We are Folks Talent

Creative management, leadership and team development

We exist to demystify what being a good leader is, by educating and inspiring managers and leaders to be more human at work. Our philosophy is simple: you don’t build businesses, you build people. By focusing on team development, we help you cultivate your only sustainable competitive advantage, the human beings who make the work happen.

This is what we do

Inspirational Leadership and Management

A variety of expertise and proven development experiences help us meet your needs, tailoring to your environment, management challenges, style, and culture.

Building High Performing Teams

We specialise in simplifying this complex environment, not achieved through organisational structure, but by creating teams that feel connected and accountable.

Coaching with Impact

Our coaches and practices ensure that every person embarking on a programme with us achieves real and lasting positive change.

Solution Design

We invest in understanding what problems exist for our clients so we can walk every step with them to deliver consultation that leads to a solution that truly works.

To equip Webfleet's Scrum Masters with the leadership depth to drive high performance, we delivered an immersive virtual programme structured as a series of ‘Sprints.’ Mirroring their own agile environment, we created short learning bursts, guided action learning sets, and ‘Retrospectives’ to transform Scrum Masters into self-aware, engaging leaders. This approach moved them beyond process facilitation and into creative management, empowering them to build teams who take accountability, communicate with clarity and authenticity, face into challenging conversations and deliver collective results.

Leadership Development

To support Bromford Housing Group's ambitious growth, we designed an agile career development programme that equipped talent at all levels to step up and become the organisation’s primary competitive advantage. The experience featured a high-energy architecture, moving from a motivational "Kick-off" to a celebratory "Kick-down", that combined varied learning styles with active line-manager coaching to ensure real-world application. The resulting growth mindset and culture of psychological safety delivered tangible results - improved Great Place to Work scores, increased accountability, and a proactive workforce fully aligned to deliver the company's long-term strategy.

Talent Development

We developed an integrated programme for ASICS, designed to transition new managers from individual contributors to effective leaders. Over a five-to-six-month journey, we combined highly personalised coaching with intensive development modules to build management capability and break down organisational silos. By acting as an extension of the ASICS team, we facilitated a collaborative environment that strengthened internal networks and improved cross-functional relationships. This high-impact approach has since become the organisation’s foundation programme, transforming their management layer into a sustainable competitive advantage.
