Are you a manager with an underperforming team or demotivated staff?
We have proven methodologies which can increase the performance and motivation of your staff through enhanced leadership capability.
Research continually finds 'leadership development' to be one of the top five priorities for HR and business (for instance see BCG's 2014 research: Creating People Advantage). US companies currently spend US$14Bn per year on leadership initiatives.
Yet Harvard University Professor, Barbara Kellerman, has found that despite the billions of dollars spent on leadership training, leaders are less effective, less ethical and less respected than ever before. No wonder (according to a 2016 report) Australian organizations do not have the leadership skills needed to meet the challenges of 21st century (See Leadership at work: Do Australian leaders have what it takes?)
This lack of leadership does not only damage businesses but also their employees. A study by the Stockholm based Stress Research Institute found that working for a bad manager caused a 60 per cent increase in the risk of heart attack for their employees. In fact research shows that having a bad boss has the same health impact as smoking 20 cigarettes a day!
