People & Culture Development

Defining the right People and Culture processes for your business is the foundation of who you are and the success you want to achieve. Creating the right environments drives business growth and competitive advantage. Committing to your values sends a clear message that you care about your people and creates a sense of belonging. This helps you retain the people you want to but, importantly, ensures that your organisation has the skills it needs in the future.

Areas involved in good people development cover:

• Understanding the needs of your organisation and team

• Developing the right people strategies

• Establishing and embedding your Vision, Mission and Values

• Engagement Surveys to review and monitor progress

• Leadership development

• Training and career development

• Coaching and mentoring your people

Talent Acquisition

Poor appointments can be time-consuming and costly. When a business appoints people with the right knowledge and skills who share its values and beliefs, those appointees are productive sooner, work harder and stay longer. Selecting the right people and getting them in post quickly isn’t just a matter of luck.

I specialise in:

• Analysing jobs to identify the attributes and competencies of effective employees

• Reducing your hiring costs

• Improving your employee brand

• Developing appropriate selection tools and techniques to measure personality traits and cultural fit.

• Helping with employee onboarding to help ensure recruits are integrated and effective in the shortest possible time.

Performance management

Performance management is a continuous process which involves making sure that the performance of employees contributes to the goals of their teams and the business. A lack of Performance Management can lead to poor morale, demotivated employees, reduced productivity, and increased absence and turnover.
