ELITE LEADERSHIP. TEAM PERFORMANCE. CORPORATE BEHAVIOUR.
welcome to soke performance
our work is informed by the systemic approach. we believe that each individual is one of many parts influenced by environment, family, relationships, background and all other elements that factor into their lives. it is a modality that soke performance has found to be particularly effective when working with organisations aiming to improve the health and performance of their individual team members, whilst also serving the broader needs of the company.
the systemic approach is a means by which to introduce proactive, preventative, as well as reactive, solutions into organisations. working with individuals in the context of a whole, rather than in isolation, and always having their “bigger picture” within our sights, enables a more efficient and effective route to delivering whole-system change whilst meeting their personal objectives.
soke performance assesses the health, wellbeing and ability to perform of individuals, teams and organisations by using a tiered system, categorising the client into the relevant tier where we can focus on addressing the immediate opportunities and concerns. in order to be effective at the top tier, we aim to ensure the foundations for sustained growth and development are in place.
elite
the soke’s elite programme is designed to prepare already high-performing individuals for a new phase of accomplishment, whether through professional achievements and/or human challenges and endeavours. we combine psychology, coaching, science and data to challenge limitations of thinking or performance, equipping individuals in business, sport and entertainment with an even greater capacity to achieve, inspire and lead with efficiency, effectiveness and emotional intelligence.
leadership is the accomplishment of a goal through the direction of human assistants. the one who successfully marshals their human collaborators to achieve particular ends is a leader. a great leader is one who can do so day after day, and year after year, in a wide variety of circumstances.
team
high performance in teams is an aspiration of any leader - we all know what it feels like when the results far outweigh what each individual could achieve on their own.
designed through the collaboration of our psychological and human behavioural experts, the soke’s team programmes are proven to elevate that performance to its maximum potential, building mental fitness and emotional agility into every day team behaviours that can sustain performance and build in innate ability to seize opportunity.
we work with groups who have come together organically, those designed to work in synergy in common pursuit of a short-term shared goal, as well ones that have resulted through mergers & acquisitions and seek to achieve success collaboratively.
corporate
workplace wellbeing relates to all areas of a person’s working life and is a key factor in determining an organisation’s long-term effectiveness. the emotional climate of a workplace affects the company’s overall sense of wellbeing and the workers’ ability to function well and do their best at work. the way we feel at work has a big impact on our performance, without good psychological and physical health, humans cannot think, learn or create.
the soke partners with corporate clients to understand their existing culture, their aspirations and the makeup of their people. this is in order to create bespoke solutions designed to positively impact not just the wellbeing of its talent, but to create sustainable brand environments with business and psychological prosperity at their heart.
