What We Do.
At The Ubuntu Partnership we offer tailored solutions to empower individuals and organisations alike
Strategic HR Advice, Support, and Leadership:
We believe (with fervour!) that HR is not an ‘administrative function’ that should be seen and not heard. We are not here to hire and fire; to police staff; or to spew out policies that are impractical and won’t ever be read. True HR and People practices are at the very core of what makes businesses succeed. The stronger your HR and People teams, the better prepared you’ll be to face the many challenges when growing a business. We will support you as a leader, support your HR team, or act as your HR team. We’ll meet you at whatever stage you’re at in your People journey.
Women who Work (and lunch from time to time!)
We fully believe in supporting high-performing women to break their own glass ceilings or create their own path. Through one-to-one coaching, we work with women who are as serious about their career as they are about their personal goals – often the two are unified by their ‘why’. Diversity of voice, experience, and opinion across all levels of your organisation is key to your success and, importantly, at the most senior table. Our experience at Board level, supporting and advising multiple stakeholders, is tailored to support the needs of the women in your team in order to reach goals they didn’t know were possible, drive business outcomes and success.
Culture and Brand
Culture is not a ‘People team’ or ‘HR’ function. It is not the values on your wall or the free fruit in the kitchen. It is the way in which you interview, how your team works together, how they talk to and support each other, how they react when the going gets tough. We will support you to codify what is important to your culture, and therefore your brand - especially as you scale, because we know that a strong culture encourages an environment where people – and therefore your business – will flourish. And then will enable your People and Leadership teams to be able to explain, but most importantly, drive your culture forward – and pass the baton to those still to come.
People Team Structure and Effectiveness
Establishing a flourishing People team that is empowered to and capable of addressing your most pressing People needs is not as easy as it sounds. If you are unsure of the state of your current People team or not sure whether or not they’re delivering what needs to be delivered, we will partner with you to understand the needs of your business aligned to the structure of your team versus future state. We believe that a healthy, driven, competent People team will motivate, drive and care for your business.
Executive Coaching
At The Ubuntu Partnership, we truly understand that each individual holds the potential to achieve incredible success in their personal and professional lives. With nearly two decades of experience in leadership development, business strategy, and mentoring, we're here to offer a supportive environment where you will be challenged to step out of your comfort zone to enable growth. Our unique blend of services is thoughtfully designed to empower, guide, and challenge you on your journey of growth and transformation. We genuinely care about your success and are committed to walking alongside you every step of the way, setting us apart from other coaching and mentoring services.
Coaching:
Whether it’s business or personal coaching you’re after, we partner with you to unlock your potential with coaching that reflects your unique vision. We create the space to ask the uncomfortable questions, where you get to be your unique self, challenged to think differently and address the change you didn’t know you needed.
Our coaching focuses on practical, actionable strategies, fostering tangible development, and mastering the challenges of growth. Whether you aim to scale your business, enhance your leadership style, or tackle complex decisions, we collaborate to identify and push through what may be blocking your growth, developing the skillset you need to achieve your goals.
Together, we'll build your confidence, cultivate resilience, and unlock your full potential so you can truly thrive in all areas of your life.
Mentoring:
Mentorship is a powerful resource that equips HR and People professionals with the wisdom and experiences necessary to navigate their journeys confidently and effectively. Our mentoring services deliver expert guidance and insights honed through years of leadership and personnel development. Whether you find yourself at a critical turning point in your career or simply seek reliable advice, our mentorship offers the essential support to empower you to make informed decisions and embrace new perspectives.
