Building positive
cultures.
During periods of rapid change and substantial growth it can be tricky to maintain a positive organisational culture and ensure that core values are maintained. Mactavish recognised these risks and commissioned us to work with them to support their people and culture agenda.
Providing advice and support across a broad range of issues including staff development, performance management, team effectiveness and leadership practices our focus has been on helping the organisation build a positive organisational culture. Sometimes this has involved workshops or teambuild events, in other instances we have provided coaching or mentoring support to leaders and managers across the organisation. Throughout, our focus has been on helping the client to develop processes, practices and behaviours that
allow people to thrive.

Developing leaders and managers.
Thank you so much for your time, expertise and support over the past few months. It has been a significant development for our team leaders.

Effective leadership is critical in any organisation – but none more so than in a busy Intensive Care Unit.
Positive Leadership training, built around the principles of strengths-based leadership and the science of wellbeing and motivation, helped the Band 6 and 7 Nurses at Calderdale and Huddersfield ICU develop their skills.
The training programme was designed to maximise potential benefits to both individual delegates and the team as a whole. With a blend of face-to-face workshops and online facilitated sessions, we explored how to engage and motivate staff in a way that enables everyone to thrive. With a particular focus on communication, managing performance effectively and building strong relationships, we encouraged delegates to reflect on their personal experience while sharing evidence-based theory and practices. The nurses identified a number of ways they could develop their own skills and practices, taking away some practical tools they could start using immediately.
Strengthening
teams.
Strengths-based teams are four times more engaged.

With a brand new leadership team in place, our challenge was to help them build a strong, high-performing team with a clear identity and positive interpersonal relationships.
Working with an internal coach who had a long-standing relationship with several of the team members, we designed a strengths-based teambuild process that allowed individuals to explore their own strengths and the strengths they saw in each other. Through a facilitated process the group reflected on the collective strengths of the team, how they each contributed to that and what that meant for how they worked together and how they best served the organisation they were leading.
The teambuild process involved several elements, including At My Best 360, a one-day team event and 1-1 coaching as well as ongoing support for the team to implement and embed strengths-based practices.
Enabling
people.
Societe Generale takes its responsibility for staff wellbeing seriously. They recognise the importance of making sure their people have the knowledge and skills they need to look after themselves and support those they work with. We deliver a number of workshops on a regular basis, as part of their core training curriculum, that are designed to support staff wellbeing.
All of the workshops are highly interactive, built on evidence-based psychological research and focused on equipping people to maintain and build behaviours and habits that will have a positive impact on their psychological, social and physical wellbeing.
We love working with Michele and Martin, we have developed a great partnership and they really bring value and context to the sessions they deliver!
