Developing Engaging Leaders through our innovative mini TV-drama 'In Good Company'
This online programme uses our ten-episode mini TV-drama series called 'In Good Company', written by a BAFTA nominated screenwriter and follows the story of a fictitious company, Emerson Software Solutions. The characters might be fictional, but the science is real. Using real life scenarios, we will take you on a journey of personal development. Through observation and insights following the team dynamics at Emerson Software Solutions, we see the pitfalls and problems that can impede performance, and show how engaged leaders can impact upon their own performance, their teams’ performance and ultimately, amazing customer service.
We’ve enlisted eminent experts in the field of behavioural psychology to comment on the action, and underpin the drama with neuroscience and psychology. Each episode adds more to the developing story and includes a mix of office drama and professional commentary.
The programme focuses on the following areas:
Me at My Best – improving your own performance by focusing on your own needs, health and wellbeing to minimise stress at work
My Team at Their Best – deepening relationships with our teams to create inclusive and trusting environments
The Best Customer Service – applying what we know about employee engagement to improve the customer experience

Understand how what we eat, impacts on our mood and subsequent behaviours, as well as the need for adequate sleep for us to perform at our best. The Health Audit is a downloadable resource allowing you to reflect on areas that will drive greater focus, concentration and performance.
Welcome to the second episode of 'In Good Company', where we join the team to see what's been going on. Steve looks like he wants to provide his team with some inspiration to get results. Let's see how he get's on. Workbook 1 in the resource area of section 1 accompanies this episode.
Understand how we all have needs in the way we work and how when these are not met, this can lead to stress.
This is an additional module focusing on Reflective Practice. It might sound like a strange topic, but when do we really get time to think and reflect? When we do get time, how do we stop our mind from wondering? To help, we have attached an editable, downloadable Digital Reflective Journal PDF. Please download this ready for the episode.
Is Steve facing into learning more about how to be an engaging leader? Let's join the team to find out more.
Understand how empowering your team will drive greater trust. There is an accompanying resource called the A3 Team Road Map. Download this and print this out. Although it's designed in A3 size, adjust your printer settings to print it in A4, and complete as much as you can, to help you understand how well you know your team, how well you care for them, and how well you value them. Be really honest when completing it. Use Workbook 2 to help - for example, in the column rating the relationship out of 10, how many questions could you answer about your team from the workbook, and use this as a guide.
Complete the action plan accompanying the document, allowing you to focus your attention on the team members identified as requiring greater support.
Understand how concept of knowing, caring for, and valuing your team can be applied to customers to improve customer relationships. In Workbook 3, you will read about aspects that feed into great customer experiences. Use the resource called Customer Road Map, to think about the experience of your customers and how you can improve this.
