CONSULTING AND PARTNERING

Lots of the work that I do at P'doiiing involves me working alongside HR and Learning & Development teams within businesses, exploring ideas and concepts to support them in delivering new initiatives or focus. It's about getting 'under the bonnet' of the business to truly understand the requirements, working as a seamless partner to support the wider internal team.

MENTORING FOR MANAGERS

Another service I have recently started to provide is working with managers to encourage ideas and support through mentoring. Taking time out to be listened to by someone outside of your business can be incredibly inspiring and therapeutic!

SOAR - Management Development Programme

Every business that I've worked within has always asked me to create a development programme for managers that provides the skills they need to manage themselves, their teams, and their work. Now I'm freelance I'm delighted to be able to share this with you.

About

About image
Starting my career with a global financial services organisation over 30 years ago I have 20 years’ experience specialising in Learning & Development across all business areas including non for profit and public sector. In January 2020 I became a freelance learning and development consultant.

My key areas of development and expertise include:-
  • Change management
  • Leadership & Development
  • Customer Service
  • Coaching & Mentoring
  • Call coaching
I have developed and delivered numerous programmes and short ½ day workshops in all of the above areas as well as working on more bespoke support and mentoring for individuals in management roles.

I am also currently working with a Gloucester based business as an associate delivering ILM Level 2, 3 and 4 qualifications in Customer Services, People & Wellbeing, Leadership & Management and Team Leading.

Core clients include Walls Ice Cream, Adey Engineering, Gardiners Footwear, Wildfowl & Wetlands Trust, Gloucestershire College, Cirencester Friendly Society, Alexandra Workwear and Dimensions Workwear.

I am happy to work with pre-devised programmes or work with business to support them in delivering a more bespoke development solution.

Testimonials

 I have known and worked with Martyn for five years. He is an experienced and very able trainer, who has the ability to empathise and work alongside delegates. He has excellent management knowledge, and comprehension of people and their concerns. He is able to respond quickly to individuals, amending his approach and style and his flexible approach benefits both the learner and the organisation. We continue to utilise Martyn and P’doiiing to deliver our Management Development programme, which receives excellent feedback and has helped to grow and develop our people as part of our organisational development. I wholeheartedly and unreservedly recommend his services – and his lemon drizzle cake is amazing too! 

YMCA Robin Hood Group: Pat Woodfield - Executive Group Director

 Martyn has been a valued associate of Gloucestershire College for many years. We were delighted when he set up his consultancy as it meant we were able to work with someone that truly understood the Further Education sector and the challenges that large organisations face when considering Learning and Development. Martyn has a unique style that is both engaging and challenging. He leaves no stone unturned when stretching and coaching participants and carries this off with a great sense of humour and genuine interest. It was very easy for us to handover two tiers of our management group into Martyn's capable hands for coaching and development. He worked in partnership with our exec team and delivered over and above what was expected. The impact of the training delivered this year is an increased level of confidence in our management group and we are looking forward to working with Martyn on the next phase of the programme. 

Gloucestershire College: Carly Rosser-Mayo - HR Director

 Martyn has been an absolute delight to work with. The training needs of the Society have been listened to and the sessions developed to align to our Mission, Vision and HEART values. The sessions have been of tremendous value. Staff feedback has confirmed Martyn is a brilliant trainer and staff have been engaged throughout the sessions. I look forward to working with P’doiiing on future training projects.
