Personal Discovery
You believe that people are truly your most important asset, but are you unlocking even a small fraction of their true potential? Do you focus on adding-value to your "human assets" to anything like the extent that you focus on utilising the "capital assets" of your business?
Does this sound all too familiar?
You have been charged with developing the critical foundation blocks of career development for your newly appointed managers or your recent graduate intake. You know it will be hard to hold their attention, you remember what it was like for you shortly after you finished studying and wanted to get stuck into relevant business work. You know that this is important but needs to be personally relevant, highly engaging and focused on the real business they work in.
You know where you want to get to….But you don't know how to get there.
You need them to build self awareness and to understand their impact on others, particularly on the older people that often work for them. It is important they understand how trust is the key to effective relationships and effective organisations. They should know their preferred learning style and what it takes to be an effective team player. Taking responsibility, often without authority is high on the agenda and it is vital that they learn about setting priorities and clearly defining their own purposeful approach. You want them to engage in "win-win" behaviours through effective communication, to value differences and what motivates themselves and others. And if this isn't enough you know that they will not be engaged unless the learning is also fun. Not much to ask then?
Graduates & Emerging Managers
In the age of empowerment, responsibility for others is being devolved to younger and less experienced mangers. In making the transition from academic life to the business world, new recruits need to learn how to manage others and make mature decisions.
Our personal development programme accelerates this learning, enabling them to adapt more quickly to their new role. The programme helps to develop confidence, create self- awareness and improve interpersonal skills.

The Explorer Programme is our personal discovery workshop; it is particularly suitable for people early in their career as it sets the Foundations and Strategies for Personal Development in their working life in organisations
The Route for this journey of discovery takes participants through a six stage process which:
- Is highly interactive
- Uses a variety of learning methods
- Allows time for individual reflection
- Shares experiences within small group work
The facilitated reviews draw parallels to life in the business and create the leverage and the commitment for the application back at work.
