The power of scorecards in client management
Learn about Insync's customised approach to scorecard implementation and how it drives continuous improvement in customer experience.
Leadership and Professional Development
Our research says that over 90% of Australians think that their organisation should make the most of its human capital, but only 20% believe that their organisation’s current culture encourages this.
How is your organisation unlocking the potential of its people? What interventions are required for your organisation to perform better?
If an individual increases their professional capability, it will likely impact the team’s performance. If the team performs better, it will almost certainly lead to an increase in the performance of the organisation.
Expanding performance capability and creating leadership mindsets, requires learning and practice. It’s like learning to ride a bike. It takes an investment in resources, reliable support and effective coaching. It takes effort and it takes discomfort. And it requires opportunities to practice leadership in a setting that gives employees more room to fail and learn, with no risk to the organisation.
At Insync, we take the time to understand your organisation’s learning needs and to appreciate what success means to you. Our learning interventions are bespoke, designed to address the leadership and performance management needs within your organisation.
Our intention is to build capability that is measurable at the individual, team, executive or organisation level:
| Individuals | Teams | Executive | Organisation |
|---|---|---|---|
| One-on-one coaching | Action planning workshops | Executive coaching | Leadership programs |
| Psychometric profiling | Small group coaching | Executive mentoring | Strategic leadership consultation |
| 360 assessment | Skill development workshops | Psychometric profiling | |
| Leadership team effectiveness interventions |
Individuals
One-on-one coaching
One-on-one coaching provides targeted support for employees in management positions with a focus on developing self-awareness and performance improvement. Insync coaches are all qualified and credentialed through the International Coach Federation.
Psychometric profiling
We offer a range of psychometric profiling resources, 360 Degree Assessment and other feedback services to assist and support professional development. We work with you to determine the most appropriate instrument to meet the objectives of the individual, team or organisation.
Psychometric instruments are available in the areas of:
- Leadership Capabilities
- 360 Degree Feedback
- Team Development
- Change Management
- Emotional Intelligence
- Conflict Management
- Personality Types
- Stress Management
360 assessment
Our 360 degree feedback survey helps leaders improve self awareness. It compares their own perceptions of their leadership behaviours against those of their manager, peers and/or direct reports.
For some leaders the stark contrast between their self view and the honest evaluation of others can be very confronting. The sensitive nature of the process is the reason why organisations choose to partner with an independent specialist provider, rather than managing 360 feedback themselves.
Teams
Action planning workshops
Action planning workshops are in-depth sessions where actions are identified and initiatives that will have the greatest impact on the lived experiences of your employees and their performance are planned.
Small group coaching
Small Group Coaching offers an approach to agreeing to and focusing on key issues and learning needs at the team level and co-creating goals, accountability and plans to make progress. Small group coaching is typically for groups of 6 or less.
Skill development workshops
Insync offers programs or workshops to support leaders or managers to develop essential skills for higher performance. Skill based workshops are available in such areas as:
- Coaching Others

Executive
Executive coaching
Executive Coaching provides targeted support for employees in senior management positions with a focus on developing self-awareness, clarity of goals and strategic focus. Executive coaches have held roles in senior capacities and are all qualified and credentialed through the International Coach Federation.
Executive mentoring
Executive mentoring can increase confidence and strengthen performance at either the executive or board level of the organisation. An Executive Mentor is an independent, confidential advisor with extensive executive and/or directorship experience, who offers an ear, insights and advice on managing key business challenges. Participants are matched with a respected business leader based on learning needs.

Leadership team effectiveness interventions
As the model that other teams in your organisation look to, how well is your executive functioning as a team? What is the data telling us about the top down culture or dynamics within the team?
Insync can work with you to consider the mindset shifts required and to tailor a leadership intervention specifically to improve team dynamics and performance. Leadership Team Effectiveness Interventions could comprise workshops or facilitated conversations in areas such as:
- Potential of Purpose and Vision
- Team Dynamics – what holds us back
- Creating Trustworthy Processes
- Strategy and the ‘Bigger Picture’
- Post-conventional thinking
- Ethical decision making
- Managing and leading change within the team
Organisation
Leadership programs
Our leadership or professional development programs are bespoke and designed specifically around the identified needs of your organisation or team. Programs can be designed and delivered for any level or vertically i.e. across an intersection of the whole organisation.
Our intent is to create a learning ‘lab’, enabling participants to take a deep dive into their understanding of leadership and self, and to experiment in a safe space, working with real-world leadership challenges and situations, as well as through reflection and practice in the workplace.
Strategic leadership consultation
Insync offers a consulting capability specifically focused on learning and development. We can partner with you to consider the question of ‘where to next’ and to support you in the design of your leadership capability framework, L&D strategy, or the design of your own training or development experiences.
Leadership Development Frameworks and Assessments
Our team hold accreditations in the following frameworks and assessment tools:
- Harthill Leadership Development Framework
- Firo-B Instrument
- Hogan Personality Inventory (and related Instruments)
- Herrmann Brain Dominance Instrument (HBDI)
- Aptitude tests including the Talent Q Aptitude Tests and Saville Assessments
- MLQ International Leadership Assessments
- Emotional Intelligence assessments including the Roche Martin Emotional Capital Report and the BarOn Emotional Quotient-Inventory (BarOn EQ-i®)
- Global Leadership Wellbeing Survey (GLWS)
Using data to identify and interpret learning needs
Working with Insync, nothing is left to chance. We take the guesswork out of needs analysis. Our frameworks yield data from which we can draw insights into the capabilities and learning needs for the individual, team or organisation.
Perhaps your organisation has already employed one of our surveys. Or perhaps you have come to us from a different starting point, informed by different data. What does the data tell you about the learning gaps in the organisation?
Give us a call to discuss ways that we can help you to determine the needs within your organisation or to action your insights.
