Listen Later

How do you challenge your colleagues and clients to think deeply about the problems they bring to you, and how can you gain the credibility to help solve those problems?

This week on The GoodPractice Podcast, Ross G and Owen are joined by author and performance consultant Nigel Harrison to find out.

We discuss:

  • what performance consulting is
  • how it differs from traditional approaches to HR and L&D
  • how to act as a performance consultant without being confrontational.

If you'd like to get in touch with us about any of the things we've said on this show, you can tweet @RossGarnerGP and @OwenFerguson, or can email [email protected].

You can also tweet @GoodPractice and @GoodPracticeAUS.
