In the midst of current world events, executive teams are needing to take more and bigger decisions, every day. At speed.
To make wise decisions it’s vital that these teams and their boards are able to have the right sort of conversations. They have to be honest, ‘real’ exchanges.
We partner with you to accelerate your ability to have those conversations - to get better outcomes - sooner and more comfortably.
Founded in 1989 by psychologist, Dr Paul Furey, we are a closely-knit, well-trained team of practitioners that support leaders as they learn to run their businesses more directly, more honestly, more effectively.
We think that real conversations, where people open up and where they really listen to others, hold the key to building enduring relationships, trust and get-up-and-go for decisive action.
When people can talk about things as they really are, can trust one another with their views, fears and ideas, they make what is difficult, do-able. And if people think that things are do-able, they do them.
Boards can only work really well when there is trust. To trust someone you need to understand them. And to understand them you need to be able to have proper conversations.
Each assignment is unique. Whether we are working with an individual, a team or a much larger portion of the organisation, we use our own, tried and tested framework to guide ourselves and our clients to a great result without having to resort to using templates and off-the-shelf solutions. This framework has three phases that we work through with you: learn, simplify, act & communicate.
