Group 8's approach to this sector is to strongly address the staff retention, education and morale issue through a strategic program of
  • developing the capacity of senior leaders to facilitate an organizational culture aligned with its core values
  • developing the individual capacity to engage one's self and direct reports in professional growth

Attention is paid to the brain states that contribute strongly to managing the self and others, while cognitive coaching is used as both a cultural change agent and a vehicle to engage individuals in growth and development.
