Delivering lasting change is expensive – spending where it matters has never been more important??? With the end of the financial year imminent, the cost of change is on our minds more than ever. Change can be unpredictable and tricky to manage with 70% of all change initiatives failing. Costs are spiking, and it’s essential to take a step back and assess what areas can be controlled. We’re working with clients to support rebalancing project resources and capability – in turn, lowing costs. Grayce can help with: ????Economic Value:?Our Analysts are regularly used as a replacement for junior consultants and direct contractors. Each Analyst typically saves a project budget ￡91,850 per annum per Analyst deployed. ????Derisking knowledge leakage:?Ensure expensive change programmes successfully continue into BAU, with the option to?take Grayce Analysts into your permanent teams after 2 years. ????Flexing your workforce:?Alleviate project headcount fluctuation risk with?a flexible Grayce model that can be scaled up or down. ???Reducing training and development costs:?Leave training to us, with our refined Development Programme that’s accelerated over 1800 careers in change.

Inspiring the next generation of leaders??? Encouraging young people to think about careers allows them to identify their interests and strengths, set goals, and make informed decisions, alleviating some of the uncertainty and anxiety that can come with leaving education and entering the world of work. At Grayce, we are experts in launching graduate careers in change and transformation, but support needs to start at an earlier age. That’s why we partner with charities like Bookmark and Kori to help young people with literacy skills and support to set them up for a better future. This month, two of our talent experts, Heidi Knowles (MCIPD) and Selcybil Osman, visited a Co-op Academy, alongside other employers, talking to 11-15-year-olds to: ?? Understand their experiences and challenges ?? Educate on the career opportunities out there and trends in the market, with an emphasis on tech and AI ?? Raise awareness of what a development programme can do to accelerate their future careers post-university Heidi reflected: “A key takeaway for us was the stark reality of the complexity young people are facing in today's world of future work. We were also bowled over by the ambition, we met students who told us they wanted to be CEOs, doctors, pilots, teachers, scientists!” Let’s shape a better future together????Visit our website to learn more about how Grayce is setting up the next generation of leaders for success.
