About...
Shire
Professional are psychologists and researchers who
conduct all types of organisational research, and
provide very specialist expertise in key business
areas for both the public and private sectors.
We are experienced organizational researchers and
research project managers, well aware of the need
to carry out cost effective and robust research to
tight timescales. We work when you work, which means
our help and advice is available outside the hours
of the traditional working day, including weekends
and bank holidays.
Although we work with clients from across the UK our
business caters particularly for central and local
government departments and provincial businesses who
would like professional advice and support in their
key business areas. We have won national awards for
our research innovation, and have worked across the
public and private sector.
Shire Professional work in very specialist and niche
markets, including staff selection, fast-stream leadership
programmes, employee surveys and workplace violence
& aggression.
We have specialist staff in these key areas who are
regarded nationally and internationally as subject
experts. We don’t work in areas where we are
not at the cutting edge of our subject. All of our
staff are security cleared and used to working in
sensitive arenas.
We have a strong problem solving approach, and all
of our solutions are practical, cost effective and
based upon the latest research evidence.
You
might also find it refreshing that we don't produce
glossy brochures, we don't make promises we can't
fulfill and we don't hard sell. We pride ourselves
on keeping projects on track, whatever the difficulties
that arise. Too often research which is driving business
development is blown off course by problems that paralyse
other research organisations.
We
don’t sit about and let that happen. We come
up with innovative solutions, with all of the implications
explored, and then get on with putting the project
back on track. We have never missed a project deadline
or failed to deliver on a project.
