Solutions

We supply free consultations, techniques and management insights on the website & newsletter. We fund the creation of this content with practical people management solutions, training courses, assessments and practical coaching.

Accessibility & Cost

We witnessed how helpful our techniques are but we wanted to make them available more broadly. To this end we are building this website to make the techniques more widely available at an accessible price on-line learning.

But we also know that coaches play an important role in improving understanding and outcomes. So we offer live coaching solutions

Is this Material for You? 

• Are you an over worked manager?
• Do you have an employee performance problem?
• Do you want to improve the quality of your employees work?
• Does managing employees take up a lot of your time?
• Do you want to progress your career?
• Do you want a better working relationship with your manager?
• Are you a relatively inexperienced manager?

If you experience any of the above then we can help. If you are not willing to try a new technique then this is not suitable for you. Less experienced managers will have more to gain than experienced managers. But even experienced managers can gain from learning more effective and efficient techniques.

Where to Start

Boss Camp is essential for new managers and helpful to experienced managers. After a lot of learning, we have restructured our material and put what managers need to know into Boss Camp. This is the best place to start.

In addition to these core skills there are some skills that are important to having a solid management foundation, these are:

• Performance Improvement Through Effective Hiring;
• Being Effective with Different Types of People Through DISC;
• Running Effective Meetings - Meetings that Matter;
• Managing Upwards and Building a Good Relationship With Your Boss.

Legal / Warning / Guarantee

The techniques are tested in practice to work with a wide range of people in different and difficult situations.

But we are dealing with people who are highly variable and can be sensitive. Therefore there is always the risk that something can go materially wrong. By materially wrong we mean the sort of thing like staff having a nervous breakdown or resigning.  Although we promise you this is extremely rare. For this to happen there will probably be some sort of pre-existing condition. We know from experience that a lot more will go right than wrong but there are always exceptional cases.

So we would like to say that you should tread carefully with people, pay due care to the advice - we have taken every effort to make sure it is good advice but we can't be held responsible if something does go materially wrong.

It is a fundamental value of ours that these techniques should be applied with the best of intentions. These techniques are very powerful and they can be used for persuasion or to achieve nefarious objectives but this is not the purpose of them. Nothing we recommend is ever an excuse to do something horrible to another human being or to behave unethically.

To be clear a manager may be required to do unpleasant things such as firing staff. This is a responsibility of the job that comes with the title. Whilst it will not be a pleasant experience for any of the parties involved this does not mean that you cannot be "nice" in the way you go about your responsibility. As in many things in life there is a wrong way and a right way to go about it. Our full terms and conditions are available on request and your use of this website, emails, training courses, tools, techniques etc. are all subject to the standard terms and conditions. If you have taken due care in the application of our material and have had an unsatisfactory outcome, please email us with details and we will refund you any monies paid to us.
