Transforming the way you do business



We felt that Howard Scott, with his wealth of experience and knowledge using The Colour Works Insights Discovery Model, would offer procurement leaders valuable information and tools to transfer to their day-to-day working life, transforming the way they do business – to encourage outstanding results from their teams.

Networking

Procurement Heads leadership forums are designed with you in mind.

They are a great opportunity to network with like-minded professionals in the industry, gather market-leading information and discuss hot topics and best practices.

We usually spend the first half-hour of our forums getting to know everybody else in the room.

For this event, networking was essential. Howard asked the room to assign sections of the insights discovery model to those they had spoken with that morning.

Discussions

This particular style of forum offered plenty of opportunities to interact and get involved.

Regular discussions were encouraged between tables – about how to motivate and encourage individuals, how to inspire teams and to recognise strengths and weaknesses and how to utilise, develop and improve those. 

The Insights Discovery Model

Each attendee was asked to complete The Colour Works Insights Discovery Model prior to attending the forum, which generated a unique personality report.

At the end of the forum, each attendee was presented with their report, which outlined the individual’s key strengths and weaknesses, the value they bring to a team, management styles and decision-making skills.

The report also detailed areas in which the individual could develop, areas that can easily be overlooked.

Key takeaways

  • Howard used each report to discuss with attendees their individual management and leadership style
  • Attendees discovered how to improve their team’s performance, by helping build confidence levels – achieved by understanding themselves and their roles better
  • Finally, the session taught how to find engaging and practical ways to develop Procurement teams and create a more positive working culture
