Coaching
As a trusted business partner the focus of our coaching services is on working in partnership with you
to help support, foster and facilitate organisational, business, team and individual growth, development, performance and prosperity, and operational optimisation, in as an effective and high impact manner as possible. Our key coaching focus is understanding and changing behaviours and developing knowledge skills, competencies and attributes.
To achieve this, we question, listen, counsel, guide and advise; deploy tools and techniques such as action learning; models such as GROW and COACH and, when appropriate, deploying more formal learning and development tools and techniques. We like to particularly focus helping clients across five pillars:
Developing best practice and leading-edge knowledge, skills and competencies
Understanding organisational and team dynamics
Building collaborative, learning organisations
Building high performance cultures
Building engaging, enabling, empowering and enriching people and talent cultures
Importantly, as part of our commitment to helping and supporting clients to develop ‘learning’ organisations and cultures, we like to help develop high impact opportunities for cross organisational collaboration, communication and feedback.
In working with organisational, team and individual clients, we understand the importance of optimising the alignment between the organisation, team and individual and their potentially differing aspirations, priorities and requirements.
