Why Discovery?

The Discovery team are experts in designing and delivering career-defining development programmes for organisations across the UK.

Our approach to long-term success is to understand the stresses and strains on a business that cause attrition, under performance, disengagement, culture erosion – all things that impact on business success, employee well-being and, ultimately, profits. This approach stems from the Discovery founders’ many years of experience in the recruitment, training and performance improvement arena, and their passion & desire to do things better.
Experience has taught us that recruitment and training are better when approached together rather than in isolation: often, an identified need for recruitment or training can be symptomatic of wider needs across a business. Our diagnostic approach involves exploring all possible options with our clients to ensure we find the root cause before we implement a ‘surface led’ solution.
