What We Do

Leadership Training And Development

Our support is available for individuals, teams and boards. We provide a range of support with leadership, training and development.

Individuals

Many individuals find themselves in a position of management and leadership, often without specific training on how to become a leader. They often struggle with the balance between compassionate leadership and making the difficult choices in the best interests of the organisation’s successful sustainable future. Someone once said to Christine “don’t mistake kindness and weakness…” Learning about self in relation to others at work is the key to unlocking the potential of an individual to be a great leader as well as a successful strategist.

However long someone has been in a position of leadership…there is always something to learn. We work with ‘leadership teams’ as well as individual leaders through workshops, coaching and mentoring.

Teams

Operating as part of a team can be challenging and yet rewarding. Cohesion, effective team dynamics and communication are at the root of success. Without them, productivity, individual relationships and team members excellence can be detrimentally affected. We can facilitate team building sessions resulting in improved understanding of each other, communication and productivity. See Clarity 4D (clicking on this will take people to the section on this) for further information.

Boards

The principles of governance can be complex and difficult to navigate. A well-functioning board, with understanding of its obligations and responsibilities…as well as a strong and successful interface between board and senior executives can literally make the difference between the sustainability of an organisation, or its failure. We can provide an honest assessment of what a board needs to overcome issues of governance, conflict, communication and oversight of senior staff. We can support boards with development of the skills they need to navigate the myriad of issues they will face. As part, or in addition to this we offer generic trustee training and induction for those new to trusteeship. We use the Clarity4D profiling tool to take teams and individuals through a program that provides insights that change the way they work, communicate and interact with each other.

Change And Transformation

Continuous change is a part of the day-to-day challenge for all organisations. The future is no longer certain, with developments in technology, finding new sources of income maintaining a competitive offer. Relationships between an organisation and its employee’s is also changing, with staff wanting a focus on their well-being, hybrid working and four-day working weeks.

New legislation and regulation require leaders and boards to operate in a more agile way while looking to the future and anticipating what is needed 6-12 months ahead.

We offer a service to assist boards and executives to assess their success in these areas and project management for improvement. This can be through strategic ‘away days’ or with a program that works with teams over several weeks. We can offer online and face to face support depending on the issues and resources available. This can include the following:

Interim CEO/Senior Leadership
Project management
Troubleshooting
Change and transformation Programs
Closure oversight
- Interim management
Support to re-negotiate contracts
- Local authorities
- Health contracts
- Pricing structures
Re-structures and re-organisations
Mergers and acquisitions
- Facilitation of negotiations
- Project management
- Integration

Strategy, Planning, Culture And Governance

The value of an external facilitator enables boards and leaders to fully participate in discussions and activities for vital planning. We can bring a fresh perspective and constructive challenge to enable participants to stretch their thinking. We provide specific support for boards of trustees/directors, CEO’s and leadership teams to support them with any of the following:

Developing a culture built around the values and vision of the organisation. This will then flow through into how teams operate, the types of services you offer and how to remain focussed on operating productively whilst holding true to your values.

We can provide advice and guidance for boards around governing document reviews, charity commission requirements and best practice. We also support with succession planning for boards, identifying the needs of a board as well as recruitment, selection and induction.

We can support with service user and staff feedback and analysis. We can develop wellbeing programs for staff including both formal and informal support.

We also work with executive teams, CEO’s and heads of department with succession planning. This links closely with our training and development work, taking account of talent spotting, encouraging development and supporting individuals who have an appetite to advance their careers.
