Synergetics Core Dimensions


The four core dimensions of our consultancy are shown in the figure above.

Conflict and stress flow naturally from human differences, and when transformed enable us to perfom at our peak, both individually and organizationally.

Human Differences

Our differences make life both interesting, challenging and difficult. Understanding ourselves helps us to understand and value others and celebrate diversity at work. This ability becomes even more important in a multicultural and globalized society. Synergetics psychologists have the expertise and experience to explore these dimensions, in training groups, 1-1 coaching and counselling. As psychologists we have access to a wide range of psychometric tests and tools.

Conflict Management

Conflict arises from our differences. It can be creative when well managed. It can be also be toxic, undermining group synergy and adversely affecting productivity and profit. Conflict can exist at all levels within an organization: interpersonal, intergroup and inter-organizational (with suppliers, contractors, community groups, government agencies, etc). We can coach and train individuals and teams, from shop floor to senior management, to manage conflict more effectively and to improve their communication, interpersonal and teamwork skills. We can also act as an independent and impartial facilitator or mediator in more difficult situations.

Stress Management

Both too little and too much stress can lead to distress and coping problems, expressed as boredom, burnout, breakdown, psychosomatic symptoms (e.g. insomnia, substance abuse), psychological disorders (e.g. panic, depression), and interference with work performance (e.g. irritability, accidents, absenteeism or 'presenteeism'). Stress audits, job analysis and re-design, coaching, counselling, training and development programmes can help individuals and teams function more effectively and in their zone of optimum stress for peak performance.

Peak Performance

Peak performing employees are the key to top performing organizations. Unleashing the potential of individuals and work teams satisfies both the employee and employer. This synergetic empowerment peaks when conflict and stress are both transformed into positive, productive resources. Our Peak Performance Coaching and Training Programmes, incorporating state-of-the-art neurotechnologies, provide individuals and organizations with unique and powerful tools for achieving optimal personal effectiveness.
