Positive Qualities

London

We are often called in where a business has significant challenges and have previously worked with other organisations who have failed to deliver the results required. One organisation we worked with had brought in three consultancies over the last 5 years and each time the consultants failed to listen to the needs of the organisation and tried to implement strategies they wanted to without addressing or agreeing on the objectives required. We bring in fresh perspective as our direct approach enables us to get to the route of the challenges and as we collect evidence, we have lots of conversations and observations to support our findings. Everything we do is in collaboration with the Leadership Team and their staff and this works as we have been where they are in our previous careers so we have empathy and understanding of how challenging and hard all of this can be for the Leadership Team and the people within the business. Our Story I set up Positive Qualities because I was bullied out of my last corporate job and I had a strong desire to make workplaces better. Workplaces where people could come to work and share ideas and feel safe and valued for their contribution and they never need to dim their light because they feel they haven’t got a voice. I started Positive Qualities because I felt there was a real need for it in business. The W.O.W Programme can help a business reach new targets, increase sales or achieve better customer and staff satisfaction. The W.O.W programme depends on communication, trust and belief. It’s very interactive, high energy and generates a feeling of belonging. It’s about building employee engagement, so employees feel physically, intellectually and emotionally attached to their work. We’re good at handling challenging situations and frequently we find the best results come from the most negative people,” W.O.W.programme is a business improvement programme and a process which is measurable and always has significant results. It empowers people and creates positive futures. I started by pitching to hotels I stayed in and the manufacturers of the cars I drove. I just felt compelled to start a company which I believed would be needed by these customers.

“Research conducted by the Royal Mail concludes that spelling mistakes and poor grammar cost UK businesses more than £700 million a year, the Cabinet Office puts the figure even higher at £10 billion” 40% of British companies feel that the lack of literacy amongst their employers, including graduates, is costing them money. Hours are wasted ploughing through confused and confusiing documents. And even worse, business is lost through poorly written proposals and sales pitches. At Verve Training, we believe that our business writing courses provide a powerful solution to this problem. Our clients come from every sector and include major organisations and corporations such as the NHS, Virgin, and BAE Systems Detica; and also smaller niche companies and groups such as Global Maritime and the General Dental Council.

Each course provides a unique level of practical training which carefully reinforces the theory of each module with writing exercises. We offer both group courses and one-to-one coaching.

Established in 2015, Arran Street East is a craft and design studio based in the markets area of Dublin city centre, where we make pottery and woven homewares to our own functional designs. We have a studio shop and we teach craft skills in Dublin and in Schull in West Cork. We use traditional crafting techniques to make and teach our craft, throwing on pottery wheels (pottery workshops), and weaving on looms and frame looms (weaving workshops). Each piece is individually made by hand using locally inspired colours and materials, and while our pottery and textiles are designed and made to mix and match, no two items are exactly the same. Shop Ceramics. Shop Textiles. We enjoy sharing our handcrafting skills through our year-round workshops and courses, and look forward to welcoming you to our studio shop and workshops.
