The Institute for the Development of Human Potential (IDHP) is an organisation that seeks to promote and further humanistic ideas, practices and skills – putting human beings and human needs first.
- We work with groups – looking at systems and practices and enabling businesses and organisations to develop holistic ways of working
- We work with individuals – developing awareness, understanding and an acceptance of self and others in order to release human potential both personally and professionally.
Humanistic ways of working are central to empowering and transforming ourselves and the organisations and structures around us:
- Developing our full potential as human beings
- Developing an authentic leadership style
- Developing healthy, diverse and effective organisations
- Developing personal presence and personal power
- Dealing with change, challenge and difference
- Coaching and facilitating change
- Promoting connected and congruent ways of thinking and being
The humanistic way of working values people first, listens to individuals and connects the internal experience of thoughts and feelings with actions and relationships in the external world, in conscious awareness of the diversity of family, work, social and political structures that shape our lives.
