Our consultants have experience of working in different business sectors, the public sector and not-for-profit organisations as line managers as well as consultants, so we come with a practical understanding of your working environment.
We also have the capability to use innovative, large group participation processes to ensure rapid and dynamic development and implementation that overcomes much of the resistance experienced with traditional methodologies. (For more information on these processes, look at our Meeting Facilitation pages).
A key theme for the past few years has been Employee Engagement. Read an article from Cuttings on the subject and read a case study of my work at Dundee City Council
