Attract and retain the best talent in a highly competitive market

As we all know it has been a tough couple of years due to the pandemic and whilst some companies and people have thrived, others have struggled to adapt and are now experiencing a crisis of confidence substantially affecting mental health. Whilst there are no magic wands there is a solution that you can provide, the ability to actually listen not just hear what you / your staff /teams are actually saying.

Listening takes time, it is an active engagement, you have to make sense of the words, it needs attention, and, in most cases, there will be some form of an emotional response. Hearing is passive, we are aware that some one is speaking but our mind is not always engaging and maybe wandering off to another situation, it is more of a perception of noise rather like having white noise on in the background whilst we are working, studying, or just doing chores.

Now we all know that time is money and so sometimes it is hard to find the time to listen, so we switch into hear mode. Completely missing the message being delivered. This feeds the lack of confidence of an individual, sow discontent and can and will have an impact on performance.

I have a cost-effective solution that will I believe improve the mental health of your staff, relieve the stress of Managers/ Team leaders but will also be an additional perk to recruit talent. Remember happy staff produce better results.

I deliver career coaching to all levels of staff from the newest recruit to Director and CEO level. Having had an exemplary career in recruitment, working at all levels from consultant to Director for some of the world’s leading recruitment names, through to Executive career transitioning and out -placement services for the most well-known brands in that arena. Building and developing teams, delivering career advice, guidance and training as well as Coaching and Mentoring. I have gained a post graduate diploma in organisational and behavioural psychology as well as membership of the Association for Coaching.

I deliver contract or ad-hoc coaching; career, transitioning, out-placement etc as and when required. Alternatively, I can be hired for a set number of sessions per month/year.
