OVERVIEWWHY WE'RE DIFFERENTOUR TEAMCLIENTS
Back to Our TeamJoy Ferguson

My passion is to enable Leaders and Teams to excel at work, helping companies make major breakthroughs in achieving change and the powerful resolution of issues. I use my extensive consultancy, facilitation, coaching and training skills, combined with an understanding of the dynamics and psychology of the business world to enable key individuals and groups to extend their capability, remove obstacles and unleash potential for organisational and personal success.

I work to:

  • Provide clarity, focus and direction, driving strategic thought
  • Establish outcomes and a ‘road-map’ for achievement
  • Explore creative and practical ideas to achieve change, widening options
  • Deepen understanding of significant thinking patterns
  • Give honest, direct feedback
  • Confront constructively, challenging limiting beliefs
  • Offer new perspectives, strengthening ‘enablers’ to success
  • Free up mind-sets, enabling adjustment to different contexts
  • Galvanise and support action
  • Increase resilience and unleash fresh vigour

Value-Add from Typical Assignments Includes:

  • Enabling key-players to embrace change and engage those around them to achieve despite volatile circumstances
  • Team development to attain peak performance
  • Conflict resolution leading to increased collaboration and productivity
  • Breakthrough in Leaders mind-set so they get more from others
  • Advancing company culture, increased motivation, competency, co-operation, raised standards
  • Business Strategy development and implementation (content, process and engaging hearts and minds)
  • Increased levels of buy-in from already busy staff, harmonising relationships and improving ability to deliver
  • Galvanising groups to identify and commit to improvement actions
  • Improving the personal effectiveness and leverage of managers, increased personal impact, power and influence
  • Increasing inner confidence and energy, managing stress to achieve balance
  • Surviving and learning from crisis, sustaining personal satisfaction

To achieve client outcomes I use a mix of consultancy meetings, analysis, advice, training workshops and facilitation of key events (e.g. off-site meetings, focus groups, team meetings, conferences etc). In addition I frequently coach, individually, key managers on a wide range of issues resulting in organisational and personal success.

Style and Approach
One of my founding beliefs is that people have enormous potential. My style is collaborative, pragmatic and challenging. I use my extensive business acumen and coaching expertise, together with my awareness of emotional intelligence, to help clients ‘raise the bar’. The approach I take with each client is tailored for them, my aim being to exceed expectations. I draw from ‘leading-edge’ thinking plus a wide range of established theory from the fields of NLP, Psychology and Management to develop practices that simply work.

Background
My continuing success, often working at senior levels (and including multi-cultural contexts) spans over 15 years in diverse environments ranging from corporates through to small businesses, including finance, telecoms, retail, internet based business, IT, pharmaceutical, electronics, publishing and marketing. Clients span multi-nationals through to SME’s. I bring to my assignments an extensive background as a manager and consultant in blue-chip environments and a unique blend of relevant expertise.
