Permanent TSB is Ireland’s longest established Financial Services Provider and can trace its roots back to 1816. With over 2,000 staff and 1.1million customers, it is a significant provider of services to the retail market. With the launch of the Bank’s new ‘Vision and Values’ in 2017, the bank had an opportunity to build a culture of high-performance in a trusted and socially responsible way.

This would allow them to retain their most talented people, strengthen the bank commercially and grow market share. Critical to this was the ability of leaders across the organisation to engage in powerful conversations in a variety of situations including:

  • Performance Conversations
  • Coaching Conversations
  • Development Conversations
  • Career Conversations

Our Approach

Given the vast experience of people leaders in the Bank, it was critical that this programme was designed with a fresh perspective to learning.

We partnered with the team in Permanent TSB to design, develop and deliver a group-wide development offering that was designed to:

  • Raise people leadership capability across the bank
  • Elevate the quality of critical conversations for all levels of people leaders
  • Embed the group vision and values at all levels
  • Drive performance across the group

Partnering with the Permanent TSB Learning and Talent Team, we designed and delivered a development programme that included:

  • A two-day immersive “Leadership Laboratory” with an emphasis on learning through practice
  • Expert corporate role players
  • Live video analysis and peer feedback
  • Comprehensive pre and post workshop blended learning elements

Permanent TSB Programme Participant
 
 

This is the best leadership development offering I have attended over my 30-year career in Permanent TSB. I found this programme unique in its focus on practical application over theory. The opportunity to practice these skills in such a critical yet supportive environment is not something I’ve had before. It was extremely valuable and I will ensure my senior management team attend this as a priority.

Impact

Based on our experience and the latest research on evaluation and learning transfer, we create powerful insights for our clients covering participants’ mindset, confidence and their intent to transfer new capabilities back to their individual role.

The impact of this programme is already being felt across the Bank. The language of the programme has been adopted and is now in regular use, performance conversations are being held more regularly and are now more effective and there is already some evidence that its impact is being felt through the engagement surveys.
