Human Resources
Mentoring, Training & Consulting
Capability is cheaper to build than to buy, and it stays. BPS works with owners, managers and teams to lift what your people can do — through one-to-one mentoring, training built around the roles you actually have, and consulting on the problems that need an answer now.
What mentoring and training cover
Three different things, delivered by the same people and often in the same engagement. Mentoring is one to one, over time, for owners and managers carrying decisions they have nobody to test against. Training is structured and built around the roles your people actually hold, not a generic course. Consulting is for when you need the answer rather than the skill — a specific people problem, resolved.
Much of this work is about the moments that decide whether good people stay: how a role is defined, how a manager interviews, what the first ninety days look like, whether performance conversations happen at all. Get those right and retention follows without a retention program.
Because BPS sits across finance, operations and governance as well as HR, the development we deliver is grounded in how your business actually makes money — not in a leadership model borrowed from somewhere else.
Who it’s for
The situation this service is built for.
- You’re carrying decisions alone and have nobody to test your thinking against.
- Your managers were promoted for technical ability and have never been taught to manage.
- Capable people leave earlier than you would like.
- Hiring is inconsistent because everyone interviews differently.
- New starters take too long to become useful, or don’t stay long enough to.
- Performance conversations either don’t happen or go badly when they do.
- You want the capability held in your team rather than bought in each time.
What you get
Where you end up once it’s working.
- Managers who can lead, hire and hold a difficult conversation.
- A repeatable way of defining roles and the performance each requires.
- Onboarding that gets new starters productive faster.
- Better retention of the people you’ve invested in.
- Owners with somewhere to test a decision before making it.
- Development that continues after we leave.
How we deliver it
- Mentor owners, managers and emerging leaders one to one, over a sustained period.
- Design and deliver training built around the roles your people actually hold.
- Define roles and the standard of performance each one requires.
- Build manager capability in interviewing and selection, so hiring decisions improve across the business.
- Improve onboarding so new starters settle, contribute and stay.
- Establish performance conversations and development plans that keep running without us.
- Advise on retention — why people leave, and which of those reasons you can actually change.
- Consult on specific people problems where you need a resolution rather than a course.
Why BPS
We mentor and train from operating experience rather than theory, and because BPS also works across your finances, operations and governance, the development connects to how the business actually runs. BPS is based in Perth and works with businesses across Western Australia.
