Here’s the penultimate post in our series of postings to mark the countdown to our 10th Anniversary on 23rd October: Ten Years – Ten Stories!
At Distinctive People, a key to our success is working in partnership with other great organisations, and this week we are highlighting one of these partnerships – Matthew Syed Consulting.
Distinctive People were one of the first Accredited Partners of Matthew Syed Consulting in the UK, and over the years we have successfully utilised their brilliant Mindset Advantage psychometric tool with a huge number of clients in Recruitment, Leadership Development and Culture change activity – who all love it!
A great business partnership is built on a foundation of trust, where both parties feel confident in each other’s integrity and intentions. Openness and transparency are essential for clear communication, reducing misunderstandings and fostering mutual respect. Sharing good practices not only strengthens the partnership but also drives continuous improvement. A mutual commitment to high standards ensures quality and reliability in every aspect of the collaboration. Finally, flexibility allows partners to adapt to changing circumstances, overcome challenges, and grow together. These elements combined create a resilient, productive, and lasting business relationship.
Our enduring partnership with Matthew Syed Consulting is based on all the above, and we were delighted to contribute to their recent webinar in discussion with Matthew Syed focused on the role of psychological safety in driving high performing teams.
