Do you, your colleagues and your teams
know why your organisation exists and
why it is so important?
Are you, your colleagues and your
teams motivated by a higher sense of
organisational purpose?
Whatever an organisation’s strategy it is the people that
do the work that make the difference between success
and failure. People are not motivated making profit for
shareholders - they are motivated by meaningful work
that benefits others and gives them a sense of fulfilment.
We can work together to create a shared clarity of your
organisation’s purpose.
Clarity of Purpose…

We can work together to create a shared
understanding of the future that enables meaning
and motivates the right actions from people

Disciplined Focus…

You’ve got to eat
while you dream.
You’ve got to deliver
on short-range
commitments,
while you develop a
long-range strategy
and vision and
implement it. The
success of doing
both. Walking and
chewing gum if you
will. Getting it done
in the short-range,
and delivering a
long-range plan,
and executing on
that

MAD with Engagement
… Makes A Difference
A staggering
87% of employees
worldwide are
not engaged at
work. The world
has a crisis of
engagement -
one with serious
and potentially
long-lasting
repercussions
for the global
economy.

Does your team have 100% trust?
Do you experience healthy conflict?
Are you a team that works together
efficiently to make superior decisions?
Even the best teams need help to maintain their
effectiveness over time – particularly in times of change.
We can work together to ensure your teams know what
good looks like and have the right team behaviours, skills
and processes to achieve their team potential.
Leadership teams that keep
developing… Makes A Difference
Not finance.
Not strategy.
Not technology.
It is teamwork
that remains
the ultimate
competitive
advantage, both
because it is so
powerful and so
rare

Claire has been central in helping our Executive team in its development of a
new business strategy which included improving the working of the team itself.
Through the process and afterwards she has shown an excellent technical ability
being able to adapt the techniques used to ensure it is bespoke and thus fit for our
purposes. I have also been impressed by her personal integrity and Claire is one
of those rare people who practices what they preach. She is also passionate about
helping the client deliver success and has repeatedly demonstrated that she will go
the extra mile in her own time to help.

Working with ‘Leaders are MAD’ has definitely been a great experience. Claire
has a knack for getting to the heart of the matter. She has a constructively direct,
intuitive approach that really helps teams face the challenges before them and then
to navigate an appropriate strategic direction. I have had the pleasure of working
with Claire both in a personal capacity as well as part of the senior leadership team.
In both scenarios I have found her to be genuine and appropriately challenging.
Claire has enabled me to realise where my motivation lies and has helped shine
a light on the path to realise that ambition. The difference Claire has made to the
Leadership team I am part of is to help us identify how we can get the best from our
team engagement, personally and collectively. She has provided framework and
impetus to develop, shape and change as we build to an exciting future.
