Fostering collaboration
Getting people on board in a way that fosters collaboration
Just getting on with others in the workplace is not enough to achieving personal or organisational objectives. The ability to truly influence others and negotiate effectively is essential for building stronger working relationships that drive growth and performance. Understanding others perspectives and our own emotional intelligence is at the very heart of our abilities to persuade and influence.
Creating better working relationships happens one conversation at a time. How this happens will depend on many different factors such as current quality of stakeholder relationships, your own levels of confidence and your own awareness of how you ‘come across’ to others.
It takes a strong blend of capability and confidence to navigate away from making do with artificial harmony and lean more into difficult conversations, shape outcomes and turn challenging situations into opportunities for growth.
What our clients say about us
Robert Holzberger, Operations Director, Victoria Miro Gallery
“I highly recommend People Business for HR support for any business that requires professional, personable and up-to-date HR advice and assistance. People Business has been central to our HR needs over the last 10 years. As Victoria Miro doesn’t have a dedicated HR professional, I rely on People Business to help us through complex employee situations and provide contractual advice. Having them on call is reassuring and has worked well for our company. The HR Development and Mentoring Programme also enabled me to establish some important HR fundamentals at the Gallery.
The People Business team are incredibly professional yet personal, and their knowledge of employment law and advice is invaluable. I can’t recommend People Business highly enough.”
