About Us

Henry & Harris Partnership

We believe in the power of people: we believe it is people that make a difference to organisations and that is why people are at the heart of everything we do and why we do it. We know from our own experience just how chaotic and complicated organisational life can be, and how the never-ending list of ‘priorities’ can slow you down, which is why we created Henry & Harris Partnership – to give your business instant access to expert advice and tailor-made support. 

 

Between us we have over 40 years’ experience in people leadership across multiple industries and sectors. Our partnership is made up of a team of experts who are the very best at what they do. Our aim is to bring the benefits of a consultancy service married up with the commitment of a co-worker and trusted advisor – we believe in being in partnership with you. You can rely on us to provide you with accurate insight, bespoke solutions and impactful implementation that will help you accelerate business growth and enable your people to thrive.

 

We will be with you every step of the way to help improve your business.

Delivery

Just as our organisation was founded on partnership, so too are the relationships we have with our clients. We are passionate about collaborating with organisations who are seeking to get the best from their people, and we know that working in partnership is the most effective way to achieve that. We always take the time to get to know and understand you, so that we can offer targeted support for your business. 

Our team has deep operational expertise that ensures we deliver to the high standards our clients demand. As a founder-led organisation you benefit from our specialist knowledge every step of the way, alongside the flexibility and speed that larger organisations can’t provide. We work at pace, with passion and creativity, to deliver the results you are seeking.

With over four decades of combined experience from industry-leading businesses such as the John Lewis Partnership, we have the breadth and depth of knowledge it takes to transform leaders, teams, or organisations and help them achieve success. We know what it takes to drive the change our clients are striving for, and we have the skills and resources to make it happen.

Our charitable partnership

We founded this business to do what we love doing: making a difference to individuals, teams and organisations and, for us, that also means being generous with our time and sharing our expertise to benefit our wider communities.

 

We bring the same focus on partnership, transformation and delivery to our charitable work, which helps support disadvantaged young people.

One of the ways we do this is by providing coaching and mentoring support via the charity Yes Futures. The charity helps empower young people and improve their confidence, resilience and access to successful futures.

 

We are proud to contribute to this vital work and our clients value that by partnering with us, they are making a difference to the leaders of tomorrow at the same time as investing in their employees.
