Greene King operates thousands of pubs, restaurants and hotels across England, Wales and Scotland, and it is introducing productive pub lunches for city workers in the form of Expensable Lunches. These lunchtime events are being run in partnership with small business support platform Enterprise Nation so that workers in London can access useful training modules.
These hour-long lunchtime training sessions are hosted by accredited trainers and they pair topics like How to Build Your Personal Brand and Master the Art of Public Speaking with fish and chips, vegan burgers, pints and soft drinks. As part of the event schedule, Londoners will also have the opportunity to enhance their leadership skills and develop a growth mindset.
