One part of RBS’s rehabilitation has been a re-set in terms of our culture and behaviours. And one part of that has been a focus on opportunity for all. I have been enthusiastic about supporting the better development of our cadre of senior women through ACCELERATE. And we have been delighted with the support and help from ABSTRACT. Thank you.

ACCELERATE Programme

At last a programme that takes the complexities of human judgement and decision making and makes it simple but so effective. The refreshing intelligent models allow delegates of all levels the courage and confidence to make the right calls at speed.

Critical Thinking Series

I thought this programme was excellent. As well as covering the theory and the neuroscience, we also had a lot of examples and practice in receiving and making decisions together with a toolkit and a number of frameworks and charts that are easy to remember and act upon right away.

Andy’s recent presentation at our Working capital Sales Leaders’ Conference was an absolute highlight. With extremely engaging examples from his unique personal experience, he helped us along our journey of interpreting personal and organisation purpose whilst keeping well and resilient through turbulence and change.

We’ve tried a number of different development interventions to support career development over the years, but none have had quite the response of ACCELERATE. A combination of the great content and the safe but challenging environment in the training room has made it one of our most impactful programmes, with 100% of our delegates reporting this will make a difference to both them personally and to the business. We’re so pleased with the results we’re now looking to extend our partnership and deliver some AMBITION programmes as well.

We’re on a culture change journey with ABSTRACT and we expect engagement scores to be far higher than in 2019. Midway through 2020, it’s fair to say 7IM feels like a dramatically different place, just ten months into the engagement programme.

Cultural Transformation Programme

The tools and techniques were incredibly useful, I can’t believe the way I was operating prior to this programme. I now feel fully empowered and the more I practice the more confident I will be with this process.

Critical Thinking Series

Modern day leadership requires new world thinking. This programme instils all of this whilst retaining traditional commercial objectives.

It may seem like an overstatement, but I have witnessed first-hand over the last three years how the connection with ABSTRACT has been life-changing.  I just want to make sure you truly understand the magnitude of the impact your work has.

The Chartered Banker Institute are delighted to work with ABSTRACT as part of our Lockdown Learning series. We’ve enjoyed a long relationship with ABSTRACT and are impressed by the expertise, clarity and knowledge they deliver.

Fantastic session on ‘How to Build Superior Confidence’, lots of useful tips on how to understand and overcome the challenges associated with confidence. Good level of theory supported by lots of practical examples. Thanks Mark Fryer, Sue Liburd MBE DL and all the team at ABSTRACT (UK and INTERNATIONAL) for delivering an inspiring masterclass.

Webinar Series

I like the commitment planner and accountability pods. This will take additional steps to ensure change happens as opposed to going on a training course and then falling back into bad practice because it is easy and habitual. “Practise makes permanent”.

Partnering with Abstract to help us develop the cultural competency of our leaders and managers has been transformational
