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
Punam Owens, Executive of Quality Operations, MSD
“People Business successfully understood the need and were able to build a bespoke programme which was then delivered across the organisation. The personal, small group approach really allowed for rich and robust discussions around change, change leadership, impact of change and how to navigate change.
The agility of People Business is excellent. They were able to check in at key timepoints and pivot/adjust based on real time feedback to ensure that the potential of the programme outcomes was achieved. The use of Typecoach has created a “common language” across the group; the system’s data-based approach really resonated with the team, creating many “aha” moments and insights.
We are seeing positive changes in recent employee pulse survey and more importantly in day-to-day interactions and collaborative dialogue between associates, where Typecoach is often a conversation starter. The program has enabled the organisation with tools and foundational insights upon which we can continue to build, thus building sustainability versus a one-time initiative.”
