We’re proud of our client relationships. We work across a wide range of industries
and settings to support individuals, teams and whole organisations to be more agile, adaptable and successful. We want to make a lasting impact with the individuals, teams and organisations we work with.
Take a look at some of the work we have done for our clients and what they say about how we have helped.
CALA Homes
ACP supported CALA Homes in several ways to assist with strengthening and growing the leadership capabilities within the organisation by providing a range of Executive Development and Coaching programmes for senior leaders and middle managers in the business.
The Result
“Over the last year, I have seen my Board take a more collective approach to problem solving and strategy setting within our business and I believe our work with ACP has been a contributing factor in this. Anita aided us in having more honest and more challenging conversations with each other, which was very positive for us as a Leadership team. Anita quickly gained the trust of the team and was an effective facilitator at Board Director level, adapting the delivery to the tangible business challenges we were experiencing at the time.”
Nick Twine, Former Regional Chairman
The Result
“ACP has enabled us to really explore the use of Insights Discovery to ensure we get the best out of people, both individually and as a team. They have helped us achieve a common methodology and language across the organisation, which has made us more effective as a business.
We choose ACP because whatever they deliver, they deliver with passion and integrity. We have always received positive feedback from our staff about ACP and what they have delivered. If you are looking for someone to challenge your thinking and deliver a professional and engaging service, then choose ACP.”
Natalie Hayesmore, HR People & Organisational Growth
The Result
"Anita facilitated group coaching sessions over a period of a year with myself and colleagues. I feel very privileged to have been part of this experience as Anita was so skilled in navigating us as a team to support and challenge each other, provide empathy and feedback to us as we navigated some tough leadership challenges in a fast paced culture. This facilitated coaching helped us to form strong bonds in work that continue to date and I would recommend Anita to any teams or individual who want to accelerate their own leadership experience."

Crawley Borough Council
ACP was awarded the opportunity to design and deliver a highly practical leadership development solution for Crawley Borough Councill, one which focused on equipping their third tier middle managers to lead and manage teams and services through times of radical change and business transformation.
“The Leading Through Transformation (LTT) programme was an innovative programme that supported the development of our middle management group against a back drop of huge change in the council. The LTT programme was specifically designed to build the skills and confidence of our managers in order to translate Crawley’s Transformation Programme and change agenda into effective action. Anita and her team have really helped to grow our managers into better leaders, bringing significant benefits to the council by strengthen their capacity and skills and to lead change.”

Puig
Puig invited ACP to provide the leadership development component for several of their high-profile talent programmes. These programmes aimed to develop the company’s emerging millennial talent into young leaders ready to take on senior management roles. ACP was also brought in to work with specific management teams from different regions to develop their cohesion, alignment and effectiveness.
The Result
“ACP’s development programmes are relevant, impactful and highly tailored. They
are delivered in a practical, dynamic, enjoyable way, and the environment of trust
created in the sessions enables participants to get to the heart of their challenges
with the support of their peers. Anita Pemberton is very adept at rapidly assimilating
the culture within which she is working. She cuts through to where the problems lie,
and does so without making people feel uncomfortable.
It is clear that the individuals and teams ACP have worked with now have a clearer
understanding of the challenges they face, and are equipped with a language and a
strategy to meet them.”
Strategic Training Manager, Puig
"We recently partnered with ACP to deliver our Insights team away days. The two sessions were incredibly useful to help the team come together and improve their understanding of each other. Steve Robinson is a highly engaging facilitator and his style appeals to people at all work levels. We have a wide variety of characters in our team and Steve adjusted the pace and flow during the day so that we were able to move at the pace we wanted. His honesty and approach to applying the model, how he kept the day moving, allowed people to speak up and also reflect."
