A TRAINING and development group is joining forces with Huddersfield Town to inspire businesses by giving them team talks – in the club’s home changing room.

Dale Carnegie’s Team Talk sessions are aimed at business leaders looking to boost their leadership skills and improve their team’s success.

The first two-hour session in the Terriers’ changing room at the John Smith’s Stadium takes place from 9am on Wednesday February 13.

Juliette Dennett (pictured), Mirfield-based managing director of Dale Carnegie Northern England, said: “Football changing rooms are often the setting for inspirational team talks. By taking the teaching of Dale Carnegie’s key principles away from the traditional boardroom and into this environment, we will help business leaders take inspiration back to their own organisations.

“During the session we’ll look at how to become a leader others want to follow by giving attendees a range of tools and techniques which will maximise colleagues’ productivity and performance.”

Dale Carnegie, founded in 1912, has been associated with the Terriers since 2006 before becoming an official partner in the run-up to the 2010/11 season.
