Doing Big & Scary: Developing Team Effectiveness
This four stage programme is designed for the needs of each client.

1. Measure what happens in and around ‘meetings’ to benchmark aspects of productivity and culture in the business
2. Provide a big & scary shared, competitive, outdoor experience to challenge perceptions and bring people closer together
3. Structured reflection to figure out the ‘So what?’ Apply lessons back into the business and set new personal and collective goals
4. Embed the insights from the experience into the practices and culture of the business.

The programme typically runs over six months once the pre-programme work has been completed: Three months for the benchmarking and event preparation, then three months for the post-event stages.

Education

Transitions: Education Beyond The Classroom

This programme uses the sport of triathlon as a vehicle for cross-curricular learning in schools.
Specifically for pupils to master the skills of goal-setting and goal-getting so that they make successful and smooth transitions through the key stages of their school career and beyond.
Target Years 7, 9 & 12.

Transitions enables a school (& their cluster) to take a different and exciting whole child perspective, and to plan a creative curriculum over a half term around a triathlon event.
Specific subject links are to Enterprise, ICT, PE, and to Personal, Social & Health Education Key Stage Targets.

Andy is the creator of the unique Doing Big and Scary philosophy:

Big Goals - Massive Targets as a Six Step Process? Welcome To Our World!

Andy has been designing and running programmes for personal and team effectiveness since 2004.
He is a trained and experienced coach who is regarded as inspirational, innovative and highly time-effective by his clients.

He specialises in coaching and training goal-setting techniques and goal-getting strategies which also help his clients to become highly self-aware, skilled at managing their responses, and to improve the degree of balance in their lives.

In short: To get more of what they want and to enjoy the process.

Since starting his own business in 2000, he has worked with elite athletes and weekend warriors, school children and university graduates, and people who work in the public and private sectors.

In 2003, Andy began using his own competitive challenges to test and refine what he knows about the subject of personal and collective high performance.
His record-setting Enduroman Arch To Arc Triathlon Challenge was the experience he used to create his unique Doing Big & Scary model for setting and achieving tough, complex, and highly intimidating goals.

Since then he has continued to use his ultra-marathon running races – and the race experiences of his clients - to develop what he thinks he knows about staying the course…and to keep his skills sharp so that he can continue to really connect with the people he works with.

The team are now more effective.
Productivity is already up 10-15% and we expect it to keep rising to 30%.
They are spending more time doing what they should on their own initiative.
This means that managers can spend more time doing what they should!
As a result they have made real gains to their bottom line.

Inspiring, informative, entertaining, relevant ...the audience interaction pieces worked without being over the top…for a roomful of teachers to give you their rapt attention - and they really did - when you are not a teacher is brilliant, superb!

It was simple, powerful, and easy enough for me to pass onto other people - which I absolutely love.

What a revelation after over 20 years of struggle!’

It firmed up the commitment…crystalized the desire and helped me visualize what I needed to do…it was the right level of detail for me.

It’s exciting and it helped me focus…I can really see my goals now!
