Introduction Leading Lights improves business performance by transforming the contributions that your leaders and teams make to your business.

We utilise our diagnose, engage and enable framework with one key objective – to increase the capability and performance of leaders and teams in any industry sector.

We use our experiential learning expertise to enable our clients to develop, change and outperform.

We improve business performance by transforming the collective contribution

We diagnose, engage and enable - to tackle issues, innovate solutions and promote growth

Our framework We focus our energy, skills and experience in 3 areas:

Diagnose the issues and challenges that inhibit high performance.

Engage leaders and their teams to innovate high pay-back solutions.

Enable them to collectively deliver on execution targets that promote growth.

We assess capability and performance using the Essential 8™ Diagnostic and provide an unbiased perspective through evidence based analysis.

We immerse leaders and teams in high performance environments and test their individual and combined aptitude through invaluable learn by doing experiences.

We enable leaders to be highly effective, engaging, inspirational and to build committed teams that deliver on their objectives.

Our approach establishes a high-performance momentum that is self-sustaining

Leader and Team Effectiveness

Our Transition Performance™ approach develops leaders and teams ‘live and dynamically’ within the business and operational environment through a blend of diagnostic assessment, interactive workshops, experiential learning and coaching.

We identify the issues impacting execution targets, capitalise on strengths, address capability short-falls and develop performance improvement priorities.

Our Essential 8™ Diagnostic secures invaluable feedback and insight from across the organisation and benchmarks performance within the business strategy and plans.

We deliver increased alignment, engagement and productivity and establish a high-performance momentum that is self-sustaining.

Business Change and Transition

Leading Lights supports business change initiatives by enabling leaders and their teams to embrace a compelling vision, strategy and plan.

We help leaders change attitudes, mindsets and behaviours and build an integrated and engaged workforce in readiness for transition – experiential learning interventions fast-track the process.

Performance and capability assessments identify the ‘change and transition’ issues that will provide the opportunities for performance improvement.

Dedicated coaching is provided to those individuals and teams that require additional support through transition to maximise their contribution.

Appropriate leadership succession planning and resourcing strategies are identified to accord with the post-change environment.

Sustainability, resilience and business growth are key goals of the approach.

We build integrated and high-performing teams able to adapt and successfully transition

Project Team Performance Our approach to project team optimisation has been designed to meet the business, project and people needs of high-value, fast-paced, complex, multi-stakeholder projects.

The approach provides a quantitative assessment of team capability and performance to support the project throughout the entire lifecycle.

We address prevailing issues that impact project success such as poor set-up, ineffective leadership, lack of accountability, inadequate integration, poor communications and disengaged stakeholders.

We fast-track the integration of the ‘operator, contractor and supplier’ project stakeholders into a high-performing team.

We tackle the prevailing issues that impact the success of major projects

Our Transition Performance™ framework amplifies capability and performance in any sector

Our track record Partnered with BP since 2003 in support of the execution of multiple infrastructure, exploration and production projects and development of teams across the company.

Partnered with Talisman Sinopec UK over 4 years to optimise operational and functional performance across the company up to Senior Leadership level.

Partnered with Vivergo (British Sugar, BP and Dupont joint venture) to deliver performance improvement and integration programmes for a biofuels plant construction project.

Partnered with Petrofac to provide asset performance improvement programmes and Executive Team development for South-East Asia.

Partnered with Lloyds Banking Group to integrate their top 300 leaders following the merger with Halifax Bank of Scotland.

What clients say The main objective of the sessions was to work

up a ‘one team’ ethos and the project ended up as the most integrated and aligned one I have ever been on.

Operations Director – integrating 70 leaders of oil and gas mega project

To see a team that was misaligned and disconnected, within a complex high pressure delivery environment, transformed into a very coordinated high performing team was just incredible.

Programme Manager – performance improvement of major North Sea project

The team at Leading Lights have built strong relationships with the Senior Leadership Team, gone the extra mile to make a difference, and really do work as delivery and thinking partners.

Senior Vice President – executive team development programmes

The development experience facilitated by Leading Lights hits the mark every time – highly recommended for any senior team seeking to raise their game.
