Coaching and Workshops
Coaching
My policy is to only offer coaching in those areas where I have deep expertise.
Individual coaching for balanced living
Sometimes a significant life change, such as parenthood or the sudden debility of an older relative prompts a rethink to the way we wish to combine work and caring responsibilities. At other times, it may simply be the growing realisation we've become exhausted with the constant juggling. My coaching approach is to gently guide you in developing a picture of how work-life balance would look and feel for you; and working with you to identify the steps needed to make this a reality.
Upgrading your recruitment process for the 21st Century
Generally offered as a "follow-on" for people who've already attended my Attracting and Recruiting the 21st Century Workforce workshop (see below). Individual coaching allows me to work more closely with you to upgrade and revamp your recruitment processes and target scarce talent more effectively.
One year strategic skills coaching programme
The ideal solution for HR specialists wanting consultancy support in their professional work, but preferring the security of a structured, manageable process. This is a twelve month programme of tailored coaching and mentoring support which will enable you to address key 21st century workplace challenges within your organisation while developing your own strategic and project management skills.
Workshops
In 2010 I will be running the following one-day open workshops in central London:
Attracting and Recruiting the 21st Century Workforce
"Definitely useful for recruitment professionals and HR." Participant, Credit Suisse
Offering more flexible working arrangements can enhance your organisation's reputation as an Employer of Choice, and attract a wider range of potential talent to you. This highly interactive workshop equips in-house recruiters with the skills to develop attraction and recruitment strategies linked to organisational flexible working and equality policies.
This workshop received excellent feedback when I ran it as part of the Working Families masterclass series in 2008.
"It made me think more about how we do what we do. Overall very enlightening and thought provoking."
Participant, Birmingham City Council
Cultivating Resilience, Wellbeing and Balance
Leading a satisfying life means mastering the dynamic art of maintaining personal balance. This juggling act requires an ability to control the various demands on our time and energy and to take change of our stress levels. By developing resilience we can successfully meet the dynamic challenges of recurring change. This unique workshop provides participants with the tools to increase psychological resilience, counter the negative effects of stress and manage a personally satisfying work-life balance.
Re-thinking HR strategy for the 21st Century
What are the key external issues likely to impact on internal talent attraction and retention strategies? How can organisations harness the power of positive psychology to manage change more effectively? What does the HR Director or Business Partner need to understand about the nature of the 21st century workforce to fully contribute at the strategic level? These are some of the questions we will be answering as we review the key factors remodeling the 21st Century HR landscape. Designed to be highly interactive, this workshop will enable participants to review and revise their own HR strategies.
Redesigning Work for Flexibility
This workshop is currently under development and will be available in the second half of 2010.
Traditional working patterns are increasingly inappropriate in a global, 24 hour, networked economy. This workshop will combine work redesign principles from established business practice and emergent thinking from the new paradigm of positive psychology; and consider how structures such as job descriptions, policies, management development, performance management and HR support systems all need to change if they're to provide a firm foundation for effective flexible working arrangements.
All workshops can be tailored to client requirements and run in-house.
