N Ireland Business Awards 2017

24 SME NEWS / Northern Ireland Business Awards 2017 , Rapid Change Consultancy is a boutique consultancy of professional and experienced coaches, dedicated to providing exceptional service to its clients. We invited Founder Anne Dargan to tell us more. Rapid Change Consultancy Founded by Anne after a 25-year career as a business change leader and internal coach/ consultant, Rapid Change Consultancy has since flourished, drawing on the expertise Anne acquired during her previous role to ensure excellence for clients. The consultancy provides people centric services such as leadership/executive coaching, consultancy on change management and leadership development to support individual, team and organisational effectiveness. Thanks to Anne’s background working for a global telecommunications firm, her consultancy specialises in supporting IT, engineering, law, accountancy firms, and financial services firms. Whatever sector they are based in, Anne and her team work hard to ensure that they have the tools to achieve a real, positive change, as she highlights. “At Rapid Change Consultancy, we believe that our role is to support our clients to enjoy fulfilment in both their personal and professional lives. Unfortunately, some surveys tell us that up to 87% of people go to jobs they hate. “Drawing on my own personal experience, I hope to change this, by supporting leaders to become the best version of themselves and equipping them with the skills and know how to engage and empower their people, and helping them align their teams. Leaders themselves find work less stressful and more rewarding and in turn they would enable their teams and employees to come to work with a spring in their step thanks to our innovative techniques. Our flagship product is for leaders who want to get the best from their team, and we also offer an innovative, women only leadership programme.” Overall, coaching is a growing business worldwide, as the latest reports show that a third of the Fortune 500 are coaching their leaders and executives. As such, Anne and her team have a bright and exciting future ahead as they seek to build upon their current success and make Rapid Change Consultancy the go-to consultancy for business leaders, as she proudly concludes. “Looking ahead, we are keen to continue promoting our services and work with even more clients to ensure that future generations continue to feel the positive impact of our work.” Company: Rapid Change Consultancy Contact: Anne Dargan Email: [email protected] Address: 130 Ballynahinch Road, Dromore, Co.
