Invest in people and they will do amazing things

 

Energized teams deliver more than you—or they—ever thought possible.    

When you focus on developing people's strengths, teams exceed expectations. And that matters. Because your people are your brand. They are the experience every customer has, and they make or break your company's reputation. Every day.

As talent management executives, we've seen the impact of strengths-based strategies.  Gallup research shows that building and sustaining a strengths-based culture can increase employee engagement by more than 20%. And that translates up to:

23% increased profits
17% increased sales
7% higher customer metrics
70% lower attrition

People focused on their strengths are 6 times as likely to be engaged in their jobs and more than 3 times as likely to report having an excellent quality of life. 

As coaches, we've seen energy and ideas skyrocket when people feel leaders are invested in their success. And, we know that nothing cements that shift faster than playing to people's strengths. It lights a fire in leaders and teams that's contagious and fuels company growth. 

That's why, for the past 25 years, we've taken a strengths-based approach to leader coaching, on-the-job learning and talent strategies.

 

 
 
 

 

What they’re saying

Mary and Dawn convinced a small group of line executives that a strengths-based approach to talent programs could increase employee engagement and, in turn, improve business results. Working closely with these executives, they proved the power of a strengths-based approach - engagement rose significantly more than in other organizations and key business indicators improved. After achieving these results and validating them with sound research, the entire organization enthusiastically moved to a strengths-based talent strategy and experienced similar results.

The Advice and guidance Mary and Dawn have given me on talent development and optimal organizational structure has been invaluable. Implementing their recommendations has resulted in more engaged team members, which of course has driven improved results and a stronger more successful organization. They are the best coaches I have had the opportunity to work with in my 30+ year career in Financial Services.
