About us
We are a team of experienced business psychologists and leadership experts helping organisations with some of their most difficult people and leadership challenges. We help clients ensure that their leadership strategy aligns with their business strategy, so that they have the leaders they need to thrive, and we work with individual leaders to help them drive sustainable transformation and to be at their best in the new world of work.
Working with global organisations across a wide range of industries, we apply expertise in leadership, assessment, development and OD to support the transformation of individual leaders and organisations.
Our purpose
We believe in the hugely important role that leaders play and, in turn, how important it is to have good, skilled leaders. We recognise the impact that leaders have, good and bad – on their people, on organisations, on society.
We also recognise the challenges that leaders face – the demands as leaders take on more senior and complex roles, the constantly changing context presented by the future of work, economic unpredictability, hybrid working and a myriad of other factors.
We help leaders to bring their most skilled selves to work so that they can have a positive impact on the people around them.
We help organisations to improve the quality of their leadership. We take a system-focused approach to help our clients build a leadership group who are stronger, better and have a more sustained positive impact on the business and on the world around them.
We believe that if we want to have a lasting impact on people, organisations and society, then leadership is a great place to start.
We believe
Data is key
Good data and insights drive better leadership development, personal growth and organisational decision-making about people, talent, culture and leadership.
Psychology is at the heart of change
Applying the science of psychology to leadership, culture and people performance provides a unique and informed perspective.
Experience matters
Clients want a partner who truly ‘knows their stuff’ – expertise and understanding of client context, delivered with the right balance of challenge and support.
Our approach
DEFINE
A really clear articulation of what you’re trying to achieve is critical. Whether it’s the intended outcomes of a leadership development event, a clear definition of what leadership for the future looks like or an agreed set of objectives for a coaching engagement, we help you to be clear about where you’re heading and how to measure progress.
ASSESS
Development and progress is hard if you don’t know what you’re starting with. It’s difficult to make choices about where to focus without good data. We help you to assess your leaders, systems and development interventions so that you can focus effort in the areas where you’ll get greatest yield.
DEVELOP
In a world where complexity is the norm, we keep things simple to help clients apply insights and get to impact more quickly. We work with individual leaders to help them develop the skills that matter. We help teams to become more purposeful, efficient and effective. We support HR clients and businesses to spot talented leaders early, get them ready more quickly, build robust succession pipelines for critical senior roles and create shifts in culture to elevate performance.

Scientific rigour
Drawing on the science of psychology and research-driven approaches in all our work, we use diagnostic data to focus on the things that will make a difference in leadership.
2.
Elegant simplicity
We make complex concepts easy to understand and apply. We help leaders to strip out the noise to focus on what matters.

Co-creation
We work together with our clients to build solutions – we listen to understand your context and meet you where you are. Our work with individual leaders is done with them, not to them.
5.
Quality and excellence
We deliver consistently high-quality client experiences with proven business impact.
