Your proposal should include all the essential information, research and evidence as requested in the Client Brief below, and should be supported by underpinning theory/evidence.

Our managers and assistant managers require extensive training and development in the basics of operational leadership and management, including resolving conflicts and disputes in the workplace, basic employment law, and day to day management of employment relationships. They also need to have a good understanding of motivational techniques, and team building/team management.

Our budget for this programme is in the region of £25,000. If you would like to bid for this contract, we require a 1,000-word written proposal from you in the following format:

• Overview of your programme, its methodology/approach, with appropriate  evidence/theoretical underpinning included.

In order for you to prepare your bid in detail, I will make myself available for a 2 hour interview at a date to be mutually agreed, so that you might question me in detail on our specific requirements.
