A motivational speech

A careers lesson is the ideal opportunity for a representative from business to come in and give a short talk to your students about industry and the workplace. The talk could be general, focusing on employability skills or be more specific looking at a particular industry, for example, The I.T. sector.

How do they work?

A Business Talk can achieve a number of things:

• It can re-enforce to students that what is important in school is important to EMPLOYERS too. Punctuality, a positive attitude, meeting deadlines and upholding a quality standard of work are all necessities in the workplace.
• It can motivate and inform students; giving them a flavour of what a job in their business involves.
• Link to GCSE & Diploma projects and inform course work

Benefits to young people

• Provides a different perspective and adds relevance to subjects
• Encourages good habits
• Raises economic and industrial awareness
• Improves motivation and career aspirations

“Bibby Distribution Ltd has been excellent in supporting I.T. Diploma students. The talks and demonstrations given by their I.T. Director have been informative, fun and given the students a real insight into the world of I.T. Bibby Distribution Ltd has willingly given their time to support the young people of Liverpool."
