mediate

Mediation is about resolving disputes.

facilit8™ has pioneered the use of mediation skills within organisations. fWe were the first in the UK to make mediation skills central to leadership training; to use mediation skills as part of large project management and to design in-house dispute resolution processes relevant for the whole business.

communicate

Communication is about influence - influencing your customers, your people, your regulators or your industry. It is equally about checking understanding, challenging assumptions and gathering information which will enable you to make appropriate adjustments to strategies and plans. Communication skills are essential for meaningful risk assessment

In order to do this consistently well, everyone needs to be clear about where they fit in the picture before they can see how they can best work with other people to create new opportunities.

innovate

Innovation is more often about using resources you already have in a different way. If you don’t know what you have you may be missing valuable opportunities for ‘home grown’ brilliance.

Our Resource Audit© is a cost effective way of identifying resources to meet your growth and development needs.

cultivate

Just like the good gardener, preparation of the 'ground' defines the quality of the 'growth'. For the same reasons, cultivating the environment for good communication defines the quality of problem solving and creative thinking when designing your stategy, plan or message.

Trust, respect, confidentiality and clarity are like soil, nutrients, water and air.

We have a number of approaches based on years of research and a profound understanding of people and what releases creativity.

navigate

Business leaders need exceptional skills to navigate the demands of regulation, legislation, corporate governance, risk management and to develop policy and strategy for sustainable business and stay sane.

Leadership is changing. Successful leadership is about moving From Hero to Host©, about developing the skills to manage important conversations, about encouraging your people to give you the information that you need rather than what they think you want and about securing commitment to see tough decisions through to successful conclusion.

facilitate

A truly facilitated meeting is about understanding people's strengths, drawing on the knowledge of the group, providing clarity to individual and team roles and responsibilities and allowing for contribution. That is not an agenda. It is a structure around which commitment and action can be cultivated and when you have these ingredients there is very little beyond the capacity of the group.

The outcome is commitment to appropriate and imaginative decisions and accelerated delivery of the benefits.

integrate

building a strong culture or communinty is about integrating all the skills and strengths of the people who work for you for their benefit and the benefit of the organisation. Building excellent networks, using challenging times to reveal hidden talents and knowledge and reducing costs and risks. These are all achievable through a blend of skills, good will, awareness, and appropriate processes that have people focused on the job and not overwhelmed with the paperwork.

We have several case studies to demonstrate this. Contact us for more details.
