What?

Training Course Overview

Leaders can struggle to keep up with the pace of change, make good decisions, and above all, help their teams to navigate the leadership minefield. This Leadership skills training course will support leaders to lead effectively in the world’s fast-paced knowledge worker environment, manage each situation using a proven tool, understand their strengths & weaknesses, and finally, play to their strengths.

For instance, this training course will give leaders greater skills in handling tough performance conversations. Allowing them to be clearer on what is expected. In this case, they will become more confident, namely, knowing what great leaders do and do not do. Furthermore, they will be able to develop a team that understands and buys into their vision.

Why?

Our memory weakens over time. 85% of what learners learn in a training course is forgotten within the first 30 days.

Most people attend training courses and have a great day. The problem is that they do nothing differently afterwards. A person invests 8 hours of their time, a company invests money in that person, and the result is, well, nothing. No behavioural change for the learners. Learning that sticks changes that.

How?

The best piece of learning we all did was to drive. This is because driving lessons are based on spaced repetition. Do a lesson, stop & reflect, do another lesson, and so on. Our training programme is based on blended learning/70:20:10. A combination of traditional face-to-face training days, plus virtual classrooms, one-to-one coaching and Sticky Pieces (Homework) to embed the learning. All aimed to change the behaviours of the Learners.

Course Point of Difference

Achieving Real Behavioural Change with ‘Sticky Learning ®’

Sticky Learning ® is our own unique learning method. Developed over the last 20+ years. Most Learners attend 1-day training courses and do nothing afterwards. HR Managers & L&D Managers told us that this was unacceptable.

Sticky Learning ® helps Learners to Realise more of what they have learnt. To help them to Recall more of what they have learnt. Plus, Retain more of what they have learnt. The 3 R’s.

Sticky Learning ® enables us to proudly guarantee that if a Learner is not still using their new skill 5 months later, we will give you your money back. This is our money-back guarantee.
