There is usually a huge pool of knowledge, skills, ideas and potential solutions hidden in the minds of staff at all levels across organisations of all types and sizes.

 

The challenge is to draw out all those ideas for consideration, when everyone is usually so busy just trying to cope with the mountain of daily work and pressures.

 

Where do you find the time to step back from the daily grind, to put a group of diverse people together in a group workshop, and get them to put their collective intelligence and knowledge to work to address the organisation's issues and opportunities?

 

Can you afford NOT to take advantage of all that knowledge? What new opportunities is the organisation missing? What processes are inefficient, costing you time and money because no-one has the time to streamline them? What errors are being repeated because there is no time given to reflection and learning?

 

Using an independent, qualified and skilled facilitator gives you the chance to run focused group workshops to address any of the important issues or opportunities faced by the organisation.

 

Most organisations are looking for proven and validated group workshop models and experienced facilitators, to ensure that they are getting "best practice" approaches, tools and techniques, and the most cost-effective and productive outcomes.

 

The ProFocus approach is based on world-recognised models such as Ford's RAPID and 8-D problem-solving models, Six Sigma quality management system and the Action Learning model. While Action Learning has been developing for many years, it has emerged this decade as the key problem-solving and leadership development program for giant global corporations such as Boeing and GE, government agencies and not-for-profit organisations. Action Learning has the distinction of achieving two objectives whenever it is used: simultaneously solving problems and building individual and organisational learning.

 

 

While all ProFocus group workshops use proven models, we know that your organisation will have specific needs, and may have existing approaches that we must honour and incorporate. That is why ProFocus provides a flexible and tailored approach to meet your needs.
