skills, communication skills, business process reengineering and many more training and development programs, would be made available through the expert panel.
TMC Mount Lavinia takes this opportunity to invite and register “confidentially” all members and non-members who are proficient in developing and imparting through training and consultancy some of the skills enumerated above.
“I am excited that The Management Club is embarking in setting up The Expert Panel to contribute to the progress of organisations in Sri Lanka. TMC has been using its talented membership for internal management development programs like “Members Speak” which has benefited the members of TMC over the years. I believe this is the next phase in taking the skills and capabilities of our membership beyond our club to aid in the progress of companies all over Sri Lanka,” said The Management Club President Emeritus Fayaz Saleem.
Board of Management President Nasser Majeed said, “This new initiative will add a new paradigm to the activities and profile of The Management Club.” The TMC Mount urges all those skilled trainers and consultants within TMC membership and outside, to send in their profile in confidence in order that the database of such professionals can be established soon, so as to commence offering such services to the corporate sector.
Profiles, marked as ‘Expert Panel’ Confidential should be sent to TMC at Suite 204-206 Galadari Hotel Colombo 1, by registered cover in order to maintain confidentiality of the professionals.
