BFA Development
BFA Development, led by Breda Flaherty since 1992, develops leaders and professional experts to work well in their changing teams, services and organisations.
• Expertise
Breda and her associate colleagues offer expert knowledge of professional cultures at work, and how these impact on organisations’ ability to change and develop. We draw on over 20 years’ experience to design and deliver leadership development programmes, develop organisational plans and strategy, resolve conflicts and offer clients practical skills in making changes.
• Trust
Clients consistently invite BFA to address sensitive ‘trust’ issues crucial to their success (e.g. professional sensitivities, personality factors, reactions to the impact of change). We act as a confidential broker - we hold individual discussions, move beyond vested interests and standpoints, and design constructive events to create solutions to long-standing frustrations.
• Partnership in Change
BFA focuses on the changing expectations and service standards that face leaders and professionals in their organisations. We work alongside leaders and professionals to address key questions: ‘what’s good about what we do?’, ‘how do we want to enhance it?’ and 'what must we change to meet new expectations?’
We take a partnership approach, working in close collaboration with our clients. We work directly with individuals, teams, and whole services; clients also commission us to develop service standards, produce guidelines, or write strategies, plans and reports.
