How we work

Challenging – The first stage, when working with Orbit, is problem definition.

The Orbit experts will work closely with you to understand your business, your values, your culture to get to grips with the business challenge or task-in-hand you are aiming to address. We will then challenge you to make sure we have fully understood what is driving your reasoning. From there Orbit will put together for you a bespoke programme to enable you to achieve your goals.

Orbit’s focus is to ensure the change you are looking for is not only achieved, but is also sustainable. We are as much change management experts are we are people management experts. We pride ourselves in making sure every programme we deliver is firmly embedded into your organisation. Often coaching is a useful tool to enable this, but it is not the only tool in our armoury. A combination of tools and techniques proven over time are combined uniquely to fit the needs of your challenge.

We would love to hear from you to discuss your needs.

Trusted Advisors

For many of the organisations we have worked with over the years, Orbit often becomes a ‘go-to-partner’  for all round business support and ‘critical-friend’ relationships for executives, covering all aspects of business life. From strategy, compliance and risk to mergers & acquisitions and everything in between, Orbit has the know-how (or access to the know-how) to support you to deliver ‘the vision’ you are striving for, for your organisation.

If we are asked for advice from CEOs and senior executives for which we may not have direct expertise – we have a first-class Orbit Advisory Board, made up of carefully selected business people who have achieved great success in their own careers. These seasoned individuals are deeply ingrained within the Orbit team, and are available to work directly with us, and our clients, to further support our growing client base. This sets Orbit apart, as we can bring in unrivalled functional and sector expertise to cover all aspects of business that you as a busy CEO or senior executive may be looking for.

Enabling - Our unique approach often uses these three tools as stand-alone options, or combined:

Assessing

We look to provide valuable insight and tangible benefits through using a range of carefully selected behavioural and functional  assessment tools, which then form the foundations of our bespoke programmes

Coaching

One-to-one coaching with the key members of your team can often play a major role in your Orbit programme to achieve your goals. Coaching your executives on their individual development plans enables you to build longevity, for sustainable and tangible results.

Training

Cascading the sentiments of your Orbit programme to the wider team can be achieved through Orbit workshops Orbit will share a wide range of carefully selected, powerful material via compelling, interactive workshops that are entirely bespoke and geared specifically towards your organisational goals.

What our clients are saying

“Current numbers show volume sales for Consumer Finance will be up by at least 20% by for the financial year. At the final celebration workshop the team quoted numerous examples of where the change facilitated by this programme has made a huge impact, i.e. examples of new accounts opened, struggling relationships revived and significant growth in accounts.”

Kevin Brockbank, Sales Director - Santander Consumer Finance

“Gill has been acting as my coach for the past 6 months since my promotion to the CEO role. This step-up has happened at a time of significant change and challenge for the organisation. She has been instrumental in my development of a stronger and authentic ‘voice’ to better manage the diversity of my stakeholder community, be that internal, my Board or the broader, external market. Between our face-to-face sessions, Gill is always available to offer advice and support, and regularly sends over articles, models and insights to further my leadership and strategic development.”

Joanne Prowse, CEO - PhonepayPlus

“We wanted something tailored to really help those Senior Managers step up to that next level, as we are very keen to promote fantastic talent from within. Orbit took the time to understand Alpha, what we stand for, our core values and what drives us as a business. This has been absolutely key to tailoring the programme, and the great results we have seen.”

Joe Docker, Director - Alpha FMC
