26 Steps Toolkits

26 Steps is a range of stand-alone toolkits for managers to learn or refresh the fundamentals of their role, and for an organisation to establish consistency of practice. The video here gives more information.

Our current range of toolkits includes:

Personalisation of content

A key feature of the 26 Steps toolkits is that they can be quickly personalised to any organisation and business. This demonstrates our ethos of working with internal operations, HR and L&D professionals to assist them in delivering the results required by the organisation, alongside other interventions.

Implementation

A critical element of a successful introduction of 26 Steps into any organisation is the implementation process, where it is wished to have a wider impact and roll-out across the organisation. We work with the sponsor(s) to identify the way that will work for you. Many businesses wish to bring this knowledge in-house to aid a wider roll-out and we are very happy to support this.

26 Steps Philosophy

Much of our learning is done in the workplace, often adopting habits from colleagues around us. 26 Steps gives a structure to provide colleagues with accurate information about their job role to enable them to demonstrate capability and to provide consistency of practice. Short module content covers pertinent subject matter followed by a number of activities to assist in finding further information on the intranet or to discover how things are done in the business. A brief meeting with a mentor, often the line manager, consolidates the learning, adjusting and adding information where appropriate, before identifiying key changes to be made in the workplace. The learning occurs in the workplace alongside normal work, providing a range of filters over 6 months through which to view performance.

Colleagues take personal responsiblity for the learning and the mentor 1:1s allow for a coaching culture to develop. Guidance is provided for the mentors. Often line managers identify areas for the whole team to work with for continuous improvements.
