It was somewhat apt that we chose such a historic building for a business update meeting last Thursday; after all, it was our inaugural meeting under the ownership of Suir Engineering. So, the historic surroundings of the University of Glasgow Students’ Union provided the perfect backdrop to what was a truly inspiring day.
Taylor and Fraser’s Managing Director, Andrew Norris, provided a detailed overview of the business strategy. He outlined the many opportunities available for Taylor and Fraser and its employees in the Scottish market. Andrew also identified some key initiatives the business must adapt to deliver on the opportunities.
Brendan Moley, Chief Operating Officer at Suir Engineering, updated the staff on the reasons behind their first-ever acquisition and highlighted the synergies that exist between the respective companies.
Following this, Angus MacInnes, William McGill, David Agnew, Robert Hunter and Ian Nairn updated everyone on the status of their respective departments and the plans for the business moving forward.
What was an enlightening and refreshing day exploring the business and its growth strategy was rounded off with an informative and impactful interactive dramatisation of a workplace incident. The practical session was expertly delivered by Theatre at Work, which has over thirty years of experience assisting businesses with culture change by providing learning experiences that captivate workforces.
The 13th of March was the first step in delivering our strategic plans; it was an excellent opportunity to reflect on past achievements while setting our sights on the opportunities for future growth.
Thanks to all those in attendance, and a special thanks to the University of Glasgow Students’ Union for the hospitality on the day.
Below, you will see a short video and some photos taken on the day.
