We’re making better business decisions. We’re drawing more from the breadth and depth of the organisation; we’re managing tensions much better today than in the past. But, secondly, it’s had a big effect on the internal dynamic of the business. It’s a better place to work. And, when you put those things together it starts to sustain and repeat.

We started making fundamental changes in the way that the organisation behaves and what the organisation values in a culture...And looking six months later, the organisation worked better together and people were finding it easier to work together because they saw that we trusted each other. It pervaded the organisation. We moved the organisation forward this way and it was hugely successful.

Company: Boeing
Industry: Aerospace
RocheMartin solution used: Tailored EQ Leadership programme

CHALLENGE

Boeing was experiencing significant levels of executive burnout and high turnover rates. The cost of this turnover to the business was substantial, impacting the organisation's capabilities and its culture.

Exit interviews indicated that the number one reason for staff departures was poor relationships with managers and supervisors. With competition intensifying for highly skilled people, the organisation could not afford to continue with the status quo.

RESULTS
  • Increased levels of openness, adaptability and empathy.
  • Increased flexibility which encouraged greater creativity and empowerment.
  • Reduced stress.

Improving leaders’ emotional intelligence can make a big difference to the atmosphere at work but change will not happen overnight. Engineers and technical folk respond well to objective data, not general statements. [The programme] took what is an academic concept and broke it down into manageable chunks of information . . . It took a technical approach in that the skills were broken down into components and explained in a way that made sense to them.

Company: People Resources
Industry: Consultancy
RocheMartin solution used: The ECR

CHALLENGE

People Resources founder Deirdre Murray was first introduced to Emotional Intelligence more than 20 years ago. As her career developed and she specialised in organisational behaviour, she recognised the impact EQ could have on corporate leaders.

Initially certified with another EQ framework, she found that it was not specific to leadership and the daily challenges senior leaders face. She was searching for a user-friendly, well organised, and easy-to-follow EQ framework that offered instant credibility with both senior leaders and the HR teams of multinational organisations. RocheMartin’s Emotional Capital framework, and its suite of ECR tools, fit the bill perfectly.

RESULTS
  • Our framework provided the credibility and impact needed to secure the future of People Resources.
  • Using the ECR has helped them to expand at a rapid rate. 
  • They have secured long-term client engagements.

Emotional Intelligence training is key imperative for business leaders. EQ encourages leaders to develop self-awareness of their own emotional intelligence and develop their teams in a much more responsive way. Leadership development programmes that don’t have EQ as a key component are missing out on something essential.” Working with RocheMartin over the last 20 years and its solutions has been excellent. Dr Martyn Newman is inspirational. He’s developed all the products and made them very user-friendly.

Company: Diadem Performance
Industry: Coaching
RocheMartin solution used: The ECR

CHALLENGE

Diadem Performance specialises in training and coaching middle and senior management from small to large organisations to develop their commercial soft skills. They have identified several core competencies that are crucial to success when you are developing skills in negotiationsalesmanagement and leadership.

However, Diadem needed a way to codify those skills and provide a measurable framework against which its clients could track their progress.

RESULTS
  • Certification unlocked new sales opportunities and strengthened their market positioning.
  • They are able to offer effective coaching and guidance to professionals at all stages of their careers.
  • They joined a coaching network to share best practices and peer-to-peer advice. 

One of the best features of the ECR lies in its accessibility. So many reports tend to overcomplicate things, whereas the ECR makes it easy for the user to gain real insight and understanding. Rather than focusing on the theory, the ECR gives them the information they need to move forward in their learning, either independently or with the support of a coach.

Industry: Consultancy
RocheMartin solution used: The ECR

CHALLENGE

PDI needed a new tool to facilitate leadership growth and transform performance across its leadership journey modules. But its diverse client base meant that finding an appropriate tool was not straightforward. PDI had strict criteria to satisfy. First, its chosen tool had to enjoy scientific validity and global recognition. This was essential in building credibility with its clients. The chosen tool also had to be able to cascade culturally across an entire organisation and still maintain relevance in different regions in the world. PDI turned to the ECR – and hasn’t looked back.

RESULTS
  • Thye secured the backing of C-suite figures and company-wide engagements.
  • PDI coachees developed a confident, optimistic, and positive attitude towards learning.
  • The ECR helped them to grow their business over time.

“The experience of working with RocheMartin has been seamless. The team there is highly collaborative, very engaged, and it’s very easy to work with them. On top of that, the ECR speaks for itself. It’s user-friendly, the validations are strong, it gives really good quality information and data, and the different content you get from the ECR 360 gives you great material to develop rich coaching conversations. It’s definitely our tool of choice.”
