Co-operation to mutual benefit - that is, to the benefit of all concerned - is the guiding principle of McCourts' work. Discretionary effort and co-operation are then given by choice. To demand them can simply cause resentment. People choose to take personal responsibility, to give their discretionary effort and to use their initiative only when they are committed to achieving commonly held aims.
Organisations need continuously to change and revitalise themselves. Goodwill and hard work are insufficient. Change needs new skills to be learned, applied, reviewed and improved.
At McCourts we know how to develop skill in our clients; it is not just about the acquisition of knowledge. Skill is the ability to do something at will. Most people are used to developing skills in technical or physical areas such as accountancy or sport. It is equally possible to develop the skills of leadership and effective teamworking. At McCourts that is what we are good at. To find out more, please contact us.
