Press Release Body = Fordwich, UK - Beyond Potential, a leader in talent development
services, announces its new courses for 2006 designed to influence the results,
performance and competitiveness of UK businesses. Beyond Potential provides services
to clients that range from coaching to course training and from strategy development
to HR process consultancy. Beyond Potential aims to help make its clients' managers
and their management teams more inspired, motivated and skilled than the
competition. Details of the new courses for 2006 can be found at:

Talent Development for Businesses

Beyond Potential believes the competitive nature of modern business requires that
management teams have the full range of techniques and skills to allow them meet
challenging market conditions. "Management teams need to be inspired and motivated,"
explains Robin Whittington, the founder of Beyond Potential, "but those who lead,
manage others and control work need to be highly skilled as well." The focus of
Beyond Potential's courses is on leadership and performance, with the intention of
releasing reserves of potential which is often frustrated by the routine of working
environments.

Performance Leadership

By planning an integrated "talent development" approach Beyond Potential seeks to
give managers a crucial edge in helping to develop their performance leadership
qualities. Robin describes the benefits of the process, "from the pre-recruitment
stage, right through to realising the potential of your most valuable and talented
people you will be able to secure a return from the investments you are making."
Beyond Potential performance leadership courses also help managers to understand the
strategies required to retain talented people, and how to realise their full
potential. "Financial numbers are critical to the business," says Robin, "but it is
the contribution of people in the organisation that will always have the biggest
influence on results, performance and competitiveness."

Training and Management Development (http://www.beyondpotential.co.uk/training.html)

So much depends on the performance, skill and attitudes of a management team. An
organisation may have the natural talent available to it, and have recruited some
good managers, but the crucial qualities of attitude, leadership skills and
knowledge may be lacking. "In order to deliver results that meet the standards and
demands of fast moving markets, leadership competency is essential in triumphing
over a range of work challenges," explains Robin. Beyond Potential offers companies
the chance to create career and personal development plans for professionals in any
organisation, whether they are in management positions with staff responsibilities
or not.

All management development and leadership training is customised and tailored to
suit client needs. Performance and productivity improvement strategies for teams and
individuals are prominent in the new program for 2006. The Beyond Potential method
focuses on leadership competency in the context of business needs and integrates
with its specific culture and values, to increase the effectiveness of leadership
training courses.

Talent Management Strategies (http://www.beyondpotential.co.uk/talent.html)

There is little argument about the need to find and grow the talented people who
will determine the success of any enterprise, be it commercial or a public service
organisation. There are several stages when adopting a business strategy which
supports a culture where truly talented people are encouraged and motivated to add
the most value to the business. "Selecting, engaging and retaining talented people
does not happen by accident," explains Robin. "It must be carefully planned and
resourced to be effective." For example the latest techniques in web based
recruiting are able to save significant amounts of time and money thereby promoting
efficiencies and consistency in selection processes. Beyond Potential offers its
clients the support they need in building an effective talent development strategy
and in creating a sustainable HR approach to nurturing talent for high performing
businesses.

Coaching (http://www.beyondpotential.co.uk/coaching.html)

More and more management coaching involves the provision of solutions which cannot
be achieved by group training. A one to one or team coach approach is often the key
to realising business and personal goals. The process stimulates individuals or
groups to generate and plan for their own solutions and provides them with the
motivation to act. Beyond Potential provides a range of services in this area with
experienced coaches including: business coaching; communications coaching including
key presentation preparation; career management coaching. Within the coaching clinic
course Beyond Potential provides training for directors, managers and supervisors to
use coaching techniques themselves; in addition coaching is offered for those
experiencing redundancy to support their adjustment and the job search process.

Coaching and Career Management

Beyond Potential provides support coaching for individuals facing major career
challenges. "There are occasions in an individual's career when either a major
decision has to be made or a career crisis such as redundancy takes them by complete
surprise," explains Robin. "It is helpful to have an independent coach to work with
individual as they come to terms with a new and often unexpected situation." Beyond
Potential coaches have the skills to challenge and to broaden people's thinking,
thereby helping to prepare an action strategy which instils motivation, creative
thinking and an increasingly positive approach. The benefits of the Beyond Potential
approach are mainly found in the re-establishment of self confidence and self
awareness. The individual develops a good understanding of their own capability
relative to a wide variety of options and opportunities. The Beyond Potential
method ensures that the whole impetus comes from the individual being coached and
not the coach, who acts as the process and ideas stimulator and facilitator.

Courses and Development Programmes for 2006

Beyond Potential is now completing its third year of supporting the talent
development needs of its customers. Building on success and experience it has
established 4 key course focus areas. These include: 1) Talent Development processes

help less experienced and newer managers to be more effective in their daily work;
4) performance management processes, training and innovation. The customisation and
preparation of new courses will continue unchanged from previous years.
