High Performance Change
Higher Productivity from better Leadership - because better leadership unlocks more discretionary effort. It also mandates leadership behaviour change, and that requires higher levels of adaptability. From the NHS to tech SME's, Adaptability Based Leadership is proven to develop higher performing leaders.
HPC founder Rich Alderton has been leading change for over 25 years, in some of the world’s most innovative and dynamic organisations. Along the way he's run a billion dollar supply chain based in Sweden and been the CEO of a multi-national based in New Zealand. So he can say with some confidence that he's walked at least half a mile in the shoes of those he works with. Rich is a qualified coach and mentor (CMI L7).
Rich coached us through the merger of 3 senior leadership teams into 1 team accountable for 1,500 people. Developing a range of leadership skills through the lens of Adaptability really helped us come together as a team at a time of unprecedented change'.

Coaches and trains all leadership skills - which requires IQ, through Adaptability - which requires Adaptability Intelligence (AQ). Here's why:
Learnings skills is easy. Changing behaviour isn't. But unless you can adapt how you lead to deploy those skills, all that lovely learning will remain theory. Which is why most training is usually enjoyable but ultimately a waste of time and money.
