Professional and Personal Development

We expect our new consultants to be extremely interested in learning our methodology and how to put it into practice. Our goal is to transform each new consultant into a project manager in three years and, in order to do so, we utilize a combination of formal training in small groups, one to one coaching, and practical experience. In order to reach managerial level within three years, the consultant has to understand how to apply our methodology to any kind of industry or process. To achieve this the consultant works in a variety of different industries and processes during the three-year period and as the consultant demonstrates increased understanding and acquisition of the required skills, we assign him or her greater responsibility.
 
In each project there is a full-time manager and a part-time director. These two people ensure that every consultant receives the training, knowledge, tools, and supervision required to succeed. Although learning and understanding the technical side of applying our methodology is very important, the tactical side is of even greater importance. Our business consists of creating change for our clients, not only in the company's structures and processes, but also in its management systems and day-to-day working.
 
The consultant learns how to handle this key aspect in order to successfully overcome the natural resistance to change and involve the client's employees in the change process. These are three years of intense learning and growth. At the end, successful consultants are invited to become project managers and lead their own groups of consultants.
During these three years every consultant is evaluated every three months by his or her manager and director. The evaluation recognises and measures the consultant's skills and progress in learning our methodology, and highlights the knowledge and skills that need more attention. The manager then agrees a strategy for correcting this. At the same time each consultant is also evaluated on the specific results they generate in their area of responsibility, both in diagnostics and projects. Together these evaluations are the criteria for promoting consultants up through the organisation. These are three years of intense learning and growth. At the end successful consultants are invited to become project managers and lead their own groups of consultants.
