RdL was founded in 2005 by Robert de Loryn, a human resource and commercial law qualified professional, who whilst working with multi nationals throughout his career had identified a significant deficiency in leadership abilities across many industries.
It was this deficiency that inspired the launch of RdL and its strategic initiatives to grow and develop existing and future leaders.
What he witnessed has been given the nick name by others as ‘Pale, male, and stale leadership thinking”, something that Robert knew needed to change.
RdL Management Consultants have been operating as leadership development specialists and have facilitated to, and coached, well over 1,200 current or emerging leaders from Directors, Executives and Chairs to newly appointed leaders.
We approach the development of people in a way that is significantly different to other providers. We measure our success on the difference we make to the people we partner with and their sustainable behavioural change.
RdL partners with clients globally, and have had great success in developing individual leaders, and their teams, to improve overall operational effectiveness by transforming people’s lives through personal growth and development.
We believe, one of the key contributors to RdL’s success, is understanding that leadership development is not something that can be learned through attending classroom facilitated sessions alone, it must be accompanied with one-to-one coaching and guiding to assist the person in transferring knowledge into sustainable behaviours.
