ABOUT US :-
Consultancy Works brings together seasoned consultants who are passionate about helping organisations – and the people within them – realise their full potential. We aim to explore the roots of an issue and develop bespoke solutions that bring about sustainable change. We want to develop a bond of trust with you so that we can engage in genuine and honest conversations that can be hear
d. In doing so, we can share our real knowledge and understanding with each other, build on our strengths and together move organisations forward. We nurture this process by using best practice methods and up to date techniques of leadership and organisation development, measurement and evaluation, and throughout remaining focused on outcomes. Our aim is to provide consulting interventions that are effective, sustainable and value for money. Our Approach
To be successful in the current environment requires individual and organisational leadership behaviours that are of the highest quality, that are effective and engaging. Where working with fewer resources means changing your thinking, while valuing and respecting the individuals you work with and who work for you; and listening to your customers. It means focussing on creating a genuine shared belief in the future of your organisation, how to get there and the value you and your team can deliver. We appreciate there are risks to be managed on this journey and we understand the importance of striking a balance between giving people space to grow and act alongside being corporately accountable. We do this by working with you to understand your organisation through four distinct but related lenses:
Your context, along with the challenges and opportunities it brings. The leadership attitudes, skills and knowledge that you and your people have, what they need to be in the future and the path you need to take to get there. Your partners you need to remain true to, to deliver your purpose and vision through effective and mutually beneficial relationships. Your results – not just how much you’ve achieved, but understanding how those results have been achieved, and the sustainability of their impact. Our credible, reliable and honest approach builds on values of integrity, generosity of spirit, remaining grounded, and being appreciative. Our Work
Each client’s situation is unique, so prescriptive solutions are inadequate. We therefore work with clients in various ways to design innovative processes that meet their exact requirements. Because of the inherent uncertainty of organisational change, we place particular emphasis on a real partnership with our clients, a thorough understanding of their organisations, design flexibility and attention to outcomes. While clients value our analysis, experience, and real-world business acumen: they trust us most for our intuitive and practical approach to development. Blending theory and practice
We are rigorous in our analysis, ground our consulting practice in respected organisational and psychological theory; and use proven methods of learning and delivery. We overlay theory with practical consideration of the interpersonal and political aspects of change. Above all, we never forget that our clients have successful businesses to run and their employees’ well-being to consider. We take particular care to address people’s emotional and behavioural responses to change; dealing with tensions and smoothing the transitions from resentment to advocacy. We also design initiatives that deal with complex group and inter-group dynamics and foster development processes across the whole organisation. All of our consultants have Masters degrees or similar, and many contribute to academic programmes at leading business schools - including Sheffield and Ashridge.
