The ability to transform team and organisational performance is perhaps the most demanding yet rewarding of leadership challenges. It requires you, the leader, to be tenacious in the pursuit of outcomes and solutions whilst responding effectively to day-to-day challenges, delays and disappointments.
Hedley Basford Management Consultants have helped many organisations with challenging transformation programmes in the UK and Europe in recent years. The Bombardier acquisition of Adtranz from Daimler Chrysler, the integration of schools on Middlesbrough's most challenging council estates, the hyper-expansion and transformation of the business model at Top Gear Ltd, the reversal of massive losses at a consulting division at ABB are just some examples.
Effective leadership is based on trust, faith and belief. It is what people experience of you that matters - a way of being, doing and thinking that has the awesome power to influence and inspire a deep level of personal commitment from those you lead.
We help you and your leaders find the personal courage to dig deep inside yourselves to access the core passions that shape you style and presence, and express them with congruence and confidence - to become truly inspirational. We teach you how to engage, connect, and communicate in ways that create purposeful relationships and deliver consistently amazing results - especially when times are challenging.
Liberating your people to be great at what they do, passionate about execution, and keen to produce results will be like moving your car up several gears. Your business will accelerate and cover much greater distances and directions than you ever imagined possible.
To truly empower people means to help them access the self assurance that comes from clarity and the confidence to act on it. Only when they are emotionally and psychologically capable of accepting additional responsibility, are they truly empowered. And more importantly, only then will you be able to devolve important decisions and actions with confidence. We help you make this a lasting reality in your business - a cultural norm so hard to emulate that it sets you apart from the crowd.
A very effective way to start the process of improving culture is for top management to undergo a personal programme of one to one coaching from trained business counsellors. This can then be extended throughout the organisation, 'retuning' people into new attitudes and patterns of behaviour.
