Green Giraffe
Developing a training programme for employees across different levels of the organisation.
The organisation
With offices all over the world, Green Giraffe has been providing cutting-edge financial advice and market information on all aspects of renewable energy since 2010. Their unwavering ambition is to deliver highly qualified and specialised guidance, driven by the belief that renewable energy is a vital component in ensuring a healthy and sustainable future for all.
When HR Manager Catherine Waters began her search for a training and coaching partner to help boost communication throughout the organisation, she created a list of six international agencies that met the requirements. After the sales pitch, Catherine was immediately drawn to InContext.
“The sales pitch was actually immediately the first coaching session. A special and unforgettable start”
The InContext way
Our approach went beyond just delivering training; we challenged Green Giraffe to think deeply about their organisation, the way of working together in teams and underlying issues. This foundation-building process set the stage for a transformative journey, where employees at all levels, from the management team to new joiners, were empowered through a comprehensive programme focused on feedback, leadership, collaboration, management, and culture.
“InContext got us thinking from the very first moment. About our organisation, the way we work together and the issues which we ourselves had not yet identified.”
How we left a mark
Because of the themes, but also because of the start with a personality test for all employees, we were able to make an impact immediately. The team at Green Giraffe is very close-knit and there has always been a pleasant and friendly atmosphere. However, not everything was always discussed, which could sometimes lead to misunderstandings. The sessions immediately contributed to better mutual understanding and cooperation within the Green Giraffe team. Catherine witnessed a positive shift in behaviour, with colleagues now daring to engage in courageous conversations and address the “elephant in the room” that had previously been overlooked or avoided.
“During personal conversations and meetings I see that ‘the elephant in the room’ is now being addressed, colleagues now dare to give each other feedback and know how to do so, so the team has emerged stronger.”
Evaluation
We’re always striving to elevate our game and learn from the brilliant minds we’re fortunate enough to work with. That’s why we were thrilled when Catherine, one of our valued clients, took the time to share her thoughts on our collaboration over the past year.
Catherine had nothing but praise for the way we handled things – she described the cooperation as incredibly professional and valuable. And the icing on the cake? Catherine mentioned that the training sessions we provided received positive reviews from her employees.
