Culture is the heart of the organisation and is sustained by a connection to a shared purpose. Being intentional about developing culture in line with the organisation’s purpose will enable your team members to bring their best to work, thereby enhancing innovation, improving performance and ultimately increasing profits. Our SMARTspace format is what others refer to as workshops – ours are more conversation-driven and incorporate interactive technology with the aim of engaging teams to a greater extent and encouraging the valuable contribution of each individual.

Purposeful Learning Series

TowerStone facilitates The Purposeful Leadership Company’s Purposeful Learning Series (PLS) SMARTspaces, collectively or once-off, based on client needs with the intent of inspiring Brand Ambassadors to find true fulfilment in the workplace. The workshops provide a safe space for participants to learn about themselves and leadership, and how to improve to show up more purposefully. We believe that inspiring leadership is rooted in leveraging individual purpose, team purpose and organisational purpose to mobilise hands, minds and hearts.

Our Reason for Being

This one-day SMARTspace empowers Brand Ambassadors with an intimate knowledge of the organisational purpose, products and services to enable them to fulfil their role in their specific organisation with passion and pride.

DYNAMIC SMARTspaces

This interactive workshop is fully customised, based on the needs of the organisation. We gain insight into strengths and challenges by way of interviews held with internal clients as well as the specific team members to gauge where these obstacles and opportunities lie. This insight is used to develop a tailor-made workshop which explores how to overcome debilitating ways of working to achieve success. Such SMARTspaces include:

• A Personal Brand With Gravitas: Explores how entrenching one keystone habit specific to your unique circumstances will form the foundation of growing your personal brand, contribution and influence in line with your purpose, for long-term impact.
• Taking Meaningful Action: Contributing to our Organisation’s Success: Provides insight into What short- and long-term objectives the organisation or team must achieve and How the culture needs to be developed by the individuals and team to support achievement thereof.
• The Art of Having Meaningful Leadership Conversations: Explores not only the importance of having such engagements but also what gets in the way of having them and most importantly, how to have them effectively.
• Co-Creating Our Future: Hitting the Re-Start Button: Provides a customised experience for the team based on their unique needs, strengths and challenges in pursuit of achieving sustainable organisational success in a VUCA world.

Stillpoint

The ability to inspire and lead Brand Ambassadors requires the leader to develop from within i.e. to find their StillPoint. StillPoint^© focuses on unlocking individual leadership potential so that leaders can in turn empower their teams to be more accountable within, committed to and passionate about the organisation from five points of view as per the diagram.

Coaching

Through coaching, we help leaders to change their thinking to overcome engrained, debilitating behaviours, and they discover how to build a believable personal brand that others want to follow. They are also made aware of their impact on others and the role they play in how engaged (switched on) or disengaged (switched off) others are.

Assessments

All the assessments that we offer are made available as stand-alone offerings, but are optimally used to gain insight that is used meaningfully in conjunction with our various other offerings.

TowerStone offers the following self-administered assessments:

• Our 360° Leadership Brand Assessment provides insight to track individual behavioural growth within an organisation, based on the organisation’s values and leadership behaviours.
• Our 180° Leadership Brand Assessment provides insight to track team behavioural growth within an organisation based on the organisation’s values and leadership behaviours.
• 360° Coaching Assessments require coachees to nominate team members who provide feedback on a set of questions regarding how they show up as a leader. Ideally, this is conducted towards the beginning of the coaching journey and again at the end of the journey to track progress.

We are furthermore accredited partners and practitioners of a number of assessment tools which all provide valuable insight into how individuals and teams interact and align.
