"DRAMATIC CHANGE" PERSONAL EFFECTIVENESS WORKSHOP
CASE STUDY

ECM European Credit Management Ltd


A SELECTION OF QUOTES FROM PARTICIPANTS:

"It felt as though that role play was written for me!"

"The choice of Peer and Boss scenarios for the role plays fitted my needs exactly!"

"I now understand what I need to do differently and have the confidence to do it!"

"This will make so much difference to my confidence in meetings!"

"At the start of the personal development process with Wadenhoe Consultancy, I identified five key management challenges, all of which have now been addressed in full"

"A key strength of the workshop is that it was specific to ECM and my needs".

BACKGROUND

ECM has grown significantly since it was founded ten years ago. Our brief was to design and deliver a workshop for finance specialists who had recently made the transition into leadership roles.

The focus was on behaviours associated with personal effectiveness in a range of one-to-one and group situations, with a particular focus on areas where participants had to deal with difficult issues and influence others, including their colleagues and immediate managers, without line authority.

PROCESS
  • Meetings with senior management to learn about their expectations of the Workshop.
  • One-to-One meetings with participants to review challenges and workshop expectations.
  • Preparation of tailored role plays reflecting each participant's real challenges.
  • Tailored in-house workshops, starting with feedback on personal style; providing a practical toolkit and then focusing heavily on "Dramatic Change" role plays with professional actors.
  • Personal Action Plans
  • Tailored follow-up support from Wadenhoe Consultancy
BENEFITS

Participants left the workshop with increased confidence:
  • To handle some of the difficult conversations they had previously avoided.
  • To influence important situations that needed to be addressed.
In both cases, providing significant opportunity for making a positive impact on the Organisation.
