Leadership Consultancy

Leadership consultancy can profoundly benefit your organisation through the introduction of additional expertise, drive and understanding.

The right blend of knowledge about your situation and relative objectivity and neutrality delivered in a supportive and compassionate way can make a critical difference.

Wouldn’t you like to benefit from the transformation this can stimulate?

Leadership Consultancy gets the job done

“Leadership Consultancy” is the best label for an engagement to assist you in achieving your aim of changing or improving your organisation, in contrast to “Team Coaching”, which implies working with the team to help them achieve change and improvement in the organisation.

In other words, coaching is about helping the team learn to do the job themselves and consultancy means a deeper level of involvement directly helping to achieve the outcome.

In reality, most engagements involve a bit of both, but the emphasis varies.

The outcome of a consultancy engagement could be many things including:

  • Effective, enterprising leadership in the organisation
  • Well-developed and implemented strategy
  • Alignment of the organisations with that strategy
  • An effective senior team
  • Adept professional relationship skills and influence throughout the organisation
  • Increased levels of revenue
  • Solved problems
  • Enhanced business results

What’s different about the support you provide?

It’s informed by a highly-developed expertise in human development and interaction combined with the knowledge and experience of an operational career. That combination makes a radical difference in the appropriate circumstances. It’s simply more powerful than the alternatives.

How do you charge for an engagement?

In whatever way works best for you. We can use an agreed day rate applied to hours recorded or use a retainer arrangement in which an agreed minimum amount of support is provided for a fixed monthly fee. If the scope of work is clear enough, we can also agree a fixed fee in advance. Generally, we invoice monthly for work done in the month.

Won’t you just tell us what we already know?

I have a comprehensive set of expertise in leadership and organisation development. It’s very unlikely you have all of that at your disposal already, especially because some of that expertise is original contributions to the field. Getting your organisation to talk to itself well is part of the service though.
