What
sets Inside Solutions (IS) apart from all other consultation services
is a unique understanding of the human mind and organizational processes.
Years of experience working with individuals in crisis, and helping them
overcome the most tenuous and challenging conditions, has given IS a deep
understanding of the human spirit and its ability to triumph when the
right support and environment is provided for it.
Working
with thousands of individuals from all cultural and socioeconomic backgrounds
has yielded some fundamental universal truths about basic human needs.
These include, the need to love and be loved, to be heard and understood,
to contribute and grow and to belong. In other words, the quality of our
lives is dependent on the quality of our relationships.
To
the extent that these needs are not successfully addressed, our capacity
to contend with life’s challenges significantly diminishes. When these
needs are met, the human mind, with its infinite potential, feels free
to explore, discover, create and grow.
Given
the accelerated rate of change and uncertainty of the Internet industry,
coupled with the constant challenges to take on more information and make
quick decisions, managers find themselves feeling overwhelmed, and unable
to meet not only their own needs, but their staff’s as well. IS works
with managers and their staff to help them calm and clear their minds
so that they can hear and communicate their needs both on a professional
level and on a personal one.
When
IS enters a company, the primary objective is to create an environment
where individuals are going to feel safe, understood and acknowledged.
We listen in a way that communicates to our clients that we care about
what they have to say and are there to insure that their feelings and
ideas are heard. We know that every individual is an essential part of
the whole and we communicate that value to them very early in the process.
This approach provides them with an immediate sense of possibility for
making a difference and contributing to the overall picture.
Their
response is generally one of hope and excitement. In this new open space,
they feel free to express their frustrations, conflicts and concerns.
They are then encouraged to communicate their perceptions of what the
company’s limitations are and how they may be resolved. The company’s
strengths and ways in which to expand upon them are also examined. Their
opinion and perspective is honored and respected.
Once
that is completed, we explore with them their perception of their own
strengths and limitations. Since we have created a safe and optimistic
environment in which to share their true feelings, they are willing, and
often boldly so, to be painstakingly honest about themselves. This gives
IS the opportunity to openly explore with them how they may address these
limitations in themselves and expand on their strengths. Here we implement
our psychological know how to help them identify and reduce their tension,
anxieties and inner conflicts resulting in their capacity to harness and
focus the power of their mind.
This
process allows them to think clearly and better understand their own potential
for contributing to the company’s overall well being and conversely, to
its detriment. Suddenly, success is no longer just the company’s goal
or responsibility, it is theirs as well.
As
we gather the data from every individual in the company, a composite of
the organism’s functional and dysfunctional dynamics becomes evident.
In crisis situations, where expediency is of the essence, this clear and
comprehensive composite allows the company to immediately identify and
prioritize their next moves. Managers are now able to see the underlying
causes of their difficulties and deal with them directly. Because everyone
in the company has been an integral part of this process, they all feel
connected to it, and embrace their role in forwarding the company’s success.
In this environment of safety and interdependence, creativity and abundance
flows. The whole becomes greater than the sum of its parts.
