In an ever changing and competitive environment, FMI profiler 360 provides the opportunity to evaluate strengths and opportunities. This allows managers to focus their personal development into areas to gain maximum benefit. Knowledge Bank The Frontline Management Institute can provide a customised FMI Knowledge Bank service to organisations to record and identify summaries of workplace improvement projects. One example recorded over $100,000,000 in return to an FMI client over a four year period. The Knowledge Bank is supplied to the organisation for access on the organisation s intranet. Other managers in the organisation can then access details of the improvements made and so leverage these improvements throughout the organisation. This is particularly useful for national and international clients such as BOC and Lend Lease. The Knowledge Bank also records the value of the project work carried out as part of a training program as signed off by participants line managers. Change Maker action plans Change Maker action plans provide the structure for participants to plan for, implement and review change.

11 COACHING AND MENTORING SERVICES The Frontline Management Institute s Coaching and Mentoring Centre provides organisations and individuals with a range of coaching services, training courses for management coaches and mentors, management qualifications, and consulting services. These management coaching and mentoring services enhance the skills of managers and leaders at all levels of your organisation. COACHING SERVICES Coaching is one of the most powerful ways to develop leadership and management capabilities. The Frontline Management Institute (FMI) coaching services in leadership and management are designed for individual leaders and managers to help develop strengths in the specific areas that are most important for the person and their work. Coaching helps improve both performance and productivity. It ensures that development is embedded into actual workplace practice. FMI coaches are experienced as leaders and managers themselves and help people with practical and effective coaching to enhance their abilities as leaders and managers. There are two choices for FMI coaching: FMI Frontline Coaching FMI Leadership and Management Coaching Frontline Coaching FMI Frontline Coaching is an integral addition as a learning support for a structured leadership or management course or program. It is an addition to any FMI management program from a one day focused course to an extended management development program. It is also available as a support for FMI Open Learning Courses. The coaching is designed specifically to help clients apply what has been learned either through FMI ChangeMaker Action Plans or as FMI Assessment support. A catalogue of FMI Courses and Programs is available to help coaches select the most appropriate coaching areas for themselves. FMI Frontline Coaching is available for all Frontline Management levels from supervisors up to middle managers. FMI Frontline Coaching is available in 30 minute blocks of phone or Skype Coaching for individuals. It is also possible to book blocks of day or half day coaching sessions where an organisation has a group of people to be coached. Client reporting services and client review meetings are available if required. Leadership and Management Coaching FMI Leadership and Management Coaching is commissioned for a specific development purpose and individually tailored. This choice of coaching focuses on interventions to enhance performance in specific areas such a people management skills, operational planning or time management. Typically the intervention is to work specifically on issues or opportunities that have been already identified. Usually this type of coaching is planned on a monthly basis and may have a mix of face to face and phone or Skype interventions. It is normal to start with a planned series of coaching over an initial period of about four to six months. Distance and international clients can use phone and Skype coaching for contact with their FMI coach. Client reporting services and client review meetings are also available with this type of coaching. MENTORING PROGRAMS Mentoring is an important component of a successful development program. FMI can work with organisations to develop mentoring programs designed to support other areas of professional development. We have programs to develop mentors and to introduce mentees to mentoring. We also have programs and/or consultancy services for organisations that are planning to set up mentoring programs. We have carried out such programs for a variety of clients ranging from engineering to government. Page 9

13 CONSULTING FOR LEADERSHIP AND PERFORMANCE Since 1998 FMI has been delivering consulting services to assist organisations to improve leadership and management performance and productivity. Drawing on extensive experience developing customised solutions, we are able to deliver services that reach far beyond just training to designing and integrating learning and development programs that help to embed corporate culture. Our expert team is available for a range of consulting services. Our clients include international corporate organisations such as Zoetis, Westpac and Lend Lease as well as specialised organizations such as Bottega Veneta, Grosvenor Engineering, John Holland Group and NRMA. In the government and community sector we ve worked closely with organisations such as the Australian Communications and Media Authority (ACMA), WorkCover NSW and Sunnyhaven. Our work primarily focuses on new development projects. Our engagements typically last between two to six months often with ongoing follow up and delivery of supporting programs. FMI PHILOSOPHY Our philosophy is based around FMI s purpose which is to Develop leaders who drive positive change. We focus on developing leadership and management skills within the organisation to drive through positive change and improvement. Our work is carried out in partnership with clients. We usually aim to transfer skills and capabilities to clients where this is appropriate. WHAT WE DO We have carried out a wide range of consulting projects with many clients in areas such as people management, performance improvement, innovation, productivity and customer service levels. The examples given below are illustrations of specific consulting interventions we have carried out with a few of our hundreds of clients. The consulting is normally followed up by further ongoing development work. STRATEGY DEVELOPMENT A large international shipping company provides ship s services to fleets from ports all around Australia. The company also has a large range of products that can be purchased by the ships while in port. In order to increase sales levels and profitability the strategy was developed to integrate promotion of product sales and marketing to customers into the development of leadership capabilities for port managers. CHANGE MANAGEMENT One of the largest pharmaceutical companies launched a separate specialist area as a new company. As the company is developing new finance systems that will improve performance we designed interventions that assist the finance team to improve time management, continuous improvement and project management to help implement the change of systems and raise productivity levels. ANALYSIS AND PLANNING An international construction company regularly recruited graduates every year to develop as project engineers, designers and other specialist roles. The training had previously been provided internally on a rather ad hoc basis with some external providers used. Local states had variations in the way they delivered training. Assessment against competency standards was not carried out. Working over a period of 8 months we partnered with the client to carry out a thorough needs analysis and design an integrated three year graduate management development program. This led to a single qualification and was integrated and clearly structured across the region. Page 11

14 SYSTEMS DESIGN We regularly develop new tools which can be integrated into a program to measure skill, knowledge and competency development. Working to develop the entire management team of an engineering organisation over two years we integrated management systems previously developed internally by the client with nationally recognised competencies to provide an integrated development package tailored to the specific systems used by the client. CUSTOMER SERVICE An international luxury leather goods company selling items such as handbags required development of managers to enhance people management in the customer service area. We designed a program suited to the specific requirements of high end luxury retailing. CULTURE A national government organisation wished to enhance its people culture through introducing a new mentoring program. Through consultation we helped them review and refine proposed mentoring systems and launch the program. Documentation was prepared and training provided for both mentors and mentees. An international bank wanted to promote its wellbeing program through provision of information on time management to achieve work life balance. We consulted and designed a program that matched the organisational working culture and delivered it across all areas nationally. REVIEW AND EVALUATION An international gas company used our services to develop its entire middle management and supervisory team across Australia and New Zealand. As part of the program we introduced a range of improvement projects carried out by participants. We consulted on ways to review and evaluate the outcomes and designed a system of recording dollar value return on investment achieved through the program. Over four years we measured a return exceeding one hundred million dollars. In addition the improvements were logged on a central database so the details could be accessed in all regions and further leverage gained by repeating similar projects in other geographic locations.
