Be Heard Today!
Today Is #NationalBeHeardDay when SMEs and future Business Owners can openly shout about their Small Businesses! So, a Big Thank You to our SME Associates and Suppliers for all your support. And wishing our SME Business Coaching and pro bono clients every success as they battle the negative impacts of Brexit, Covid, the War on Ukraine, and the Cost of Living Crisis!
Also, to unashamedly honour the day, here’s a reminder of the services Natural Talent provides – and also what we don’t do!
Natural Talent is NOT a talent-spotting agency for singers/dancers/ice-skaters et al! Nor is Natural Talent a franchise, or a Recruitment Agency per se! Natural Talent is a small Coaching and Training Consultancy that often works in partnership and confidentially with very big clients, such as within the FTSE 100 in the UK and Fortune 500 in the US. We are based in Bristol in the UK and have been operating for almost 20 years. Natural Talent is renowned for our highly ethical values and for following best practice to identify natural talent and enable our clients to realize their true potential. Our work is in 3 main areas: Coaching, Training, and Talent Assessment, which all assist Talent Management and Succession Planning.
Personally, I provide Executive Coaching and Mentoring to CEOs and their senior management teams in most functions and industry sectors across the world in order to address key leadership and management issues. These include driving major transformation, leading change and strategy alignment; we also work on improving communication, teamworking, company culture, and hybrid working. Outputs include improved employee engagement, productivity, retention, and brand reputation.
During Coaching sessions, I provide clients with the most proven tools and techniques in order to resolve key issues, such as the need to be more strategic, inadequate delegation and empowerment, inefficient planning and organizing, high/low assertiveness levels, tough decision making, stress management, developing resilience, improving poor working relationships, and managing performance. All the Coaching interventions affect real and lasting behavioural and cultural change, creating swift, measurable high-quality results leading to significant improvement in individual, team and business performance.
I am known internationally for providing effective Face to Face and online 360 Feedback Reviews to assist executives in gaining real insights into their behaviours, leadership styles, and senior team dynamics. 360 Feedback Reviews followed by Executive Coaching achieve dramatic change and ROI is often in excess of 7,000%.
Other statistics speak for themselves: I have almost 12,000 hours of Coaching under my belt and am often called in to companies to sort out major issues or take over unsuccessful Coaching Programmes. Around 90% of my work originates from referrals. Client satisfaction levels for Executive Coaching are currently running at 100%. Change Management has scored 92%, overall effectiveness – 94%, and 96% for Client Relationship Management.
During Career Transition and Outplacement Coaching I work in partnership with HR teams or individuals, if they are affected by organizational restructures and are facing redeployment or redundancy, or they require Career Coaching to develop, upskill, and progress in their current role. I support clients in a positive way to make the transition into a new position, self-employment, or retirement. 97% of my individual clients have found a new role within 2 months. 94% of my clients have been promoted to senior positions following Career and Executive Coaching and Mentoring.
If you are looking to upskill your leaders and managers, then Natural Talent also provides bespoke high value Leadership Training, and Management Training which can be delivered in person or online in an interactive Coaching Training style to address the most common issues and swiftly upskill your teams. We also known for delivering effective and engaging team away days and offsites and impactful Group Coaching.
