Links
Here are some links that complement the aims and content of CYM - to promote best practice in the performance of the management role, advance the careers of managers and encourage aspiring managers.
While CYM is UK based, it’s international in its outlook and includes links from other countries with English-speaking populations - Australia, Canada, India, Ireland, New Zealand, South Africa and the USA. Some of the similarities and the differences between countries make for interesting reading.
