There is a place for courses that have been put together by others, with a list of topics that flow together to tell a particular story and deliver a standardized knowledge and skill set. Almost every single course out there has been built based on averages: what do most people, and most companies, need to learn, most of the time? Well designed, standardized courses, deliver to most attendees, a good portion of what they need to know. The vast majority of training providers are in this camp: monolithic, one size fits all.

​

Some training providers have standardized courses, and will customize them, for a fee, adding or subtracting topical coverage. And that's great. You get the chance to hone in some on those particular things that represent your way of doing things, your models, your terminology, and some branding. This is clearly better, but still not optimal.

Our multiple award winning learning and development experts have been building impactful technical and people-focused adult education and training programs for over 35 years, including standardized, customizable and bespoke tailored-to-one programs, for individuals, and for local, national and global clients. And this we know: training needs to be about you and built around your needs, not the other way around, requiring you to fit into someone else's vision and version of what you need to learn. To be fair, if you are starting from square one, guidance is essential. But let's be real here. In order to deliver maximum value, your training provider must know you, know your challenges, know what is it you already know, and work with you in partnership to take your people to the next, natural stage in their professional development. In short, know your gemba, the place where your leaders create value, and what it will take to enhance that.

​

That is why, yes, we have packages of topics that, for many, will make sense, as highly immersive 1 day courses. They provide solid foundations. If your needs are more selective, we want you to be able to configure your learning experience right down the topic level. So we have taken all the blocks apart, so that they can be recombined with maximum flexibility to deliver exactly everything you need, and nothing that you don't.

We offer a full range of 1 and 2 hour topical modules on all aspects of leadership, and build from there to create immersion learning sessions that speak directly to your leadership development requirements.  We start by working with you to understand your needs. What is important for your people to know? What is urgent? What do they already know and can put into practice? What is the current state of your leadership competency bench strength, as compared to the leadership challenges you face regarding strategy execution?

​

Together, we put together a strategic plan for leadership development that is as unique as you are. We identify those critical, high priority modules and schedule them in ways that make it easy, and very cost effective for you. And we go further. Once those essential building block competency modules have been selected, we add the connective tissue that brings it all together for actionable leadership. Choose Delegation and Performance Management? We include how they relate to each other. Choose Coaching and Project Leadership? We do that too. The result is an unsurpassed, deeply effective learning program that translates to immediate and long term positive impact.

​

This is how we work with you: as fully dedicated partners in your success, with a degree of high touch engagement you won't find elsewhere. We will help you build a strategy and program of study for your very complex and intersecting leadership development needs, to make it simple, feasible and cost effective to bring every one of your leaders, from executives to front line supervisors, to that critical, next level of competency and measurable performance.
