Work Differently

“Knowledge is of no value unless you put it into practice.”
Anton Chekov

There will always be the desire to bring through the next generation of leaders, it is the natural order of things. Their success will depend on how resilient they are to the challenges that line the path, and more importantly, how resourceful and equipped they are on the way.

To this end, it will be your specific business needs that will inform our bespoke training design. We can provide a combination of training programmes with coaching, feedback sessions and practical exercises to develop your people. To give you a flavour, this is some of what we have done with various organisations already:

Developing Future Leaders – starts with how to manage yourself before you manage a team; how to give feedback and conduct effective 1-2-1 sessions; and all the other things you wish you had been taught before your promotion.
Developing Presence – a vital component of success, the willingness and ability to show-up and be seen. Whether it is negotiating, managing clients, presenting, or having a positive impact in meetings, your presence cannot be understated.
Training for Trainers – a modular programme that we have delivered globally and even been nominated for two awards.
Bespoke Modular Management Programmes – this could include leadership development through coaching, assertiveness training, confidence building, delivering excellent customer service, communication skills, and building high performing teams.
Well-Being at Work – a programme created to focus on mental health and designed to bring mental well-being to parity with physical well-being in the workplace.
Outplacement & Future Career Coaching – we live in uncertain times where job security is not what it was. When businesses have to let people go, those remembered as great employers are those who provide a level of on-going support to their fellow humans.

The clever Principal said “You are going to be fifty anyway”

On a holiday to the Philippines, I was lucky enough to see something both clever and stunning. I went to the north of the country to visit the one thing I really wanted to see there, the rice terraces. In the mountainous north, rice fields are just as required to grow the crop needed to feed the people as they are in the flatter lowlands. But with less flat land available, the population optimised what they had and created terraced fields to grow the rice. This is what clever, and in this case stunning, looks like. It embodies the mantra

Purpose – Start where you are; use what you have; do what you can.

If you could only have one of the following, which would you choose? £500k; or greater awareness to a cause close to your heart; or to inspire others to greatness? This week I read one of those ‘great-news-stories’ that pop up every once in a while. An 11-year-old boy slept in a tent in his back garden for 365 days, the purpose was to raise money for a hospice after fundraising events were cancelled due to covid. After he had done the entire year under canvas, he had raised £500k; he had raised awareness of the cause; and he has become

Commitment to your decision, yet flexible in your approach

Can I do commitment? Sure, I can. During lockdown, with gyms closed, I decided to do ‘Couch to 5K’, the running app. I loved it, I was really exhilarated by the continuing challenge and I completed the nine-week course by running three lots of 5K. I feel so much fitter for having done it – this is the value I gained by committing to the app. I run an internal strategy for pretty much most things that I do. I call it ‘the reward before the work’ strategy. Take my run for example, it is a ‘there-and-back circuit’. As I
