CASE STUDIES

Management Empowerment

The brief

Our client has a fantastic history of harnessing talent and promoting internally, however, many of their managers had not received any formal management or leadership training. We were asked to work with The Shakespeare Birthplace Trust to design a management training programme for 33 of their employees.

The solution

We designed the Management Empowerment Programme based around ILM level 3 qualification with additional modules specific to the Trust’s organisation. The course comprised of 9 modules of which two were compulsory and three were selected by the delegates from a choice of 7 areas. This flexible approach allowed the delegates to select areas of best fit for their own development and job role.

The results

All delegates passed and received their certificates in Autumn 2015. The second programme for new delegates begins in February 2016.

“We have already seen real benefits associated with the training not least a significant improvement in cross departmental working as people met new colleagues through their training.”   Becky Cund, Head of HR.

What our clients think...

"It's me who wants to thank you. You made this programme very interesting with your personal feeling and approach."

Service engineer

"I just wanted to say thank you so much for all your help with this ILM 3. All your feedback and guidance has really helped me gain confidence, although a lot of people think I have it already, you pulled it out of me (in a good way) and help me overcome it as well as fears! I feel stronger after doing this course and I have gained much more than just the qualification thanks to you."

"I have been amazed at the invigoration of my managers due to this programme. (ILM Level 5)."

"Need for Achievement have provided a wide range of training programmes to Morgan Advanced Materials for several years now. They have always been delivered to a very high standard and the feedback from all delegates has always been very positive especially regarding the style and the content that is delivered. The training provided by Need for Achievement is very valuable in that all of the delegates have been able to apply what they learnt to real business challenges and as a result people feel more confident, more empowered and as a result productivity and results show the right trends. I would recommend them without question."

Rob Park, General Manager
Morgan Advanced Materials

"I have worked with Need for Achievement for a few years now and when I joined the Shakespeare Birthplace Trust (SBT) last year I identified the need for some training for our supervisors and middle managers. The SBT has a fantastic history of promoting internally, however, what this meant was that many of our managers had never received any management or leadership training. With Need for Achievement's help we designed the Management Empowerment Programme based around ILM level 3 qualification and additional modules specific to our business. We have already seen real benefits associated with the training not least a significant improvement in cross departmental working as people met new colleagues through their training. The difference with Need for Achievement is the additional personal touches and support that you receive that are real value add."

"Need for Achievement are an integral part of our work to develop our people at Elekta. They help contribute to building a stronger performance culture across our organisation. We demand high standards of delivery and Need for Achievement have never let us down. They have the highest levels of integrity and ethics and we have built real trust them as a long term partner."

Cameron Conneely, Director, Global Learning & Development
Elekta

"Thank you so much for all the training and support over the past 2 years, I can honestly say I use it every day and can see how the models work. It's been fascinating to watch the development of my cell leaders. Dan Pink was right - giving people autonomy, purpose and mastery works! I gave them specific products that they have to track and sort the issues out for, they take it on the chin if their products run late, they get the blame, but also the recognition when they succeed, it's amazing they are working sooo much harder yet are visibly so much happier. It's pretty hilarious hearing their fighting talk in the morning of how they will hit their targets!"

Graduate
Morgan Advanced Materials

"Need for Achievement has empowered me to think outside the box on subjects such as team dynamic, perception and self-reflection. I feel I have enhanced my ability to be an effective manager as a direct result of these coaching sessions."

Coachee
The White Company

"I wanted to say thank you for the very insightful, useful and helpful training course last Monday. I took a lot away with me and have been putting it into practice already. It is easy to forget about bringing the teams along when we are as busy as we get during the summer, but this is just the time we are able to test their mettle, offer them opportunities to stretch their wings etc."
