Our Toolbox

Some of the tools we utilise

CliftonStrengths & Affiliated Coaching

Strengths science answers questions about what’s right with people rather than what’s wrong with them.

• The formula Talent x Investment = Strength captures a profound concept in a simple fashion.
• Your strengths are your “naturally recurring patterns of thought, feeling or behavior.” They’re the innate, natural abilities you can productively apply.
• When Clifton studied human behavior, he noted hundreds of positive characteristics and saw that many of those characteristics had commonalities. Based on those common traits, he distilled them down into the 34 talent themes.
• Talent is a natural way of thinking, feeling or behaving.
• But to turn those talents into strengths, you must invest in them — practice using them and add knowledge and skills to them.
• Strength is the ability to consistently provide near-perfect performance in a specific task.
• A strengths-based approach to management is the single best means of improving the employee-manager relationship to improve employee engagement.
• But the impact of strengths-based development isn’t limited just to employee engagement
• In addition to higher levels of engagement, Gallup research shows that employees who receive strengths-based development experience increased performance and lower attrition.
• Workgroups that receive strengths-based development post increased profit and sales while delivering higher customer engagement metrics.

Integrative Enneagram Solutions & Affiliated Coaching

The Enneagram is a psychological tool that can help individuals and teams achieve their goals by identifying core beliefs and thought patterns. It goes beyond simply categorising individuals and offers guidance for personal growth. Certified practitioners can lead clients and their teams on a journey of self-discovery, integration, and growth, accelerating the coaching process and providing deeper insights into their own personalities. The Enneagram is suitable for various coaching approaches, such as conflict resolution and team coaching. It was developed by practitioners, Oscar Ichazo and Claudio Naranjo and has been expanded upon by psychology, spirituality, and organisational development experts.

The Enneagram is based on sound psychodynamic research and uncovers underlying motivations. It helps us understand ourselves better by identifying core avoidances, triggers, and defences, revealing blind spots and defensive processes. It is an effective tool for coaches and leaders who wish to incorporate Neuro-leadership and Neuroscience principles into individual and team development goals. Our viewpoint and attention shape our beliefs, self-image, and relationships, and the Enneagram can assist with this understanding.

Performance Management Systems

Old school? Not in our minds! If you can measure it, you can change it. A well thought out, relevant and easy to use performance management tool creates the foundation for structured, honest dialogue, sets time aside to identify personal and corporate goals and progresses collaboration between managers and team members. If used properly it creates better relationships, improves trust and performance and holds people accountable. Every person needs feedback to grow.
