What We Do

"Imagine being in a place with your best friends, it is safe, you are listened to and you are accepted.

Now imagine being in a place of work with your best friends, you are welcomed, you are recognised and you are strengthened.

Then imagine these best friends unlock your potential to find an answer in your personal and professional life. They will support you and they will encourage you.

Finally imagine these best friends hold the knowledge of a world of best friends all put together, and you have Moira Siddons and Gill Avery.

That is who they are, and that's what they do"

Jane Sebburn, June 2010

We offer The Next Level programme to WOMEN, (and now MEN) mostly sponsored by their organisations, who wish to deepen the contribution they make to their business and the world. We also offer bespoke versions of the programme to businesses who are building their platform for future success.

The Next Level works by focussing on what you already do, and do well - unlike most development processes that are aimed at filling gaps in performance.

Through a variety of methods which are designed to meet your specific learning and career goals, we:

Help you grow your awareness of your strengths in action
Use these strengths in both your work and personal life
Support you in designing how you bring these to specific work situation
Develop your ability to ‘divine’ the strengths in others and to help them bring these beneficially to your business.

Women we have worked with have found that their ‘next level’ takes many forms including:

Promotion to the board, to lead the company’s change and culture programme

New clarity for an entrepreneur to profitably expand her own business

The establishment of a forum for mentoring and sharing her wealth of knowledge and experience by an industry senior

Reassessing and changing the relationship between an individual and her employer, leading to greater ease and clarity in making effective business and career decisions

Honouring the demands of work, family, and investment in one’s self, and creating a new equilibrium between these different needs.

How We Work

Characteristic of how we work is that we are spontaneous and creative in finding ways to support each person in following their unique goal focus. We design in the moment to surface and release the talent of each other.

One of our participants writes: “I continue to be astonished at what emerges. I have enjoyed the programme so much and it has been enormously useful to me this year. The combination of skills that you both bring is so powerful and yet at the same time the atmosphere is both relaxing and freeing.”

A Little About Us and Our Own Development

Over the past 30 years our learning paths have brought us to research, develop and share with others, ground breaking development methodologies that support businesses in growing successfully, and people in bringing their unique strengths to the world.

Foremost in these approaches have been the systems-centred approaches of Consulting People Limited’s (CPL) Double Loop Learning, and Organisational Constellations.

In many roles, we have led, developed, coached, managed, advised and consulted to people at Board and other levels, and have helped them achieve the results they want for themselves and their businesses – often in strategically critical and politically sensitive situations.

We now offer you the chance to join us on a journey to discover and refine your unique gifts and find practical, grounded ways of bringing these effectively to your business. You will also develop your ability to do the same for others in your business and wider life.
