From good to great

Great business results are achieved through great people so how do you support your teams from good to great?

Leadership and coaching options includes:

  • Upskilling your leaders and employees through coaching and mentoring
  • Legacy planning by developing your talent pool of future leaders
  • Adapting to business changes by identifying skills gaps and how to fill them
  • Apprenticeship expertise to make the most of available funding and opportunities
  • Sales coaching for team members and sales-specific workshops for teams
  • Building business resilience through cultural and behaviour change programmes

You can get most from the support in a comprehensive programme (minimum three months). Or choose one of my workshops for bite-sized approaches to develop your teams. or enrol a team member in my virtual leadership academy.

My independent role means I can give your teams impartial, non-judgmental support, working in confidence to help your people realise their leadership goals.

And to help build the skills in your organisation further, I can help you develop an apprenticeship programme to upskill or take on new talent. Whether your organisation pays the apprenticeship levy or not, my expertise in this field will give you a pathway to improvement and ideas for easier implementation.

Contact me for a free 30-minute consultation to explore your organisation’s needs. Or find out more about how the programme works.

My support is bespoke to your organisation and your people. Your leadership & team development programme will have different elements that are tailored to your situation and goals.

Options include:

  • A dedicated, non-judgmental coach, mentor or advisor
  • Coaching sessions – each session lasts 90 minutes, delivered in small groups or one-to-one (a minimum of six sessions recommended)
  • Facilitated workshops
  • Consultancy support and planning around apprenticeships
  • Face-to-face or remote access
  • Ongoing support package

 

How will coaching help? Coaching taps into how people operate and encourages them to develop their confidence and build on positive behaviours. It also uses techniques to manage traits and limiting beliefs. It is individualised and works with people to nudge them towards a goal. Done well, people feel supported to change and this will improve how they interact at work with colleagues and customers and even in their personal life. Successful coaching gives you ideas and tools that you can use easily as well as supporting you to achieve longer-term behaviour change.

How long does the process last?

Programmes can last from three months to a year depending on your needs.

How do you set the programme?

I take the proper time to get to know your organisation, understand the problems you face and the goals and objectives you want to achieve. From this, I suggest a bespoke solution for your organisation and your people.

How much does it cost?

I deliver competitively priced coaching, team and leadership services and can break the programme into stages to meet your budget. My added value is my deep experience in apprenticeship strategy and solutions that can help businesses develop an extra dimension to their talent pipeline.

Apprenticeships

Apprenticeships help you upskill existing staff as well as take on new talent to develop your business. Organisations and charities can also work together to use up unspent apprenticeship levy making it a great way to support local businesses and not-for-profits and expand your CSR and values-driven activities. With my extensive experience – including leading the apprenticeship programme for a global awarding institution – I can help all organisations build a successful strategic and tactical apprenticeship programme.
