Partnership with PurposeTM
This is a selection of options you can choose from to create a package of activity to help your organisation or team manage change and make decisions effectively and creatively.
It is based on the principle that value-led change is the most effective and lasting change. So we spend time with participants exploring where their core values are expressed and where they match with your organisations core values. This is backed up by enjoyable practical workshops and training to develop these core areas as appropriate to your team's needs:
- Vision into action
- Communication
- Motivation for success
- Coaching Skills
- Creativity & innovation
- Generating Ideas
- Team Building
- Effective Management of Change
- Managing People
- Leadership Development
All our work is built around interesting and challenging practical experiences underpinned by a solid understanding of the principles of success.
We are certified in the use of the PeopleScanTM Psychometric Software and the Achieving Communication Excellence Software. We often use these to help our clients identify the kind of interventions that would have maximum effect in their organisations.
Partnership with PurposeTM is about just that - a partnership between you and creativity@work. A partnership where we structure what we do to support you to achieve the success you want.
Creative Integral Leadership
This programme provides an opportunity for people in business; regeneration; local government; education and training; faith groups and the voluntary and community sectors to come together to explore some cutting edge approaches to natural systems of leadership that can be applied to change and development in organisations and communities.
It is clear that the old approaches to Leadership are redundant in the fast-changing world in which we live and do business. It is also clear that the new approaches we need to take mean making connections in a way we have never had to before. These connections lead us to an integrated, holistic approach both to what we do as individual leaders and the way we need to operate as organisations to develop the skills needed for our future success.
This programme has been developed as a result of work with a variety of people in different leadership roles over the last three years. It will lead you through practical exercises exploring:
- Successful change
- Motivation (for yourself and the people you work with)
- Communication that is heard!
- The inner space of leadership
- The leader as coach
- Leadership and Service
- How to generate new ideas that work
- Understanding the Spiral - Integral Leadership
We will work with you to develop a programme of activity to suit your particular needs and audiences.
