The Potential
A safe and contained working environment fosters trust, confidence and openness, which in turn enhance performance and reduce stress. Everyday agreements on agendas, process and outcomes, facilitate fast, cohesive turnaround. People are valued and satisfied; they want to come to work. They bring natural participation and outstanding contribution simply from being seen, heard and fully appreciated.
The success of the organisation is contingent upon the qualities and experience of the individuals who make it up. Nurturing the resource in diversity creates sustainability.
Busyness and preoccupations stifle clarity. A still mind is objective, purposeful and free to innovate and transform the toughest situations. By gently challenging habitual ways of thinking, the mind of the strategist is liberated.
Our values determine how we operate. And they work for us or against us. Positive work values inspire and serve the individual. When freely applied, shared and aligned with a common objective, the outcome is unprecedented performance. The values that drive destructive rivalry, blame, anger and conflict represent lost joy and potential.
Acting from a position of choice, people act with responsibility, authority, security, self-direction and self-esteem. The outcome is people achieving extraordinary results.

"The two day SpiritWorks "Competent Practitioners" course for me was
like an oasis in the desert of life in an "Not So Spirited Workplace". It was such a joy to be with likeminded people and to share dreams, values and visions we all had. Everyone was very supportive. There were three people from SpiritWorks and seven participants like myself eager to learn the secrets of transforming the workplace into a enriching and spiritual landscape. The SpritWorks team had put all their philosophy into practice and created a wonderful environment which felt very personal to me and I know that other participants felt the same way.
It was also a place to speak your truth, face your fears and awaken your spirit. I'd read Georgeanne's book "The Spirited Business" and had been inspired but it hadn't prepared me for the powerful experience this course gave me. There were tears and laughter in copious amounts over the two days which came to an end too soon, but left me feeling full of enthusiasm and optimism for the next steps in my own development.
The SpiritWorks philosophy gave me confidence to return to the workplace with the knowledge that I don't have to compromise my values or silence my own voice. In both the SpiritWorks team, and the other participants on the course, I have found a network of kindred spirits for when I need some support or honest feedback. As I struggled to fit everything in my rucksack before leaving, I noticed that I seemed to be taking much more home than what I came with - which to me perfectly sums up the two days".
Maria Garner, Grimsby
"One of the best courses I've been on. It brings you back to the heart of what is important in business life, reaffirms your desire to achieve, and confounds with its simplicity and truth. The welcome is warm, the energy high, and the transformation sustained. I feel inspired and motivated to bring better practices into my working world and to share the excitement with my colleagues."
Anita Walker, EEF-South
