ASK improves workplace performance through:
- Organisational Development – facilitating organisational reflection, system improvement, self analysis and behavioural change.
- Management and Leadership Development – designing and implementing customised high impact personal development programmes for managers and leaders.
- Executive Coaching – helping individuals to identify their goals, access all of their gifts, acquire and practise new skills and fulfil their potential.
Since 1994, our high impact learning interventions have been creating value for organisations across the world. (Our name was originally derived from an acronym - Attitudes, Skills and Knowledge - that defined our initial focus.) Since 2004, we have combined these with the very best practice in transfer and application to ensure new learning and behaviours are not merely acquired, but become embedded within individuals’ and organisations’ daily practices.
We are OD specialists, Executive Coaches and Learning and Development behaviouralists rather than educators. Business Schools and universities typically focus their efforts on providing learners with the knowledge that they need to be effective in their function or profession.
By contrast, we help learners to acquire, practise and master the managerial and leadership skills that enable them to be more effective in their roles. Set in the context of a rigorous approach to transfer and application, our approach to event design recognises durability of habitual patterns of behaviour and the personal risks associated with trying to overturn them.
Our solutions derive from our competence in complementary fields that include:
- Diagnosis – Competence Framework Development, 360 Degree Feedback, Psychometric Analysis and Profiling
- Skills Development – Programme Design, Workshop Delivery, Experiential Learning, Coaching, Facilitation, Action Learning Sets, Business Simulations and Work-based Projects
- Transfer and Application - Executive Coaching, ASK Elephant® follow-through tool, Line Manager engagement, continuom, bottom line business evaluation and Return on Investment (ROI) calculations
- Organisational Development - small group facilitation, team development, change management, 'top team' and Board facilitation
- Resource Development – Branding, Internal Marketing, Flexible Learning Programmes, Website and Intranet Development, Materials Development.
