WHAT WE DO

Enhance organizational performance by developing the skills of your business’ support services personnel.

Employees in your non-core business support services, such as finance, HR, recruitment, marketing, procurement and sales, keep your organization at peak performance just as much as your operations team. Developing the professional and vocational skills of your business support service employees can improve efficiency, productivity and organizational performance.

Our approach

We understand your challenges and design programs that build the technical skills of your non-core workforce.

Assess

Your situations, challenges and objectives are unique. In the first stage of our partnership, we explore your objectives, existing capabilities and strategic context. We then partner with you to create a bespoke, data-driven training and development framework that details our deliverables and how we will support your journey.

Design

We work with you to design the plan, skills and training materials needed to deliver your target outcomes. Collaborating with your teams during this phase is essential for your people to co-own and sign up to the resulting plan. When we know the precise resources, time and expertise needed, we create a detailed roadmap that we follow together for the duration of your organizational transformation.

Develop and incorporate

Now we move into the implementation stage, rolling out the plans and activities that will achieve your training and development objectives. Whatever we are creating together — from training your leaders to achieving vocational certifications — we will work with you to customize and implement it to emerging requirements.

Implement and deliver

Let’s be realistic. No training or consulting solution fully survives its first stages of implementation and delivery – the real world moves too fast. Your success depends on how well we planned for this change during stages 1 and 2, which we do. We then support the delivery of your plan.

Review and evaluate

We help you to monitor, review and evaluate results to understand your customized training and development program’s performance. Together, we make sure we understand what worked well, and less well, and embrace these lessons in the next cycle of planning and implementation.
