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
Longacres
“All of us at Longacres would just like to say a big thanks to Natalie and all the team at People Business for the great help and assistance you have given to us all in the last few years. As our business has grown and expanded the pressure on the HR department was bound to increase. It was with your valued advice and guidance, over a very wide range of issues and challenging situations, that we have managed to cope with all the additional work that has come our way.
While our expanded team should now be able to deal more with the general work we have in such a busy retail environment, it is good to know that you would be available to step in and help deal with any more difficult and complex scenarios that may come our way in the future.”
