Organisational Development
Today’s challenges have left the working world in a turbulent sea of constant change.
We’re hearing first-hand from leaders and their teams suffering many obstacles including:
- Leading effectively through a crisis
- Building real empathy and motiving their team
- Balancing wellbeing with team performance
- Creating good habits in a hybrid world
Are your leaders suffering from these too?
The good news is, through our UK team of psychologists, coaches and facilitators we can build your ability to reach goals faster, drive performance and put you at the leading edge of employee wellbeing.
69% of senior leaders surveyed put their success down to good company culture.
With that in mind here’s 5 areas of organisational development we focus on that strike at the heart of your future success.
Drop us a note about how your leaders are coping this year and we’ll send some insights over.
1. Leadership Development
Inspire from the front
77% of businesses report deficiencies when it gets to leadership level which is a staggering statistic.
Break the mould with leadership that empowers and develop influential techniques that turn your strengths as a leader into commercial results and recognition.
We help:
Established leaders – Harness the power of adaptability, real empathy and powerful leadership.
New Leaders – 40% of new leaders fail in the first 18 months, we mould leaders at this crucial stage to bring fresh ideas to the business instead of mounting stress.
High potentials – To sustain your businesses’ success you need great leaders for the future. Build skills from within your team and empower talented new hires.
Leaders in new roles – Leaders are moving sectors as the job market shifts creating an experience and understanding gap, at the same time these leaders bring fresh perspectives and lucrative results if their skills are used correctly. Are your new leaders performing or struggling?
We help large complex businesses turn leadership into a powerful force.
Here’s an insight into what it’s like working with us:
“The programme for our most senior 25 leaders was very successful and challenging which is exactly what we wanted it to be. That success was down to the skills, in depth knowledge, sensitivity and approach of the facilitators from D4S.”
2. Team Development
Drive success through your greatest asset, your people
Increase performance and wellbeing through powerful cutting-edge techniques.
Companies with happy employees outperform the competition by 20%.

Building a deep connection between your teammates and leadership can be game changing, in a way to translates through increased employee wellbeing and lucrative commercial results.
Turning teammates into advocates can send shockwaves through the business, in a great way.
We meet many leaders who worry about encouraging their team to raise concerns and then appearing disingenuous when they can’t action everything raised.

5. Company Culture and Change
Constantly evolve in today’s world
Let’s be honest, today’s world keeps throwing curveballs at us. Not only have our ways of working become more complex with hybrid working and technology, but our emotional wellbeing has been deeply impacted too.
We’re at the cutting edge of the research side of DEI (Diversity, Equity and Inclusion) helping teams understand each other on a deep level and embracing demographic diversity, neurodiversity and cognitive diversity.
We dive into your team culture, promoting powerful performance engagement and using other innovative techniques.
