Who we work with | Tavistock Institute of Human Relations Skip to main content

Since 1947, we have worked internationally with a wide variety of people, groups, businesses and other organisations. 

No human is alike, no question about Human Relations is alike and, most definitely, no piece of work we undertake is alike. These are some of our recent client organisations. 
 

Hear from organisations we have worked with


‘We wanted to enhance dynamics among our C-suite members, clarify roles and responsibilities at the top level, and address long-standing challenges around conflict resolution.

Tavistock approached this complex brief with professionalism, cultural sensitivity, and a depth of insight that immediately resonated with our leadership.

The results were tangible. We saw a measurable improvement in team cohesion, a stronger sense of alignment across roles, and a more open and constructive approach to dialogue and decision-making.

Their work created a foundation of trust and team dynamic as well as clarity that continues to benefit the organization.’


‘It [leadership training] has provided all the leaders on the course an opportunity to share a common language, be honest in our observations but ultimately aim to speak truth in our conversations.’

‘An incredibly powerful course that you can’t help but feel changed by the experience. I personally gained an increased insight into my own leadership & how my own unconscious processes do impact…even when I think they don’t!’

‘I think all senior leadership teams should undertake this course collectively……only by being honest with the leadership team around us do we truly achieve our individual & collective potential.’

‘The Tavistock Institute helped us to have an independent view as well as a progressive perspective on our current Leadership and culture. 

Their consultant/researchers provided expertise and a rigorous approach to the diagnostic approach to make sense of our data as well as live observations and conversations they conducted.’
