In order to make transitions an individual needs to bring new ideas and behaviours to the situations in which they find themselves. Generative thinking enables one to create appropriate responses to new situations by creating completely new behaviours or by drawing upon and adapting from one’s previous experience.
« Back to Glossary IndexThe main thing that struck me when working with SyCon is the depth of intelligence they bring to their programmes. Their Transformational Leadership training has been crucial in the development of our high potential people. There is no hype, just genuine desire to help individuals and organisations to improve their performance.
SyCon responded quickly to the challenge which we set and in a style which was innovative and stimulating.
SyCon made an enormous difference to the way we behaved and interacted as a team–and our performance delivery benefited significantly as a result. They also used their skills to help properly integrate a multi-national team with very different backgrounds. John and Chris are very skilled at what they do, really care about the people they are helping, and really make a difference. Use them!!
Participating in the SyCon Transformational Leadership programme undoubtedly made me a more effective manager of both myself and my staff. As a result of the training I feel that I communicate more effectively, that meetings I manage go more smoothly and that I solve problems in a more logical and efficient way. The ‘quality culture’ sold by SyCon is practicable and applicable to every day work situations; it is great fun to do and the payback for me was immediate.
This is a small group of people who have an extraordinary ability to coach senior executives to appreciate their personal patterns of interaction within their teams.
SyCon add a new dimension to leadership and team development. Their impartiality means a balanced and rational discussion and their organisational skills are outstanding. They are the catalyst for change.
SyCon workshops with our technology teams have been a key to both individual and team performance improvement. They are effective for both established and newly formed teams.
SyCon has given Ford powerful techniques which enable people to become more aware of the effect they have on others and so work together more effectively as teams. These skills are presented in a clear, straightforward, non-threatening manner and are of significant benefit to both the individual and the Company.
SyCon have been able to provide invaluable facilitation and guidance, resulting in outcomes supported by all participants.
We used SyCon most successfully at BP Finance International to help mould a more effective top team of management. SyCon help each of us on my team see the others on the team more clearly, and also understand how each of us were being seen. This led to much more productive executive meetings with increased resulting action which was important to our business.
