From Class Room to Board Room
Business Psyche
Business Psyche combines psychological expertise and business coaching to enhance the smooth transition of transferable skills from education to world of business, and to hone decision making and communication in organizations
What We Offer
We offer a range of bespoke training opportunities focusing on making graduates more employable through recognition and development of transferable skills for the world of work, skilling up new graduates to develop viable business plans and strategies, and improving the communication and decision making in organizations.
For Universities
Employability is now top of the agenda for Higher Education in the UK, featuring in University league tables, and providing a key criterion used by prospective students to choose a University. In order to maximize employability, it is critical to train students across disciplines to:
- recognize and package the skills they are learning (discipline specific and transferable)
- consider how their skills may be used by future employers outside their disciplines
- learn how to present their skills to non-academic (and business) audiences
- learn how to write business plans, including time and cost projections
Business Psyche provides a bespoke, intensive one-day workshop for students in order to aid them to recognize and package the skills they have for non-academic audiences, understand the value of the skills they have been learning, and to see how they might apply those skills to add value in a business context.
We also provide a bespoke workshop for academics in skills packaging and presentation to business audiences.
If you'd like to know more please get in touch.
