Partnership

10 Reasons To Partner With Us:

1

1. High touch: we believe that when it comes to developing the ability to deal with the ‘human factor’, a high touch approach should always prevail over a high tech approach. Our methods involve a lot of human interaction and a minimum of lectures and one-waypresentations.

2. A global mindset: our founders came from different cultural horizons. We operate globally. Our coaches and facilitators also embody that diversity. We have access to experts around the globe, located locally and able to react very quickly to your requirements.

3. Inspiring personalities: we propose facilitators with engaging personalities. They are seasoned speakers combining empathy and listening with fun and dynamism. They also have broad experience in coaching and assessments. Finally, they have experience as people manager. This combination is not usual. It provides the ‘life’ experience and depth needed to inspire your audience and participants.

4. Multi disciplinary approach to

development: ‘if you are a hammer, all problems look like nails’. Hamilton Davenport specializes in developing skills using different techniques such as coaching, training, mentoring, action learning (group or team coaching), OTJ/Feedback and assessments. This enables us to put development techniques in perspective. We are advocates of coaching and training as great development methods but we don’t believe each single technique brings solutions to all problems. Therefore we can provide more adequate advice and support.
