PURPOSEFUL PEOPLE

Digital transformation isn’t just about technology. Success or failure depends on your people and your culture. That’s why we focus on helping you to unlock the potential of your team.

Purposeful Relations uses professional development tools such as Global Alliance’s Global Capabilities Framework, DiSC® profiles and our own proprietary methodologies to analyse and audit your team.

The GA GC Framework is a global benchmark for public relations and communication capabilities. It is a powerful diagnostic tool that we use to assess and develop PR capabilities for individuals and teams.

DiSC® is a transformational tool which provides a robust model for understanding people leading to better workplaces and productivity.

Professional development and learning

We provide a broad range of professional development services both directly through our own team of expert trainers and learning facilitators and with third party training, professional qualifications and academic degree providers.
