A people-first approach to improved efficiency + productivity + connection +
Organisation transformation through positive conversation
We're positive about people
Nathan Dring and Associates is a bespoke consultancy that focuses on helping organisations with the ‘people-side of performance.’
The human aspect
In many organisations, improving performance through people can be tricky! Some initiatives are short-lived, some don’t quite embed and some don’t get off the ground. As such a lot of time, money and effort is spent with little to show for it. This can happen when there is too much focus on the tangible and measurable aspects of performance. We recognise that these are necessary ‘levers of control’ and that they give direction, but they do not focus enough on the human aspect.
Around 80% of human behaviour is driven by emotion, so when organisations almost exclusively focus on the logical facets of performance, they miss out. As such, the employee experience doesn’t feel right, the culture is one of chasing targets – and the overall result is that both the customer experience and the business metrics are missed.
Details, not generalities
Unlike many consultancies, Nathan Dring and Associates doesn’t have a team of generalists waiting to be deployed. Instead, a wide network of deeply specialised associates, allows us to send only the best people – specialists who will only be working in their sweet spot.
Nathan Dring and Associates help organisations of all sizes to get the best from their people and to create an environment in which people can be at their best more often. The result of this is increased productivity, higher performance and improved retention, done in a way that is sustainable, embedded and doesn’t require long term, embedded consultancy support (and the associated costs!).

Impact
Delivering positive change with permanent results.
- Staff development is built into existing models and ways of working so operational performance is not impacted by taking people ‘off the day job’.
- Content is ‘owned and applied’ at a team level – increasing both adoption rate and longevity of application.
- Retraining is not needed when people leave – foreground IP is owned by the client.
- Staff are more engaged – which drives productivity and performance.
+ Approach
Learning and development delivered through effective conversation.
Training staff is challenging. It costs time, money and operational performance. ND+A use an approach that embeds learning into daily rhythms and routines, so people and businesses can grow without interruption.
