About us
Who we are
Brandheart was formed in Wellington in 1998. We work throughout New Zealand, Southeast Asia and the South Pacific in the private, central and local government sectors. Brandheart is an experienced provider of customised, results-focused leadership and staff development courses and team building workshops.
We specialise in designing and delivering training courses that are focused on ‘soft skills’, which we know are really the hard skills to master. After all, what could be more challenging (and rewarding) than building self-awareness and taking responsibility to increase the effectiveness of our relationships, in even the most difficult situations?
It is through our courses that we fulfil our Vision: Conscious People – Conscious Organisations.
Enabling our client’s success
Through our customised courses, we support people to be conscious,
emotionally intelligent and productive members of their teams. We love what we do and the people we work with, in fact it’s a privilege for us to see people empowering themselves and unleashing their full potential in their role and relationships.
We believe that each person, no matter what their role, has a significant part to play in achieving positive outcomes for stakeholders and their organisation.
We also find it inspiring to hear about the transformational impact that our courses have on people’s lives outside of work, whether it’s with their children, partners, friends and family or their communities.
Making development stick
One of the hallmarks of Brandheart’s work is assisting people to raise their self-awareness, including understanding the thoughts that drive their behaviours and the resulting outcomes. When people understand and transform their mindsets, they experience sustainable shifts in behaviours that stick well into the future. While building self-awareness is key to our courses, Brandheart also delivers highly practical and relevant tools which can be applied immediately to participants’ workplace roles and relationships.
The Brandheart way
Our interactions with our course participants are centred on creating a positive and respectful relationship with them, in which we acknowledge, and build upon their existing expertise and wisdom in an stretching and engaging way. What sits beneath this approach is ‘Our Brandheart Philosophy’ which guides how we work with our clients, participants and with each other as a team – Love, Laughter, Lightness and Learning:
Love/Aroha: we love what we do and who we work with
Laughter/Kata: we bring a joyful approach to our work
Lightness/Māmā: we respond rather than react
Learning/Tupu: we experience life as a series of adventures that bring opportunities for growth
