Why you, why now?

Trust in organisations and their leaders is at an all-time low, “on the verge of an existential crisis” according to the Edelman Global Trust Barometer. In 2017 over two-thirds of the general population do not have confidence in leaders. One in three employees does not trust their employer. Meanwhile, the leadership development industry has never been bigger. In 2015, Harvard Business Review estimated companies spent more than $360bn globally. Colleges and universities offer hundreds of degree courses on leadership, and the cost of customized leadership-development offerings from a top business school can reach $150,000 a person. Research at Harvard found only 11 percent of more than 500 executives they asked globally believed that their leadership development achieved and sustained the desired results. Mckinsey revealed only 7 percent of senior managers think their companies develop global leaders effectively, whilst 30 percent of US companies admit they have failed to exploit international business opportunities fully because they lacked leaders with the right capabilities. It’s a mess. Professor Michael Beers from Harvard described it as the “Great Training Robbery”, whilst the MIT Sloan Quarterly Review calls it “Leadership development’s epic fail.”

TRIBE is a brilliant tool for teams and leaders. If we’d had it in the All Blacks we would have saved a lot of time and got to our destination quicker.

Organisations, where performance really matters, where the consequences of failure are serious, have been turning to the fundamentally different insights offered by TRIBE. For leaders in the Army, Royal Navy, Royal Air Force, Royal Marines, Security Services and Special Forces the “epic fail” means people die. It’s not just them, elite sports teams, global businesses, start-ups, scale-ups, SMEs, schools, hospitals, charities, builders, lawyers, manufacturers, bankers, tech companies, government officials, civil servants have all reached the same conclusions. Whatever the size of your organisation by signing up you can learn the same proven approach.
