"We've moved from rivalry and antagonism to cooperation and a positive results orientation. To achieve that we needed to step back and understand what we were doing wrong and develop new habits to get it right. It's been hard work but it’s been more than worth it."
– Managing Director, European Media Conglomerate

Professional managers increasingly understand the importance of linking individual and group performance to the overall culture and climate of an organization.

As well as building awareness of organizational culture into our executive and team coaching, we also approach the subject directly through our organizational consultancy.

The Communicative Culture Audit is a comprehensive, quantitative and qualitative assessment of the coherence, clarity and collective focus of an organization's culture.

Areas typically assessed include everyday strategic awareness, managerial style, corporate identity, interdepartmental communication and the effectiveness of the working environment. We recommend pragmatic and effective initiatives for addressing the issues raised.

Mentoring
Fully utilizing the experience, knowledge and interpersonal support that exists within an organization can be particularly challenging. We advise on how to extend coaching skills throughout the organization and provide customized programmes to enable employees at every level to develop mutually rewarding mentoring relationships.

Off-Site Workshops
Off-site workshops, away days or internal conferences are often the ideal opportunity for group learning. We can organize the entire event or individual components. We also provide on-going workshops open to the whole organization on aspects of Communicative Leadership.

360º Feedback
We use a range of personality assessment instruments to advance the goals and performance of individuals and teams. ECD Insight also designs and delivers proprietary Emotional Intelligence-orientated programmes to give managers detailed, confidential multi-rater feedback.

Mergers & Acquisitions
We also provide thorough culture evaluations of organizations contemplating or subject to mergers and acquisitions. Our aim is to advise clients on achieving the right "fit" between people and companies.

Stress Management
Stress is a recurrent problem for senior managers and teams in today's high-pressure working environment. We provide practical, creative, effective solutions for coping with and reducing stress experienced by individuals and groups.
