Message from Paul McIntee – Managing Partner:

What we are about in this partnership is sharing our expertise to help you to become more effective in your business.

How do we do this?

Effectiveness starts with understanding what we do, what we want and why we are not getting there. Our approach is always to listen, explore, diagnose and devise solutions for your issues.

We can help with development either with individuals or with teams to help you achieve your aims.

Performance, or the effectiveness of a business, depends on its people being clearly directed and having the appropriate skills and methods, to work well together. Take advantage of our expertise to help develop these.

Client Feedback

Obsidian are excellent change and management facilitators. They understand fully our complex business of people, science and logistics and that we work in one of the most challenging places in the world. Our partnership has resulted in significant improvements in the performance and joint working of my senior management team”

The feedback from different individuals in the team has been exceedingly positive. The sub-teams now understand each others’ responsibilities better and, importantly, how they can help each other. We have seen a far greater degree of support and collaboration. The last year has been tough. However the team has continued to perform effectively throughout these very challenging times”

Thank you also for all your hard work, for being so generous with your time, and for taking so much interest and care. I think your approach to the sessions was just right, and it has been a lesson in professionalism for us all, myself as much as the shop staff!”

Top of the tree. Obsidian has fantastic, perhaps unique, strengths – their coaching services are a jewel.
