How does UK plc management compare with our competitor countries?

I have recently read a research report on some joint work between the London School of Economics, Cambridge and Stanford Universities and McKinsey into the quality of management in UK manufacturing companies relative to other countries and its effects on economic performance. I thought I would share some of the surprising results with you.

Our Services:

Employee Engagement

Employee engagement is the hard issue that CEOs must get to grips with. It predicts profitability and ensures long term growth and market out-performance.

Innovative work practices can be generated through effective engagement approaches, building a culture of team performance and responsibility for your business.

We can assist you in choosing how to develop and manage your engagement strategy, and in enhancing internal capability and skill to rise to the performance challenge. Our approach integrates several elements in a tailored plan specific to you.

Learning & Development

Our workshops and training events enable your management teams to develop practical skills and prepare effective plans for aligning and delivering their goals for improving business performance.

We design and deliver large scale development programmes, workshops for specific skills, mentoring and coaching for managers, and web based modules for self-learning.

Surveys & Diagnostics

With our partners we provide customer and employee research for a wide variety of organisations to evaluate factors such as organisational engagement, change and customer perception.

We pride ourselves on offering excellent value for money and rapid turnaround of results.

We also provide diagnostic services to teams and individuals to help with personal development and learning activities.

Transformation Services

Transformation programmes can be very positively received when the culture and the new requirements are aligned and integrated with care.

But we so often hear of programmes that have been ill thought out and poorly executed.

We provide transformation planning and execution services that enable client organisations to work with the prevailing culture and involve and engage employees at the earliest appropriate stage to achieve radical change in planned time-scales.
