The pandemic has shown us differently. But, in some instances, you can’t beat face to face and we don’t propose replacing it. Team sessions and leadership workshops are extremely important and we love running these types of sessions, but what we know from our experience is, no matter how powerful these sessions are, the engagement and goodwill that comes from them dissipates after 4-6 weeks. What we are offering here is to build on those sessions and create momentum and accelerate growth throughout the year. That’s why the EDGE is the perfect accompaniment to your team and leadership offsites (which we design and facilitate too, so get in touch!). Empirical evidence shows us that when we embed learning, practise new skills and offer continued support that’s when real behaviour change takes place.
No, it will be a minimum of 2 hours per month. You will see your team improving after the first 4 weeks: less hand holding for you and increased productivity from your people, will be among some of the positive changes you’ll see. The time they spend on The EDGE will be made back (and multiplied!) through their new learned efficiencies and focus.
