ADEPT BUSINESS PSYCHOLOGY

WHAT WE DO

Better leadership means better organisations

We are a team of business psychologists. We assess the characteristics, behaviour, style and impact of leaders to offer solutions-focused but personalised support. Leadership is about people working together with a clear purpose, sense of direction and alignment. We help individuals learn what their role as leaders can and should be and how they can develop their leadership.

 

 Leadership Development and Coaching

We work with leaders on a personal level through tailored development and coaching to enhance their self-awareness, talents and strengths and to shine a light on key areas for development. Leadership is always personal and the way people respond reflects their personality, values and goals. We help people to be transformational.

How we help leaders thrive:

We use a practical ‘toolkit’ of different approaches and techniques, underpinned by psychology, to help leaders see what they do well, how they can learn to be even better and how to work with people different to them.  We use best in class leadership assessment to help people understand their current behaviour, impact and scope for change. 

We can support you through:

  • Leadership and executive coaching

  • Developmental leadership assessments

  • 360 degree feedback

  • Psychometrics for leadership insights

 

 ASSESSMENT AND SELECTION

We work with organisations to use best in class psychometric tests and tailored assessment exercises to offer innovative solutions for high quality selection and assessment of leaders. We contribute to the challenging process of finding the right  person to fill vacancies by helping your organisation put in place a bespoke, professional and effective selection and assessment process which adds value to your selection decisions.

How we help organisations thrive:

Organisational success depends on predicting how well people will fit into jobs, specialist roles, teams, organisations and cultures. It has been proven that those organisations able to identify and nurture talent gain significant competitive advantage through increased productivity, greater job satisfaction,  improved employee engagement and reduced turnover.

Our bespoke assessment methods, combined with industry best practice psychometric tests, provide a robust, reliable, fair and cost-effective way of identifying potential, capability and future job performance. We can provide you with the design of in-depth psychological assessments, interviews and exercises.

We support you with:

  • A bespoke, innovative service that matches the needs of the job and organisation

  • Depth of insight into candidates’ potential, strengths and concerns

  • Quality feedback to candidates and the organisation

  • Confidentiality and sensitivity 

TEAMS

We work with leaders to help them collaborate to create agile, connected and resilient teams that work well together as a unit. We help develop shared understanding of the team’s talents, strengths and potential blindspots. We support teams to be high-performing by recognising and harnessing diverse talents, creating a shared vision and sense of purpose and bringing team dynamics to the surface to develop trust.  We go deeper to help uncover the foundations for success.

How we help teams thrive:

Built on a firm foundation of psychological techniques and approaches, we build strong alignment and commitment to business priorities and imperatives. We create a future focus to sustain and grow the business. We help executives and team members identify key challenges and focus on critical issues for the future. We work with you to help you understand, appreciate and accommodate the different styles and strengths that exist within the team. Our focus is on the business benefits that come from diversity within the team. 

Our approach enables teams to resolve business and personal issues, maximise their strengths as a team and improve effectiveness. This ensures that the team expends its energy in driving the business forward positively, with renewed vigour and focus, in the agreed direction with a clear vision and sense of purpose.

We offer a range of team psychometric tools to help a team assess their style and use these insights to design team development and coaching sessions, with the addition of 360 feedback if relevant.
