What we bring to your organisation

a trinity knot with the words Culture, Leadership and Systems in the three sections.

Market-leading?

Or just functioning?

At People Mastery, we believe that the greatest differentiator between a functioning business and a market-leading business is its people.

You may have the best product, a top-notch business plan and great strategy, but all of those can be derailed if your culture, your leadership capability and the systems you have in place to attract, retain and develop the best people are lacking.

As organisational development guru Peter Drucker famously said, 'Culture eats strategy for breakfast', and we couldn't agree more.

Leadership

  • ‘Are leaders born or made? This is a false dichotomy - leaders are neither born nor made. Leaders choose to be leaders.'

    - Stephen Covey

    What difference does great people leadership make?

    Imagine for a moment, the best leader you ever had.

    Now imagine an organisation that is FULL of effective people leaders, and what it could achieve.

    The best part is, it IS possible!

    Great leaders are made, not born, and great leadership is transformational for both your people and your business.

    We partner with you to develop skills and capabilities such as:

    • Learning how to lead

    • Understanding your own and other’s behavioural styles

    • Coaching and developing people

    • Building cohesive, high-performing teams

    • Managing change and transition

    • Engaging stakeholders

    • Effective communication and conflict resolution

    • Attracting and retaining the right people

Culture

  • 'Company culture is the continuous pursuit of building the best, most talented and happiest team we possibly can.'

    - Andrew Wilkinson

    We can't see culture - but we sure can feel it.

    To misquote that iconic Aussie movie, The Castle, it's 'the vibe of the place'. And it doesn't create itself: leaders, whether they are aware of it or not, determine 'the vibe' in their team or organisation.

    At its core, organisational culture is a combination of values and purpose.

    When you really nail these, your culture will have the power to inspire people - to bond them together in pursuit of a common goal, to create trust, passion and purpose and enable them to achieve more than they ever thought possible.

    We partner with you to:

    • identify your core organisational values

    • clarify your purpose and define your organisation’s vision and objectives

    • develop a robust and cohesive executive team

    • develop strategies and initiatives to roll out and embed new cultural norms in every aspect of your business

    Just like great leadership, you can choose the culture you wish to create, and with the right approach you can embark on that journey to transform your workplace with the full collaboration of your team.

Systems

  • 'Human systems give an organisation a structure for tying its operations, culture and management together, even when leaders aren't around to remind people.'

    - Patrick Lencioni

    When we say 'systems', we mean the frameworks of people-related processes that exist in and shape your workplace and the behaviour of the people in it.

    Systems that are integral to creating and embedding your ideal workplace culture, such as:

    • your recruitment and selection processes

    • onboarding

    • training and development

    • performance cycle

    These are the tools that your people leaders use to enable the cultural transformation that will in turn transform your business, and our straightforward, best-practice structures and processes are tailorable to your unique business needs.

Our Programs

Every program and workshop we run is tailored to your specific needs.

We can mix and match components from any of our programs, and will work with you to tailor the language, practical examples and case studies to align with your business and culture, and design individual and group activities that enable practical opportunities to apply new knowledge.

We also offer follow-up group or individual coaching sessions to support participants to embed new practices and maximise the benefits delivered to your business.
