Too much management training fails to create lasting change

People leave the room energised. Two weeks later, nothing has changed. The workbook is in a drawer. The old habits are back.

We build our programmes the other way round, starting from what people actually need to do differently, then giving them the tools, the practice and the follow-through to make it stick.

At Longshaw Consulting we believe good training creates insight, great training creates lasting change.

Five ways we help organisations manage people well

Leadership & Management Development

Confident managers who communicate clearly, inspire performance, build trust, handle difficult conversations and coach their people.

Team Development

High-performing teams built on trust, communication and genuine collaboration using Insights Discovery®, Motivational Maps® and practical team programmes.

Executive Coaching

One-to-one coaching that helps leaders think strategically, navigate challenge with confidence and increase their impact.

Personal & Career Development

Helping individuals understand their strengths and motivators, build confidence and resilience, and move towards the career they want.

NeuroWorks Training

Our specialist neurodiversity and inclusion practice. Practical programmes that help organisations build psychologically safe workplaces where everyone can do their best work.

A consultancy built on believing in people

Longshaw Consulting Group was founded in 2016 by Madeline and Guy Longshaw, bringing together more than two decades of senior HR, executive coaching and leadership development experience.

“I have engaged Madeline over many years, mainly to run Insights workshops and executive coaching programmes in a number of organisations. The feedback is always very positive. Madeline is an expert in her field, and has the ability to see potential in teams and individuals and help them build their self belief. This has regularly led to  a significant impact on performance in the business. Madeline has a rare blend of knowledge, professionalism and down to earth relatability, which is a powerful combination. She is extremely insightful and able to quickly tune into dynamics and diagnose issues. Over and above that she brings relentless positivity and a rare generosity of spirit, demonstrating a high level of personal investment in the working partnership and commitment in driving results for the client. I highly recommend her.”
