Case study: Driving innovation in the Health Tech Industry

When we met Passion For Life Healthcare they were at a turning point – formation of a new senior leadership team, a change of business model, and a move away from siloed working towards wider collaboration, which necessitated all employees to work more strategically. They also wanted to develop collective leadership capabilities, while remaining people-centred and values driven.

First step was to understand the current status of the organisational structure, and design a new one, identifying where development opportunities for individuals and teams would arise.

Yvette then delivered a team development day at their HQ. The morning saw us working with the leadership team to define what being strategic means to them, and how they can help each other to dial up their strengths and overcome any blind spots - their collective strategic capabilities are what's going to keep them moving forward and innovating.

Then she worked with the whole team to help them understand their own (and each other’s) needs during change, why we can resist it, and how we can get more comfortable with it. Getting buy in from the whole team, and ensuring they feel safe and heard is crucial in any change process.

CEO Emma Fearon told us that we “successfully delivered sessions that met the exact requirements of the business during a time of transformation” and said “Thank you so much Yvette for two excellent, thought provoking sessions which I know helped us all think more carefully about the process of change and how we move though it effectively as a team”.
