Thanks to the 90 delegates who joined us at HR Summit on 24 July!

We maxed out the audience at our Optimising Team Effectiveness workshop last week.  It was standing room only for latecomers and demand exceeded supply of our Team Assessment Tool.  Sarah shared our experiences working with teams to build their capacity to work collaboratively, productively and respectfully, one step at a time.

We will be launching our Team Assessment Tool on our website this week. Watch this space!

Executive Team Effectiveness

Due to the success and positive feedback of our previous event, we are pleased to invite you to join our February virtual event for an interactive session on enhancing the effectiveness of executive and senior leadership teams.

We know that most executive teams are highly skilled in business analysis and decision-making around strategy, finance, marketing, and technology, either as a collective or as individual executives. This is the ‘smart’ art of making organisations successful.  The more nebulous aspects of business functioning that make an organisation healthy, like minimal politics, minimal confusion, high morale and productivity and low turnover are harder to pinpoint, let alone lead and manage.  In this 1 hour complimentary event we will share insights on what makes organisations and their most senior teams ‘healthy’.

Based on Brockhurst Consulting’s proven Highly Effective Teams Framework combined with the wisdom of Patrick Lencioni’s First Teams model, we will lead a discussion and provide insights on optimising your senior leadership team’s dynamics and effectiveness.

Through the engaging facilitation by our expert leadership consultants and coaches you will gain an understanding of:

  • The key elements of highly effective senior leadership teams
  • Practical ways to build the foundations that lead to healthy organisation, and leadership dynamics
  • Practices that have increased the cohesion and collective functioning and outcomes of senior leadership teams
  • Attending this free event is a must if you’re looking to enhance the dynamics of your senior team and build organisational performance.

The event activities are highly interactive so you will also meet new colleagues and share ideas for effective teamwork.

Who will benefit from this event?

  • Business Leaders, Executives, Senior Leaders, Middle Managers
  • Organisation Development/Learning and Development Practitioners
  • HR Business Partners

Event details:

  • Wednesday, February 28, 2024, 12.00 – 1.00pm

Autonomy Australian Style

Autonomy Australian Style

, , , , , , , ,

Most of living (and working) on this big beautiful island can relate to swimming between the flags at the beach.

We know that if we are within the flags, the lifeguards are watching, and we are safe.  We can do whatever we want in the water without breaking any common laws.  We are having safe fun.

When we are young or inexperienced, we need the flags to be pretty close together.  Then, as we grow in confidence and capability, we can swim in a bigger surf with the flags further apart.

All the while, the lifeguards keep an eye on all the other factors that we are not.  The weather coming over the horizon, communications from Life Saving on broader conditions,  feedback from the chopper on any shark activity.

What happens if the flags are too close together?

It feels restrictive.  We want to go outside and explore.  It is crowded, boring, perhaps we leave that beach and go to another one.

It all gets pretty hard for everyone, no one is having fun, and no one is as safe as they could be.

If the lifeguards can take a step back and trust those in the water, move the flags out a bit but not take them away, the swimmers will feel trusted and get back to having fun (doing their job).

As leaders, let’s ask ourselves, “can I move the flags out a bit here” is there room for some autonomy in our new way of working.

Ask yourself:

  • Can my staff swim?  (capability)
  • Can they handle a bit more space to have fun and do their job?  (autonomy)
  • Can they take more options to be creative?  (creativity)
  • Can they survive being dumped by a slightly bigger wave (make a mistake)?

Most of the people I speak to are ready for their flags to be moved out.

Leaders out there, dare and give it a go.

If you want to discuss how to do this safely, drop us a line.

Case Study – Technical Sales Organisation

, , , , , ,

Summary

A national industrial rental company with an EBIT which had flat lined for several years and facing challenging external economic conditions asked us to support them with a business growth strategy.

Challenge

  • The economic impact on the business due to changes in the mining sector were significant
  • There was a poor sales culture including no consistent sales approach
  • No detailed competitor analysis had been conducted
  • Teams were working in silos
  • Decision making authority was unclear and inconsistent
  • There was limited opportunity for staff to provide feedback
  • There was a lack of accountability to outcomes

Our Response

  • Specific sales training was provided for both inbound and outbound sales teams
  • A Senior Leadership Team was established and individual/group coaching provided to enhance capability and confidence in leading through change
  • Group workshops were facilitated with all teams to encourage ideas, input and ownership of the way forward
  • New roles were created to support the new ways of working 
  • A master program plan with clear accountabilities and timelines was developed and maintained
  • Transparent tracking of performance was implemented, and reward and recognition programs were linked to performance
  • Two-way communication channels were set up between leadership and team members, and regular meetings with defined frameworks were introduced

.Results

Within 2 years:

  • Over 900 new additional contacts in the CRM
  • Over 500 planned face to face customer meetings had occurred
  • Revenue had increased by 20%
  • EBIT had increased by 43%
  • New products had been added to the inventory
