Executive Coaching

One to one executive coaching focuses on unlocking an individual’s potential to maximise performance; getting people from where they are now, to where they want to be. At Persuasion, the focus is on helping the client to manage how they learn from their experience. The role of the coach is to be a Thinking Partner, who supports the client to do their best thinking about what matters most. The Persuasion coaching process is grounded in organisational learning models and draws on key concepts in business; occupational psychology and recent developments in neuroscience. We offer customised coaching programmes, built entirely around clients’ needs; preferences and learning styles.

Customised Organisational Coaching Programmes

Persuasion also works with organisational buyers and sponsors of coaching to design coaching solutions for organisations. We advise on how to build a coaching culture and we partner organisations in defining and implementing customised solutions to meet the specific needs of different cohorts across the organisation including, for example, high potential employees; women leaders and professionals; specialist contributors and graduate recruits. We have also developed mentor programmes for high potential employees.

Team Development

Team development interventions are a wonderful way to build collaborative focus for learning, change or development in a way that is energising and enjoyable. The support of an external coach/facilitator helps teams to learn about issues and problems from a new perspective. With external support, teams can be facilitated to address core issues in a constructive way, exploring opportunities for the team and learning through activities and facilitated dialogue.

Leadership Development

Developing current and future leaders’ competencies is a vital ingredient of business success. At Persuasion, we have a track record of working with our clients to design customised leadership development programmes to reflect the commercial and strategic considerations of the organisation as well as the specific needs of employees. Our leadership development programmes incorporate the use of 360 feedback tools; psychometric profiling and coaching as appropriate. We also advise on the design of assessment and development centres and on 360 feedback interventions.

Stakeholder Consultation

Many of our consulting assignments start out with a detailed and structured stakeholder consultation process. The purpose is to provide original insights into how an organisation is experienced and perceived across its stakeholder map. At Persuasion, we are skilled in leveraging detailed research from customers, internal stakeholders and other relevant stakeholders to support organisations in making effective strategic decisions. We support boards and leadership teams to gain and leverage powerful insights into the strategic position of an organisation and to define the way forward.

Group Faciliatation

Facilitation is an intervention that can be very effective in supporting a group to think through an issue or to create plans and or make decisions. At Persuasion, we are experienced in working with a range of audiences and groups ranging from senior business leaders to people from marginalised and socially disadvantaged groups. We have worked successfully with people from all age ranges and social groups. We use our facilitation skills to design customised away days and think ins for boards; management teams and stakeholder groups.

Organisational Consulting

We’ve worked up a strong portfolio of specific interventions, designed to support our clients in dealing with specific organisational issues – in relation to managing learning and delivering behaviour change. We enjoy working with leaders to develop solutions that are experienced positively by the people involved as well as delivering the strategic agenda. We are often asked to review organisational cultures; systems and processes; helping to re-align them to strategy and organisation needs. Assignments in this area include re-shaping key systems such as performance management; internal communication; team structures and roles and organisational decision making.

Executive Assessment

We support clients in making good decisions in relation to senior appointments. Our Executive Assessment process uses leading international best practice profiling tools and provides an in depth, independent assessment of candidates’ abilities and potential in relation to the requirements of a senior role. We also partner with clients in custom designing and managing selection processes from graduate to senior level.

Assessment and Development Centres

We are experienced in designing and managing assessment and development centres, where participants engage in a range of job or competency related exercises and are given the opportunity to demonstrate their competencies. Depending on the focus, candidates are assessed for suitability or provided with detailed development feedback.

Strategy Facilitation

Using a knowledgeable and skilled facilitator brings sharp focus to the key strategic issues facing the organisation. We support boards and teams with setting and exploring the strategic agenda through a structured strategy development process. Our role is to bring structure and creativity to the strategy development process, with a view to defining a positive and realistic vision for the future that recognises key organisational goals and that can energise and motivate people.

Career Development Coaching

More than ever before, careers are dynamic and evolving and it is important to reflect on the bigger picture and to reassess skills; values and motivations on regular basis. Career coaching supports individuals in making significant and informed decisions by working through a structured methodology. Using self-awareness as a compass, Persuasion career coaching is person centered and reflects the practical considerations that shape individuals’ lives and careers. Persuasion’s Career Transformer Programme is specifically designed to support individuals in defining or refining overall career goals and direction – aligned to life stage and career experience. The programme’s methodologies are adapted to each specific client’s circumstances.
