THE SKILLS CHALLENGE – NATIONAL TRAINING AWARD WINNER, ELIESHA LTD


Eliesha provide a wide range of bespoke training and consultancy to a diverse client base including the Health & Safety Executive, Welsh Water and OfGem.


AWARD


Recently achieving ISO 14001 (Environment) demonstrates their commitment to ongoing sustainability for future generations, and therefore a commitment to working in partnership with, and supporting the Wind Energy and other renewable energy businesses.


THE WIND ENERGY INDUSTRY In their work in the industry, they have recognised that in these times of constant change, leaders and managers need to be mentally tough and resilient to maximise performance, and to confidently lead their teams with a clearly communicated vision and strategy.


SKILLS SHORTAGE AND EMPLOYEE ENGAGEMENT


With some organisations suffering from an ageing workforce and a skills shortage, leaders and managers need to enhance their coaching ability to bring on talent and succession plan for the future.

A bi-product of learning and development is Employee Engagement.


Julie Flanagan, North East business woman, and Managing Director of Eliesha Training Ltd says “to attract and keep the right people in the industry, and to increase and sustain employee engagement during these times of change, Wind Energy leaders and managers need to have the right skills and attitude to People Development. A recent Gallop survey has evidenced that employees are 18% more productive


than disengaged ones, and they provide a higher level of customer service.


An excellent customer experience is crucial for North East businesses to attract and retain customers to the Region and continue to thrive. We are a ‘canny’ bunch here in the North East, and multinational organisations like to do business with us......why? because we have a strong supportive business community in the Region, which collectively provides customers with a flexible and agile service’.
