lightbulb moment for someone who rarely takes time to question their style and interactions with others. We were gifted with that from our very first Executive Team session.” Jess Gallop, Director of People, Student Roost “Working with Paul from Westminster Associates has made a huge difference to the way our senior team operates. Going through the Insights model has helped us understand the way in which each of us works and identify the strengths and areas to improve in our team. Paul creates an open, safe environment for us to table discussion and come up with ways to support each other as a team. I would highly recommend Westminster Associates to other businesses, as like our business, it will help focus any team and create ways to work better together.” Mark Easdown, Head of HR and Finance, Wirral Youth Zone, The Hive If you’re a leader, you may be wondering how to ensure your people stay engaged as the business grows, or how to translate your organisation’s vision and values into something meaningful for everyone. If you run a team, you likely need to make sure your customers are looked after, your sales targets are met, and your team collaborates with other parts of the organisation. And if you’re an individual, you may love what you do but be ready to challenge yourself and grow in your role. If any of these sound familiar, we’d love to talk with you, because inspiring people to perform is what we do. Looking ahead, then, what’s in store for us for the rest of 2019? It typically gets a little quieter while people are on summer holiday and it’s almost impossible for managers to get their people together for a session. So that gives us time to catch our breath too. August means time in San Francisco and the chance to bring the UK and US sides of our business together in front of some of our clients there, and to get in a little R&R as well! September is full of team offsites as leaders reignite and refocus their teams for the last quarter of the year for some, or the start of a new academic year for others! We have the Wirral Life Awards to plan for and look forward to in October and November as well, and then some fun an enjoyable creative team development work towards the holiday season. Oh, and there’s business as usual, as well as the small matter of a Simply Come Dancing competition! So that’s 2019, and we look forward to sharing the rest of it with you all.
