& the Glens Rural partnership PRESS RELEASE
Sirolli Training ‘The
future of every community lies in capturing the energy, imagination,
intelligence and passion of its people’ – Ernesto Sirollii. The Steering
committee of the Eastern Perthshire Sirolli Project, entitled ‘Enterprising
Eastern Perthshire’, is delighted to announce a second batch of training
sessions to take us forward to the next stage of the Eastern Perthshire
Initiative. The sessions will take
place over Monday and Tuesday, 25/26 September. Participants will take part in two sessions, which they will
be able to access at various times over these two days. The dates and times of the training will be as follows:
As some of
you may know from the information sessions we are interested in people from the
various communities of East Perthshire and the Glens with a wide range of
skills, from business, local government, voluntary organisations, networkers;
male and female, all ages, and we hope you will be able to give us some of your
time, expertise and energy. This 30
month project funded through the Scottish Executive, Perth and Kinross Council,
local businesses and organisations, as well as individual contributors offers an
exciting and innovative method of creating local enterprise and of helping build
existing business. The Sirolli
Institute uses an innovative model which it has developed and which has proved
successful Australia, Canada, United States and England.
Eastern Perthshire were successful in a recent challenge and are one of
two pilot areas in Scotland to try out this exciting opportunity for the
communities of the area. These
training sessions will bring the project to the next phase which will begin with
the Organisational Meeting on Wednesday 27 September at 7pm in the Red House.
All people who have attended the Sirolli Training are cordially invited
to the Organisational meeting which will elect its committees and take the
project towards the employment of the Enterprise Facilitator for ‘Enterprising
Eastern Perthshire’. If you would
