Our training and coaching services
We help teams work together better by providing training, coaching and wellbeing solutions. Our core services focus on building capacity at line management level.
You want line managers who know how to manage, can solve problems, and support those around them to grow and progress.
We support managers to develop in their roles, gaining effective coaching, wellbeing, and leadership skills. We can also work with you to improve the well-being and communication skills in your broader teams, leading to higher engagement and employee satisfaction.
We work with our clients to create bespoke training and coaching programmes. The pages below will give you a sense of some of the topics and approaches we can incorporate, but the first step is always to discuss your unique goals and requirements and see how we can best support you.
Great management is essential. A recent Gallup study found that "70% of the variance in team engagement is determined solely by the manager."
Our current programmes are designed because we’ve listened to you, the HR person or director who cares for their people.
The kind of concerns and questions we hear from our clients are:
- The processes are in place and we’ve great people, why is it not working?
- This is a good place, people should want to work here, by they don’t; what’s wrong?
- The soft-skills are meant to be ‘soft’; so why are they so hard for us?
