workshops and training.

​Training is the best solution when a larger group of employees needs support in improving work methods or developing competencies

  We offer professional case studies and attractive educational games that allow people to learn and implement knowledge and practical skills based on the effective principle of ‘learning through experience’.
 
We create custom-made workshops for teams that want to enhance team cooperation, achieve goals or solve problems. Depending on the needs and situation, the consultant may assume the role of the facilitator, trainer or the interim manager.​

​Tools and methods used during the workshops:

1.  Initial consultation with the client company 

​The scope of the training project is determined after discussing the needs and expectations of the client company. This includes:

• a ​consultation meeting with the client company discussing: business objectives, roles and responsibilities assigned to each job workflow, competency models, the attendees unique profiles;
• an online questionnaire for all participants;
• optional: interviews/shadowing of work of selected participants (on-site or remotely by phone).

These are some of the methods that allow us to come to and agreement on the company priorities, review the proposal,  and select the appropriate set of case studies and exercises. We will also settle on how we intend to monitor  the project during its course to ensure its success and adjustment to current needs and requirements.

​2. Homework assignments

Both before and after each stage of the training, we will present the so-called "homework assignments" to prepare ahead of the next stage  and/or to  summarize the completed workshop. Progress on the homework assignments will mostly be monitored online. Tasks may involve using  a specific work method, answering some questions or reading recommended literature.​

3.  Educational games

The game is a very attractive form of training, implementing the principle of "learning through experience". The game scenario introduces competing teams of participants to a virtual, abstract world. To win - you need to creatively use the tools and skills related to the contents of the  training. When the game is finished, we explore  analogies and draw conclusions that can be useful in a real  business environment.​

​4. Case studies and simulations

Using simulations of real business situations such as meetings, presentations and gatherings (including the ones  online version), means using the most important learning tool in the management and sales training. Each exercise   will be subject to an analysis of the  strengths, weaknesses and areas for potential improvement - using constructive  feedback methods.​

​5. Analytical tools

Throughout the session we will perform a number of exercises that aim to teach  the use of the given analytical tools (charts, spreadsheets) to improve your work style. These include, but are not limited to: the meeting agenda/notes, the task list, customer analysis, a team map.​

​6. The training materials

We will provide all participants with training materials including the theoretical framework , an number of exercise sets and analytical tools. Exercise workbooks will be prepared in paper form for use in class, and training materials will be sent out  to the participants in the PDF format.​

​7. The action plans

Each training course will be completed by creating  individual action plans for each of the  participants, which will also serve as their commitments to apply chosen elements of the training in their professional practice.​

​8. Participant satisfaction surveys

We ask the participants to evaluate  their training with a closing survey.​

9. Post-training reports

At the end of the project we will present a final report including:

• Information about the course of the training
• Surveys results
• The trainers' opinions and recommendations - regarding consolidation of the acquired skills

 
In addition, we will prepare training completion certificates  for all the training  participants.
