Helping your people build and develop vital workplace skills

There are certain workplace skills that separate great performers from good ones, and that anyone can master with the right development. Skills like great communication, resilience, and adapting to change are all in the toolkits of the best leaders and teams, and can equip them to help organisations overcome challenges, and improve performance.

Our award-nominated ‘human’ workplace skills workshops, programmes and courses combine a unique blend of human science and practical tools, delivered by expert facilitators, and supported by cutting-edge models and resources. From a half day workshop to a build your own programme approach, we have a range of courses to help you solve your challenges.

Developing your peoples’ necessary workplace skills is not an optional commitment

Simply put, your people are your most valuable assets. Empowering them to adapt and excel in their role is a vital yet time-consuming process that can be a real challenge to manage alone.

Furthermore, not providing adequate development could not only negatively impact your people on a personal level, but it could also affect your overall ability to navigate key strategic challenges.

Without specialist workplace skills development, you may find:

  • Your leaders lack the vital skills needed to get the best out of their teams
  • Your decision-makers don’t have the necessary influence to ‘steer the ship’
  • Your people lack the mindset, resilience, and communication skills needed to thrive in their role, long-term
  • Your organisation finds it hard to navigate times of change or adversity
  • Key talent leaves during challenging periods
  • Employee engagement levels drop

An investment in your people is an investment in your organisation

With NFP, you will benefit from workshops and programmes that contain practical insights, are outcome-driven, and backed by the latest tools and human science. We know your business, people, and goals are unique, which is why your support will be fully tailored to you and what your people need to get from the sessions.

Whatever your challenges and goals, we will work alongside you to fully understand you, your people, the problems you need to solve, and how we can work with you to address them.

NFP’s ‘human’ skills support is designed to:

  • Build resilient leadership, thinking, mindsets and behaviours
  • Develop new practical and sustainable skills
  • Help leaders understand how they can improve engagement, commitment, and contributions of their teams
  • Enable your people to visualise and move towards positive outcomes and behaviours
  • Build awareness of psychological and emotional reactions in oneself and others, developing emotional intelligence
  • Limit dips in engagement, productivity and performance
  • Retain key talent through challenging times

What we achieved was miraculous and we couldn't have done this without you.
Global HR Director, FTSE 100 travel company
This was a safe space in which to invest thoughts, feelings and emotions during a really challenging and difficult period of change. The facilitator was empathetic, and was able to recognise when to change track and when to give us time to reflect and look at ways to change our perspectives.

The workshop has certainly given me a new way of thinking and recognition of things I can’t change but can approach from a new and different perspective.

Head of Learning & Development, SAS
The VoicePrint tool gave me a useful common language to explore my habits with Jo, my leadership coach. We explored the impact of my typical communication style on my leadership, including the importance of not relying on a limited range of influencing methods.
