Consultancy and Facilitation
We are often invited to be a critical friend to support organisations navigating change. Our human relations approach brings more collaborative working, impactful culture change and authentic leadership.
Organisation Hub
Organisations are an amazing blend of people, systems and the relationships between them. When conscious change is called for, we go beyond the obvious to enable enduring development.
Organisations and the people within them are facing significant challenges in order to thrive in a fast-moving, complex and unpredictable world. Constraints, opportunities and ‘wicked’ problems surround most endeavours as they strive to be fit for the future. We place the human element at the heart of the way forward.
We work co-creatively in relationship with our organisational clients to create long-term partnerships that produce meaningful change. Our clients are effectively change agents – whether they be business owners and Directors or those with specialist responsibility for people, including HR, OD and L&D professionals.
Our work includes enabling deep culture change, facilitating authentic collaboration, embedding new ways of working and developing globally responsible leadership and practices. We do this through programmes, organisational development and consultancy, collaborative inquiries, one-to-one development, and the Resilience and Wellbeing Network.
We provide hubs for people, organisations and initiatives seeking to learn from each other, work with their questions, and discover ways forward on the critical challenges, asking: ‘What new ways of leading, living and learning together are emerging and making a difference for the benefit of the person, the organisation and society?’
How we develop organisations
Leadership
We are pioneers of a different kind of leader development, one that enables people to develop the skills they need to lead with confidence; to thrive in change and, crucially, to collaborate in genuinely effective relationships. We have a variety ways we support leadership development.
Programmes
Innovative, challenging and thought-provoking learning opportunities to develop you and your organisation. Be confident that you have the resources you need for what you want to do with your life. Programmes are open to individuals or can be tailored to your organisation and delivered in-house.
Coaching and Mentoring
Unlock potential and empower performance through transformative coaching using our unique Whole Person approach to foster creativity, innovation and collaboration, and bring about lasting change.
Employee Wellbeing
Shape proactive wellbeing initiatives to help your people achieve their full potential and sustain your organisation into the future. Let us support you to craft and execute your own wellbeing strategy or join our collaborative Resilience and Wellbeing Network to share best practice.
In organisations, real power and energy is generated through relationships. The patterns of relationships and the capacities to form them are more important than tasks, functions, roles, and positions.
