I usually get involved as a consultant when a small to a medium-sized organisation (SME) wants to generate a competitive edge or improve its performance. My role is often to help them improve their professional relationships, create a cooperative culture, and generate innovative solutions.

Positive Psychology Consultancy

To thrive in today's dynamic and demanding environment, organisations need employees who, in addition to technical skills, are mentally strong, emotionally intelligent, and professionally flexible to accept diverse responsibilities.

My consultancy services, which are inspired by Positive Psychology and Appreciative Inquiry, are designed to make positive changes, and create a constructive organisational culture.

Appreciative Inquiry (AI) was first developed in 1987, and later was incorporated into positive psychology with great results. Contrary to problem-focused techniques that are more suitable for fixing machines (not a team of humans), AI is an outcome directed technique which transforms an undesirable situation to an environment of sustainable growth and development. AI is based on the principles that are studied in Positive Psychology, Social Psychology, Sociology, Behavioural Economics, and Neuroscience.

In this framework, the consultancy process starts by picturing the desired outcome, considering the strengths of the organisation, and discussing the ideas that can help the organisation achieve its aspirations. These deliberations will lead to the planning of the necessary actions, commitments, and contributions that help the organisation realise its vision.

The culture of an organisation influences the actions and the behaviours of all of its employees. And because, the process is aiming to bring an attitude change (or a cultural change), participation of nearly everyone in the organisation is crucial to the success and sustainability of the process.  

My approach is designed to bring about positive change, strategic thinking, and cultural transformation. I facilitate a high degree of involvement and commitment, and promote collaborative relationships.

Positive psychology consultancy fosters hopeful and creative thinking which in turn, leads to wilful actions for achieving what the organisation and its employees really care about. It connects the employees to their core values and calling, and derives them to do their best.
