Because of its flexible structure New Paradigm Consulting is able to offer a range of services, tailored to your needs. Below are some of the broad areas in which we have a lot of experience. Please contact us if you would like more information.
Culture change
Organisation culture is the key to much that happens (or does not happen) in a business or other organisation. Culture pervades all the relationships which underpin the organisation and influences all its decisions. We use a range of approaches - from questionnaires to more expressive means - to diagnose and make explicit the current culture. We then offer tailored approaches to help organisations work with their current culture to change it appropriately.
Organisation consultancy
- We offer innovative approaches to organisation change, drawing on the latest findings from the study of complex living systems. Whether we are dealing with organisational culture, or with the relations between different parts of an organisation, or with the development of a team, we always try to focus on the whole organisation and the impact of changes in one area on the functioning of other areas.
- Team Development
- Effective team working is increasingly important for flexible and adaptive organisations. But becoming a high performance team is not easy and may not be necessary. We work with organisations to help them discover the appropriate level of team working for the tasks required. Then we offer tailored approaches which will help them achieve their goals.
- Coaching
- We have found that one-to-one coaching and mentoring can be extraordinarily effective in helping developing leaders to blossom and thrive. Our experience as coaches is that it can be an essential component of an effective change initiative.
- Planning
- Planning is still important in the new paradigm but the emphasis is on learning to adapt rather than predicting the future. Strategic planning, business planning, marketing planning: all are useful to the development of effective organisational life. They do not have to be difficult, complicated or boring! We offer creative and fun approaches to planning which help to make them real and relevant in the life of the organisation. We can use all the jargon if you want, but our experience is that most organisations are happier using simple language and approaches. The results are at least as good!
- Facilitation
- The quality of relationships in organisations is crucial. Facilitation can help make the work of groups easier and much more productive. As skilled facilitators we can also work with a group to help their long-term development so that they become more effective. Indeed, if complexity theory offers us an underpinning to the way we approach our work and design our interventions, facilitation is the key to the way we actually interact with client organisations.
- Management Development
- Although we are not a 'training company' we do have particular expertise in a number of areas of management development including performance management and presentation skills. We also offer workplace counselling and facilitation training.
