Leadership and Confidence

How do I improve leadership in my teams and within the organisation?
What motivates workers?
Which strategic internal choices lead, objectively, to better external results?

As a centre of expertise, we observe leadership from various angles: from the perspective of workers and teams as well as in the light of strategic choices for the purpose of making the organisation optimally respond to developments going on in their environment and in the market.


Confidence

Confidence in leadership within an organisation is vital for team productivity. Effective leadership leads to improved performance, partly by strengthening the coherence within teams and within the organisation itself. It improves worker involvement with the organisation and ensures that they consider the organisation's expectations legitimate. Using various tools which have been developed specifically for measuring confidence in leadership, we research how well the basic elements required to create confidence have been developed in your organisation and where any bottlenecks can be found.

Leadership

Strategic leaders in organisational structures - CEOs for instance - must be able to direct the changes in their organisation which are connected with the demands made by the market and by society in a clear, timely and well-substantiated manner. We apply proven methods to connect internal management choices, external circumstances and economic effects. We give you advice about what works and what doesn't. For more information:

Employee surveys

Employee surveys (MBO/MTA) indicate employee satisfaction and involvement using a benchmark grade. The question remains, though, how these valuations are formed. We have developed a method which can establish the source of the scores and find out which scores are really relevant for the organisation. For more information:
