About Us

We design and deliver high-quality, intensive, individual development programmes aligned with the organisation’s goals that deliver quantifiable business results.

Our Core Principles

Our aim is to be seen as trusted business advisors by our clients. Our drive is to be valued for the difference we make to the organisations we work with.

We achieve this through our understanding of the strategic importance of people development and its impact on business performance. In the world’s service-driven environment, creating a sustainable competitive advantage from people is critical to meeting the long term strategic aims and objectives of all organisations across all sectors.

This is at the heart of the IDG philosophy, which has been built on the following core principles:

• We demonstrate a real understanding of business.
• We build long term mutually beneficial relationships with our clients.
• We deliver solutions – we do not sell products.
• We evidence the value we add for our clients through a variety of measurement tools.

To deliver this philosophy our people are drawn from a spectrum of cultural backgrounds. We have academics, sports men and women, former military personnel and business people. Drawn together to form relevant client teams, this eclectic mix:

• Constructively challenges “perceived wisdom” and leads the debate on developing talent.
• Designs bespoke solutions that are tailored to the needs of the client.
• Takes pride in the quality of the end-to-end service delivered.
• Consistently delivers a measurable and sustainable return on investment for clients.
• Embraces technology, applying it to enhance the proposed solutions.
• Understands the cost of what we do but also the value we bring.
