TouchPoint in Context

Why TouchPoint? 

Because it is our experience that business is losing touch. 

People are unhappy. They are not being served. And a working group talking to other underserved people is not fixing the pain points. 

I think almost like the wealth gap, there is an ever widening leadership gap, and that gap is getting harder and harder to bridge. 

There are many reasons for the leadership gap: 

• There’s a generational gap where our new leaders would like to engage with a different leadership practice: one focussed more on mindset, strategy and implementation rather than tools. Tools can be learned online; experience needs practise. 

• Leaders are time poor, more now than ever before: organisations have become lean and agile; loosely translated into fewer people to do the same amount of work. Leaders are quite simply too busy having meetings and writing reports to steward their newly appointed leaders.  

• Desired outcomes are changing. Our new leaders are more vocal about staying true to their purpose and values and expect their organisations to authentically deliver on the copy on their website and the employee experience offered in the interview. 

• Mostly, because trust in leadership is at an all time low. Everywhere we look, we are delivered more and more examples of abuse of power. People are looking for something new, something different, something hopeful.

What is TouchPoint?

A creative, contemporary leadership consultancy. 

Creative because we believe a leadership practice should hold space for new ways of approaching, working through and solving pain points. 

Contemporary because we are interested in working with new leaders who will demonstrate respect, stewardship and integrity to our children when they enter the workplace.

Rather than supplying a set of tools to leaders, we offer a practice. Tools require a specific context to be effective; a practice requires commitment, discipline and awareness.

We love work, we’re ambitious, and we want to make a difference. And we want to inspire more and more people to feel the same.

How does TouchPoint engage with business?

6 days over 12 weeks.

2 days a month for three months. 

Why three months? Because transformation programmes run for 12 weeks: discipline becomes new habits, neural pathways are forged, mindsets are shifted and confidence to continue successfully all happen in 12 week timeframes. 

We have curated a practice that ensures business outcomes and authentic engagement. 

We want leaders to be given every opportunity to succeed and to cultivate their own unique leadership skills that will serve all challenges and all team members.
