HR With Guts Cards- Know the business like your client

How well do you know your business? When we work with HR teams this often comes up. Years ago we produced a set of questions to help teams check their knowledge. We have now turned these questions in to a pack of cards. The cards will help you to know your business, test what you know and develop your team. And they're fun to play. They can be used at regular team meetings, off sites, as a fun quiz or just as a daily reminder of what you need to know about the business.
