Help people build better organisations
Our work spans the whole employee lifecycle, from attracting and recruiting the right people into the right roles to motivating high performance and wellbeing. We empower and liberate CEOs, Senior Leaders, People Managers and HR Teams to build successful and positive organisations.
Based in the science of Positive Psychology, our work increases self-awareness and confidence, encouraging people to be their genuine ‘best selves’. This approach feels human, respectful and enjoyable, so learning is adopted quickly and easily. We empower people to feel involved, engaged and committed, both to their own development and to ‘what comes next’ for their workplace.
You can find out more about our areas of focus below. You won’t find lots of detail because everything that we do is bespoke, but you’ll get a taste of the kind of things we do. It’s also worth noting that our programmes are tailored to meet specific organisational needs and often include elements from each section, spread over several stages to embed learning and ensure the content is always relevant.
We provide platforms to build positive wellbeing for people to flourish and thrive in work and beyond
Stress and mental ill-health are two of the leading causes of long-term workplace absence in the UK. Current approaches often target these symptoms of bigger issues, with the organisation taking a parental approach, for example offering different rewards and benefits, developing awareness of an EAP, offering gym memberships etc. Yet we can see this will not target the cause overall. It is time to take a more strategic approach to building resilience in our people through their own and others’ learning and growth to achieve true wellbeing and help people to thrive and flourish at work.

Our solutions include consultancy, programme design, facilitation of workshops in person or online through to train the trainer options and self-facilitating tools. Have a look at the type of workshops we offer here.

We help develop authentic leaders who motivate great performance
Successful organisations need leaders who are confident and equipped to help those around them perform well and thrive. Many leadership development programmes offer skills training, concepts and theories, but don’t meaningfully enhance the quality of leadership within organisations. Hence, issues around leadership can be so long lasting that they become engrained in the organisation’s culture. Programmes can be time-consuming and complex to design and organise alongside other initiatives. This means HR, L&D and People teams can find themselves stretched too thin and can feel frustrated at the limited return on investment that leadership development interventions seem to have.
Our Strengths Based Leadership approach offers:
Our solutions work in all markets and industries with easy ‘pick and mix’ modules to suit all L&D budgets and organisational needs. Have a look at the type of workshops we offer here.
We help you develop leaders to be proud of. Don’t just take our word for it. Check out a client case story here.

We drive positive performance conversations that people want to have
Traditional performance management focuses on developing our areas of weakness, which can actually decrease performance. It is usually a negative experience for individuals, so managers avoid it, and HR/People teams get bogged down in policing a process. Improvements to performance management processes typically focus on more frequent conversations, and more ownership by the individual, but this alone doesn’t work.
Our specific performance motivation approach helps you:
Our Performance Motivation solutions work in all market sectors and all types of organisation. They can be incorporated into organisations with different existing performance approaches, and be tailored to suit all types of budget. Have a look at the type of workshops we offer here.
We work with you to create a great performance culture. Don’t just take our word for it. Check out a client case story here.

We find the right people for the right roles
We use a strengths-based approach to look beyond competencies and understand not only whether candidates can do a role, but how they will perform and what will motivate them.
We work across all industries, markets and countries. What differentiates us is that we go beyond simply looking for skills to find people who will really flourish in a role.
I need a change, show me the roles Our clients, see who we work with
We support people to be their best.
Our one-to-one and group strengths coaching helps individuals and teams to understand themselves better and feel empowered to grow in directions that feel really authentic.
We coach Leaders and Managers, often as part of broader development programmes, and also provide sessions for individuals who are looking to make changes in their working lives.

We provide simple and practical tools to support learning, many of which are available here for self-facilitation.
Although we focus on creating engaging face-to-face experiences, we know that it’s sometimes helpful to have tools in-house to help embed and sustain learning – or to use when internal capacity is high or budgets are low. Easy for anyone to facilitate, our tools are all based in Positive Psychology theory and designed as platforms for individuals to take accountability for growth in their role, team and organisation.
