Chancery Multi Academy Trust
You introduced me to the Talent Tool when I needed it the most. Taking on a new role as a CEO, you provided a great platform for me to explore this with the new team. Staff conversations have changed as a result – they talk openly about what they need from each other (and leaders!). It’s a real game-changer.
Trafford Council
Delve are super flexible and just have an energy and enthusiasm that is refreshing. They work in a highly collaborative way and supported us to bring to life our management and leadership programme.
Hall Smith Whittingham Solicitors
Before we implemented the Delve Talent Tool, our appraisal process was archaic; it was about form filling and box ticking, with no consideration to the human behind the role. Using Delve's Talent Tool, we have quite literally 'opened up the performance conversation', with both parties contributing and listening, which has led to a much better outcome in the way we develop our employees.

They will add enormous value to any project they are involved with. Their energy and enthusiasm is contagious and I would not hesitate to work with them again or recommend them to others.
Manchester Health & Care Commissioning
Delve OD worked with my organisation to help us analyse our staff survey results. From the very start, Sarah and Nicola brought a professional, considered and engaging approach. They were fantastic at offering advice and insight into some of the issues we faced, and had great suggestions at how to overcome challenges. Nothing was too much trouble throughout the project, and the result was an in-depth analysis report and OD plan which have helped the organisation really progress with engagement.
NHS Wigan Council
Delve are clearly passionate about what they do. They were highly committed to understanding our needs and the wider picture and brought a fresh and engaging approach to achieving what was required. They also brought energy and appropriate fun in moving everyone forward. I would work with them again.
