WE HELP BUSINESSES
ACHIEVE EXTRAORDINARY
RESULTS.
With increased competition and increasingly difficult market conditions
across the business spectrum, it has never been more important that
companies have their entire teams working towards their combined goals,
efficiently and effectively. New North Consulting Company has a range
of tools that can assist you, the Business Leader, to get the most
out of your people.
As the world of business has changed and evolved, the need for effective
leaders has skyrocketed. For businesses to become truly empowering
and innovative enterprises, they must develop leaders throughout the
organisation. In fact, the organisation of the future is an organisation where
everyone is a leader. It is only when people are able to lead themselves that
they are actually empowered to be creative and innovative, and become
engaged in their role.
A host of data shows that levels of Employee Engagement worldwide are
low. On average, 13% of workers are engaged at the workplace. Gallup, in
a substantive world-wide 2013 study determined that the number for South
African businesses is between 10% and 20% (depending on jobs).
What is special about having Engaged Employees? Well, they work,
hard, they do more than they are supposed to, and they apply their
minds to improve the business they work in. In short, they are us,
the business owners, if we worked in the business.
Most concerning is the fact that 45% of South African workers are ‘Actively
Disengaged’.It’s not just that they are unhappy at work; they’re busy acting out
their unhappiness. Every day, these workers undermine what their engaged
co-workers accomplish. The remaining 35% are described as Disengaged
Employees, who are essentially “checked out.” They’re sleepwalking through
their workday, putting time — but not energy or passion — into their work.

2. OUR UNIQUE PROCESS
We know that simple training never works to
achieve sustainable results. Sustainable results
are achieved by helping participants shift
their paradigm. Rather than following a usual
approach of “How to, What to, When to”, we
implement desired behaviour changes into
participant’s daily habits and activities through
a strategic coaching intervention. Using the
concept of ‘Spaced Repetition’ and weekly
coaching sessions, these behaviour changes
become conditioning that will improve actions
and results, ultimately paving the way to success.
FIVE AREAS OF FOCUS
All our programs are designed to achieve
results in the following areas:
• Increased Productivity
• Enhanced Communication
• Increased Focus on Priorities
• Improved Organisational Skills
• Development of Key Personnel
Why is engagement important? Research shows the following improvements
in firms with high levels of engagement:
Employee Engagement is not about sensitivity and feelings, it’s about
performance.
We focus on three key areas identified in research to improve employee
engagement:
1. Having (and employing) the right managers
It’s important that managers have the skills and abilities to be able to fulfil
their role’s responsibilities to be able to excel. Great managers must have
a talent for supporting, positioning, empowering, and engaging their staff.
Choosing and developing the right managers in an organisation has an
immediate improvement on employee engagement.
2. Developing Employees Strengths
Employees who feel engaged at work, and who can use their strengths in
their jobs are more productive and profitable, stay longer, have happier
customers, and produce higher quality work. Companies that invest time
and effort in helping employees understand their strengths and apply
them in the workplace will unlock these benefits.
3. Enhance Employees Well Being
The highest performing managers find a way to help improve their
employees lives while improving their performance at work.
