The team in training<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

P\u00f6yry is an incredible company which has grown in incredible ways – around 7000 staff in 50 offices and a strong entrepreneurial streak.<\/p>\n

Like any company experiencing growth it faces a challenge: how do you grow in size whilst maintaining the qualities that made you successful in the first place?<\/p>\n

We are delighted that they’ve allowed us to share some of their challenges and our work with them in our P\u00f6yry case study<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Their challenges are common to many companies that have grown, diversified or simply acquired another company – in short the challenges that, ironically, accompany success. \u00a0Maintaining an entrepreneurial streak, the challenges of working in more than one country and the local\/global balance are amongst the daily dilemmas for the leaders of global companies.<\/p>\n

P\u00f6yry has recognised this and developed a programme\u00a0which incorporates the most up to date thinking on\u00a0global leadership<\/a>, including\u00a0global organization structures,\u00a0working across global cultures and leading remote and virtual teams.<\/p>\n
