Welcome to The Baobab Centre, we are based in York and work predominately in Yorkshire and the North-East of the UK, although we do have colleagues around the UK and we are able to travel and offer training wherever you are based.
New Developments:
We have developed a two day course on Listening Skills as a response to an increasing awareness amongst managers that good listening plays a crucial role in sound management practice. If you are interested in this and would like to know more, please feel free to give us a call. Otherwise an information flyer will be available on the website shortly.
We are now describing the Customer Services training as Personalising Customer and Colleague Relations, which we believe is a better way to convey our perspective on the human side of working with internal and external customers. For more information please click here.
For further information on the on-going Young Executive Mentoring programme please click here.
We are in the process of developing master classes in Critical Thinking Skills and Self Reflective Management to enhance the effectiveness of middle and senior managers. If this appeals to you please get in touch.
About us:
They say no man is an island. We all have to interact with another person or persons whether it be in our homes, at work or just going about our daily business. This is the basis of relationships.
It is also true to say there is no business without people. Understanding people and the dynamics of relationships is, therefore, crucial to our lives, our work and our businesses.
The Baobab Centre provides the knowledge and understanding which underpins relational management. It offers tools and strategies to individuals, teams and organisations to help them maximise their potential growth and development. We do this by offering:-
- Coaching, at all levels;
- Human Resources services and support;
- Mediation;
- Policy development support;
- Psychotherapeutic counselling;
- Team facilitation; and
- Training.
Whether you are accessing our services as an individual or as an organisation, we invite you to form a relationship with us, so that we may offer you a service best suited to your needs and so ensure good value.
