Corporate Social Responsibility
We go beyond the notion of ‘work-life balance’ and specialise in helping organisations manage ‘well-being’ in ways that align customer, organisational and employee needs. By placing human interest alongside commercial success we generate improved performance, better relationships and extended capability.
The capacity for an organisation to respond to challenges is finally dependent on the vigour and flexibility of its human resources. Individuals today are being called upon to sustain a rapid pace of work and change, which requires them to be healthy, capable of taking responsibility and stretched without tipping over into over-stressed.
Since the culture of any organisation comes from the top, we work with senior executives to decide on appropriate changes necessary within the whole organisation to meet business challenges. If leadership development is necessary a programme of intense and focussed coaching of the company’s actual and potential influencers and achievers is undertaken.
We help the organisation understand the commercial imperatives for work-life balance and well-being, and work with the staff to bring about the necessary culture changes that will result in a resilient and forward-looking business. Should the company need to explore issues of diversity we are in a good position to help. To help the company quantify the impact of culture-change investment, we develop hard measures to assess progress over time.
Shared beliefs take time to shift into new patterns, so we consider it crucial that the organisation sustains continuous growth from within rather than creating consultant-dependency. We embed learning by generating stories, designing self-help tools, and developing communication strategies, all of which further raises positive energy for change.
We raise awareness of personal as well as business needs by guiding managers and their teams to develop environments that encourage flexibility and change. We support the growth of talent from within through mentoring and coaching, particularly for line and key professional staff who are leading the change process.
Through facilitating highly interactive workshops and tailored training programmes we identify ways for individuals to work smarter rather than harder or longer to engender a better work-life balance. We also work on developing resilience to deal with uncertainty, pressure and stress. Teams can then support each other and manage change collectively in very practical ways.
A key part of our success is encouraging debate about issues important to people but rarely given air-time. We provide forums and processes to bring teams and their key partners together to discuss expectations and to contract ‘how’ they will work for mutual benefit and deliver business results.
Business processes can get out of step as the organisation changes, so we help the company stay alert to the need to realign fundamental processes that would otherwise hold back the pace of change by sinking emerging innovations under old procedures. We work with existing staff to deliver streamlined processes and procedures, which creates ownership and empowers them to update internal business processes with future changes driven by commercial needs.
The benefits experienced by clients include staff retention, reduced absenteeism and improved levels of customer and staff satisfaction.
