FAIS frenzy
Ben Tonkin, First Link training manager: “FAIS not only separates the professional and the unprofessional.”
“It also separates the strategic thinkers who invest in the future of our industry and those who lack long-term vision”.

“Some tempting packages will test the loyalty of well qualified people.
"Targets for the head-hunters must ask themselves whether it is worth leaving a professional employer with a progressive strategy to join a new employer with no track-record for people development and doubtful long-term vision”.
