GROWING HIGH PERFORMANCE TEAMS AND LEADERS
Unique principles and methods we ‘borrowed’ from special forces, evolved in elite sport and perfected for business
WHAT WE DO
LEADERSHIP AND TEAM PERFORMANCE PROGRAMMES
Our next generation approach to leadership training and team development is underpinned by behavioural science and supported by thirty years of high-performance coaching experience. We create leaders and teams that are built for the pace, complexity and volatility of the modern business world.
Our methods transform performance.
As every individual and team is different, our development programme is always bespoke. We combine critical skills with developing emotional intelligence (EI) and rapid decision-making strategies. We utilise Insights Discovery Profiling in the early stages of the programme and our acting team to create realistic scenarios to test skills and provide feedback at the end.
WHY WE DO WHAT WE DO
Our Mission: Creating harmony in the workplace, one team at a time.
We spend so much of our life at work, it should be inspirational, not just a means to pay the bills. Our clients feel the same way.
WHY WE'RE WORLD LEADING

One of the secrets of our success in sport has been the understanding of how to create behavioural change that stands up under pressure. We found that the same principles apply to people skills (emotional intelligence).

We recognise the the workplace is where we learn and if we can get teams help to provide feedback that doesn't offend, then we can unlock the power of personal performance. It is our colleagues that see us in action, at our best and at our worst. An essential component of the team programmes we create is helping teams to coach each other; to ask great questions, provide amazing feedback, inspire themselves and each other to perform at their best. This is a powerful aspect of all our programmes.

One of the components of Olympic Team GB's success has been its ability to learn faster than the opposition. In such a fast changing environment, the only way to stay ahead is to be expert at learning and adapting, to be curious about the how and why, to dig deeper, to reflect objectively on your skills and weaknesses, to push yourself, to be challenged.
OUR 'UN-TRADITIONAL' APPROACH
Performance focus
Partnerships, not packages
Partnerships, not packages
Business is like Olympic sport in that it has a bottom line and a clear measure of success. It may not be about medals but as skill practitioners, we help teams recognise how their performance impacts on the success of the team. We can help shape and measure improvement and success and provide a rich source of feedback to inspire and excel.

Real change in behaviours and skills is not achieved by a single workshop. Change needs to be nurtured and encouraged on a daily/weekly basis; it takes courage to try something different. We prefer to work alongside our teams, to generate informal and regular connections to help optimise performance change. A trusted advisor, not a one session deliverer.
