What's new on bCentral?

It's a lucky company that's never been affected by staff sickness; the fact is that absence usually costs money. So as the season of colds and flu approaches we take a look at how to combat sickies, and how to cope when you lose a vital team member. More >>


It's a team effort

It might be an exaggeration to say that a good team can be greater than the sum of its parts, but at bCentral we know that a group of people working well together can do great things. We also know that good communication's vital to success - whether that means talking face-to-face, or working together using the latest technology. That's why this month we're looking at how to get the best out of a team.
