Illustrative examples of ImaginativeHR coaching, mentoring & blended learning projects:
1) Executive development coaching (Financial sector, United Kingdom)
Background:
The ImaginativeHR team was engaged by a financial services organisation to deliver a solution to the organisation’s senior front office staff as part of the organisation’s drive to optimise / develop the abilities of their key talent to engage, develop and delegate within their teams, during a highly challenging period within this sector.
Solution:
Our team, (comprising twelve executive coaches with substantial experience of the financial services sector), delivered three-meeting and six-meeting, one-to-one coaching programmes, preceded by Strengthscope assessments aimed at identifying individual strengths, to inform the developmental process. The project was highly instrumental in identifying the key team strengths and developing / promoting a ‘playing to strengths’ culture.
2) Virtual mentoring (Technology sector, United Kingdom)
Background:
The ImaginativeHR team was engaged by a technology sector organisation, to deliver (general) management mentoring for two senior leaders (based in Europe and Asia) who had both been identified as a potential future CEO – as part of the organisation’s talent planning strategy.
Solution:
Two of our senior mentors (both previously MDs / senior Board level-leaders in the technology / telecoms sector) mentored the two senior leaders via Skype and telephone over a period of six months. During this time, individual developmental needs were addressed, including specific Board-level / executive ‘presence’, presentation skills and personal branding. At the end of the process both senior leaders felt (and were deemed to be) equipped and appropriately positioned for potential promotion.
