Aberdeenshire based · Covering the North East of Scotland and beyond. Online facilitation also available
What you get from a Licensed Practitioner
Profiles alone rarely change anything. The value comes from the facilitation around them — which is what a practitioner is for.
Insights Discovery™ Personal Profiles
Each person completes the online evaluator and receives their own Personal Profile — a detailed, readable report on their preferences, strengths, blind spots and how others can work best with them.
Profile feedback sessions
One-to-one or small group walkthroughs so the profile lands properly. People leave knowing what to do differently, not just what colour they are.
Team workshops & team wheels
Half day to full day facilitated sessions using your team's colour map to improve communication, reduce friction and agree how you work together.
Leadership development
Sessions for managers on flexing style across all four colour energies — feedback, delegation, coaching and leading through change.

Every session facilitated by me
You deal with one practitioner from first conversation to follow-up — no handovers, no off-the-shelf decks. Sessions are shaped around your team, your language and the problems you actually have.

Common questions
What does a Licensed Insights Discovery™ Practitioner do?
A Licensed Practitioner is accredited by Insights Learning & Development to generate Insights Discovery™ Personal Profiles and to facilitate the feedback and workshops that turn those profiles into practical change. Every session on this site is delivered personally by Dave Sydenham.
How does Insights Discovery™ work?
Each participant completes a short online evaluator. That produces a Personal Profile based on the four colour energies — Fiery Red, Sunshine Yellow, Earth Green and Cool Blue. We then explore the profiles together as individuals and as a team.
Where do you work?
In person across Aberdeen, Stonehaven, Aberdeenshire and the wider North East of Scotland, and further afield by arrangement. Online facilitation is available for remote or distributed teams.
How many people do you need for a workshop?
Anything from a one-to-one profile feedback session up to a full team. Groups of around six to sixteen tend to get the most from a facilitated team workshop.
