We help you rise
COACHING
We understand that you are unique, that’s why our executive coaching and mentoring programmes are bespoke. We develop the appropriate style to suit the individual.
We identify clear goals and shape the right methodology for each person.
We track progress, explore changing needs and provide ongoing mentoring services and support to improve performance in real life situations.
STRATEGY
Strategy is THE plan of business. It should point to where a company is headed and map the route. But in the whirlwind of change strategy must be revisited and re-thought regularly.
We work with leadership teams to refresh their ideas in ways that will be valued by the market and by every part of the organisation.
We get businesses on-trend and on the money.
DELIVERY
Acting decisively in uncertain times separates leaders from followers.
The most effective leaders make sense of ambiguity by providing strategic clarity and bringing out the best in the people around them. They make few decisions themselves and coach their teams to success. We call this leading from the side, and it is at the heart of our coaching and mentoring to improve delivery.
We look to the future with clients to explore the behaviours that will achieve goals and drive sustainable success. Then we help to embed the behaviours as new habits.
How was Churchill shaped by other leaders? (with David Reynolds, Emeritus Professor of International History at University of Cambridge)
Most of us think of Churchill as the uniquely-gifted warrior-leader who led the nation to victory in the Second World War. He is the role-model for courageous leadership, pugnacious negotiation and brilliant communication. He is the archetypal big picture strategist.
Winston Churchill was all these things, and more. However, in his new book Mirrors of Greatness historian David Reynolds, our leading expert on the two world wars and the Cold War, seeks to paint a more personal, nuanced portrait of Churchill in relation to other leaders by showing how he mirrored them, and they him. Explaining how Churchill was shaped, David discusses the key roles played by wartime allies Stalin and Roosevelt, political rivals Chamberlain and Attlee, enemies Hitler, Mussolini and Gandhi, and his influential leader-wife Clementine.
Leadership-lessons from a great leader in his context.
