The attenti Star of the Week is a bi-weekly interview of interim public sector employees. The idea is simple. The interim market is currently changing. Each week the 'Star' is asked the same five open ended questions. The answers often challenge perceptions, contrast media stories and shed light on different viewpoints. In the current economic climate doing more with less requires innovative thought, open expression and a scrutinising audience. The attenti Star of the Week provides all of this. It is all expressed through our LinkedIn group, attenti Interims. If you would like to take part in this please feel free to email us.
