Bowstring Consulting LLP specialises in the field of executive coaching, mentoring, leadership development, organisation consulting, topical workshops, group facilitation, behavioural and psychological assessments, managerial skills development, culture building and employee engagement. Our philosophy is to make an impact on business results through people and leadership interventions that bring about an increase in overall system capacity (consisting of individuals, teams and the larger organisation). Bowstring operates in the unique intersection between the world of people interventions (coaching, mentoring, other learning and development initiatives) and the attainment of tangible business results (business leadership, multiple domain expertise, managing line functions, stakeholder engagement, corporate strategy etc.) The literal meaning of “bowstring” comes from being the launchpad for the arrow. The capacity of the bow is derived from the bowstring. It stands for strength, light weight, resistance, endurance, focus and needs to be pulled back before action. A metaphorical parallel can be drawn with organisations and teams where agility, resilience, focus, reflection (pulling back), leveraging strengths amongst so many others contribute to capacity addition and improved business results.
