ABOUT
Notion is an international authority on management performance and the creator of the multi-award-winning STAR® Manager solution. Breaking new ground in the sector, Notion has redefined leadership following significant research investment by the UK government to assess the impact of its innovative methodology, Operational Coaching®. Notion helps managers and leaders globally to adopt behaviours that foster powerful change in organisational culture and increase employee engagement, productivity, inclusion and collaboration. Unlike traditional training, which relies on irregular knowledge transfer, Notion focuses on embedding sustainable behavioural change in the flow of work.
Notion’s approach addresses the critical global issue of low productivity and engagement by transforming “accidental managers” into “intentional managers”, capable leaders who can unleash the extraordinary wealth of talent and untapped potential within their teams.. With a mission to rehumanise management, Notion provides a scalable, research-proven solution that moves your managers and leaders from a transactional “command-and-control” style to an “enquiry-led” approach within six months. By equipping them with the skills and confidence to adopt an Operational Coaching® style of management proven to deliver commercial impact, Notion guarantees a measurable return on investment (ROI).
Notion is spearheading a global management revolution with a solution that is academically validated and commercially proven. The organisation’s “A-game” is STAR® Manager, a scalable, fully managed human capital solution that has been enjoyed by managers in over 40 countries, including the USA and France. The driving force behind Notion’s international offer is the urgent need to solve a global productivity crisis. Gallup reports that up to 90% of the global workforce is disengaged, costing the global economy $8.9 trillion annually.
Notion addresses this by replacing outdated Taylorist management models with Operational Coaching®—a methodology that empowers managers to stop “fixing” problems and start developing their teams using purposeful enquiry. What makes Notion unique is the unprecedented level of evidence backing its offer. In one of the world’s largest randomised-controlled trials (RCT) of its kind, sponsored by the UK Government (BEIS and Innovate UK) and conducted by the London School of Economics (LSE), Notion’s approach was put to the ultimate test.
The trial involved managers and leaders drawn from 62 different organisations across 14 sectors. LSE proved, at a statistically significant level, that managers participating in the STAR® Manager programme increased the time spent coaching team members, in the flow of work, by 70%. Furthermore, these organisations enjoyed a 74x average Return on Investment (ROI) and a 20% increase in capability across all nine management competencies measured. Notion’s international activity is centred on exporting this “British Standard” of management excellence. The STAR® Manager solution is designed for rapid global deployment.
It is not a static training course but an experiential discovery programme that generates measurable behavioural change. It is delivered via a blend of digital modules and “Mission Control” support, allowing for cohorts ranging from a single manager to 10,000 learners to be launched simultaneously anywhere in the world. This scalability allows Notion to support multinational corporations in establishing a consistent, high-performance management culture across diverse geographical territories. By equipping managers with the skills to engage a multi-generational and multi-cultural workforce, Notion is helping international organisations unlock the full potential of their people, driving innovation, and securing a competitive advantage in a complex global market.
