Coaching

“Training combined with coaching produces an increase in productivity of 88%”

International Personnel Management Association 1997

Coaching is one of the most effective methods of enhancing performance. It involves  deliberate and specific activities that are designed to help people develop their skills by learning on the job. A good coach leads highly productive teams who are keen to learn new skills and as a result significantly increase the cost effectiveness and efficiency of their department/organisation.

In coaching we will explore the value of various tools including the Five Factor Personality Model, the Pearson Marr Archetypal Indicator and the VIA strengths survey created by Martin Seligman.

Presentation Skills

“Suit the action to the word and the word to the action!

Delivering a presentation with confidence requires skills, professionalism and confidence. Successful presenters can deliver a persuasive and convincing presentation with style and impact, and as a result achieve their desired response. This workshop concentrates on the three ‘p’s of presentation- ‘preparation, practice and performance’. Delegates will practice several different styles of presentation and be guided and encouraged by an experienced coach. Delegates should come to the course with an outline of a presentation to work on.

Stress Management

How much does stress cost? The Confederation of British Industry has estimated that mental health and stress problems cost employers £5bn, and the Institute of Management has estimated that every day, more than a quarter of a million people take time off work because of work-related stress. That sets the British economy back £7bn a year in sick pay, lost production and costs to the NHS.

On a personal level stress is having an enormous impact on a people’s health and well being. People can experience a wide range of symptoms including physical, emotional and mental difficulties. As a result there is an increasing demand for effective methods to manage and limit the effects of stress on the individual.  The Re-mind approach draws upon the latest research in neuroscience, Cognitive and Behavioural Therapy, Mindfulness and is a truly integrated approach to help anyone manage their stress, worry, fear or anxiety

Values Audit

“We’re going to see companies increasingly assume that what they stand for in an enduring sense is more important than what they sell.

Jim Collins – Built to Last

Having a clearly defined set of values is essential for the long-term success of any business. In an increasingly competitive and changing world it is essential that businesses are able to meet all the challenges that they may face and whether we realise it or not the values held by the business affect every aspect of the business and the lives of their employees. Businesses need to ask themselves many questions and these  include: How to attract and keep talented people? How to increase profitability and shareholder value? How to increase creativity, productivity and customer satisfaction?
