The greatest asset of any organisation – no matter the size or specialist area – is their people. All unique individuals from diverse backgrounds. When it comes to team empowerment training, in my experience, the most transformative programmes are not generic ‘off the peg’ ones.
Designing a programme to meet an individual organisation’s desired results demands collaboration, curiosity, and honesty.
For over 20 years I’ve worked with organisations and individuals to devise and deliver unique solutions.
Communication, emotional intelligence, connection and inclusion are foundations to grow a thriving workplace and team. Underpinned by proactive mind health, wellbeing and workplace emotional safety. Add in the growing awareness of neurodiversity within the workplace, it’s now business, as well as human critical, attention is paid to these core areas.
As a manager, how do you engage with someone who is neurodivergent when you’re neurotypical – or vice versa? It can be easy to mistake behaviours as disruptive when they aren’t. Learning how to engage, connect and support all staff delivers success to all and reduces the risk of a challenge at an Employment Tribunal.
With personal experience of the invisibility some people feel through life’s curve balls, I know the journey of fear some of your employees will go through joining your business and even once onboard when changes occur such as promotion or restructuring.
Change is scary. Especially change we want. Making workplaces more safe and inclusive lessens the fear of change enabling all to thrive. Not just survive.
How we ‘show up’ really matters. It determines if our connection with others will be positive or negative.
My core values are integrity, honesty, empathy and inclusion. This enables me to connect and understand effectively. If I don’t believe I can help – I’ll tell you!
Your business and people are unique – shouldn’t your training be so too?
I work with my clients to understand the issues they are experiencing, the results they are looking to achieve before designing a solution with them that really fits. ‘A one size fits all’ approach doesn’t work especially in these times of financial constraint.
Some thoughts from others on my work:
“Jane has delivered mental health and wellbeing training to both staff and students. These are very sensitive audiences. I only entrust them to trainers I have faith in. The feedback I have received from Jane’s sessions has justified my faith. It is always very positive. It’s clear that Jane delivers training in an engagin and effective way. This ensure the content is both remembered and applied – a crucial outcome. I intend to book Jane as a trainer again and I have no hesitation in recommending her work to others” Personal view of client Paul Wilson, Staff Wellbeing Manager at Cardiff University.
“I had the pleasure of getting onto this program and working with Jane at Growing Talent. Since the whole job market has changed after Covid, many people struggle with finding themselves or finding their confidence for looking for a job. Growing Talent gives this confidence back to people, who are talented, keen and willing to work but maybe they are just not visible enough to employers. Instead of going through the same old recruitment process of sending CVs, trying to stand out from thousands of resumes, catching employers’ attention in 6 seconds (which often feels like a battle), at Growing Talent your resume is your personality, your charisma, energy and you have the opportunity to show & talk about yourself the way you want the employers to know about you. Great companies give you their time and attention in a fun event that can actually lead to your next amazing role. And the best thing is that Jane guides you through the whole process, making sure that you are prepared and perform at your best. This is such a unique experience that could benefit more companies and candidates – l wish more organisations would operate this way! Thanks to Growing Talent, many of us had” Fruszina, SPS UK & Ireland
