Transformative Leadership Consulting
Helping leaders to overcome challenges, develop their skills and effect change across their organisations
Initial consultation meetings
Whether you know the services you want to explore with Hayley, or simply know you need some guidance, your journey will begin with a relaxed consultation meeting.
This session will provide an opportunity for Hayley to learn about you, your team and organisation, its culture and politics. You’ll discuss your challenges, who is involved with the issues you’re navigating, your goals, plans for development, and more.
These Initial consultation sessions provide Hayley with the information she needs to compile a selection of services, combining further leadership consulting, coaching, courses and programmes, tailored to you, your team, and their challenges and goals.
Hayley understands that organisations like yours spend too much time and money on one size fits all training approaches, and uses these early consultations to create effective support solutions tailored to your unique needs. Solutions you not only need, but want, that help you and your team to achieve your goals and enable you to build high-performing teams that meet your organisational mission.
Leadership consulting support
Know you need some support but not quite sure what help you need? Want a second perspective?
Perhaps you’re looking to motivate your team? Minimise office politics? Increase their confidence and efficiency? Or achieve something specific, quickly and effectively?
Hayley’s leadership consulting sessions are effective in taking a birds eye view of your development, your department or organisation, to help identify challenges, gaps and problem areas, the factors in need of development, and your existing strengths.
These sessions are tailored entirely to you and your team, your challenges and goals, and offer a professional, valuable perspective you’re unlikely to have in-house. They provide the opportunity for Hayley to share strategies that have worked for other leaders and organisations, and determine factors hindering your personal growth, the growth of your team and organisation.
You’ll work with Hayley to identify the aspects of personalities that could hinder development and growth, both in yourself and across your team and organisation, having your responses and points of view challenged along the way to help you consider multiple perspectives.
The outcomes of these leadership consulting meetings enable Hayley to compile a tailored plan for you and your team, which could include not only a mix of coaching, courses or programmes, but helping you to write policies and procedures, plan and conduct staff surveys, mediate conversations and more.
Whether you’re a CEO/MD/Director, Head of Service or work within Human Resources/Organisational Development, Hayley’s consulting support could help you to transform your skills, your department and organisation.
Group leadership consulting sessions
Committed to delivering solutions that are influenced by the people they will affect, Hayley also offers group leadership consulting.
Group sessions are recommended when one-on-one consulting sessions reveal that other individuals are central to the challenges your department and organisation are navigating, and enable Hayley to assess the perspectives of everyone involved, and diagnose the root cause.
At the end of your group leadership consulting session, Hayley will create a bespoke solution of support that may include a combination of coaching, courses and programmes, to enable each member of the group to develop their skills, overcome their challenges, and help your department and organisation to meet its goals.
