The way we work
Overview
GPC is an innovative consulting organisation. Built on an evidence-based approach, we are principles-led and outcome focused. We seek to deliver exceptional impact for our client by challenging traditional approaches and providing genuine alternatives to established ways of attracting, developing, managing and retaining excellent teams.
Vision
Our consulting approach supports companies to diagnose and understand the problems that they encounter in relation to their ability to attract, develop and retain, the skills their business needs. We want companies to see that pre-packaged solutions to the symptoms they feel they have, do not provide sustainable solutions. Enabling companies to see the value of investing in a strategic approach to save time and money, recruit the best people for their organisation and create a sustainable employment model that rewards both the business and the people that work there.
Our approach to skills support for economic development is a step-change for local government and we aim to support local growth by identifying the support that Economic Development teams should provide by diagnosing the problems at scale at a local level. ….We innovate, we challenge, we enable.
Culture
We are a growing business, and our culture naturally enables people to be themselves, rather than conform to a directed way of being. We operate with general principles that guide people: Be nice, do your job, help others do their job.
We work flexibly, with agility and autonomy: We consider the client and deliver the required outcomes but the structure of how we work is not rigid.
We look for improvements: We actively seek out opportunities to improve the way things can be done – this goes for our business as well as yours. Once we find better ways of doing things we are advocates and keen to share our insight.
Working together
We are a collaborative, learning organisation. We share ideas, we aim to educate, impart knowledge, improve and grow. We are supportive and inquisitive. We ask for help and support one another. Managers and leaders are accessible and can be challenged. Treat everyone with respect. We do not tolerate bullying, discrimination, controlling or condescending behaviour – and will call this out. We led by principles, not rules.
