DYNAMIC RELEVANT DEVELOPMENT PROGRAMMES
Programmes can be delivered at
Conference Aston on Aston University's campus, a fully
serviced dedicated conference centre with recently refurbished
4 star executive bedrooms, or at any venue of our
clients’ choosing, anywhere in the world.
Our delivery approach includes:
- A process of teaching best
described as action learning in style, guiding practice in small
syndicate groups to encourage in-company application
- Logistics and follow-up that is tailored to clients' needs and programme requirements
- Customised
delivery, in real time, to the participants’ responses in the ”class”
room – tying in comments from those in different BUs across the
Corporate’s global terrain and facilitating the development of richer
networks
- Informal 1-2-1 coaching of
individual participants during face-to-face sessions ensures that
individuals get the most that they can out of each session and are
confident and committed to apply the learning in their workplace
- Case
studies that allow us and participants to comment on real exemplars and
events in the public domain. Case studies could also be written
specific to the client’s organisation and issues
- Projects
which are often used as teaching focus and as the first point of application for taught tools. This underlines our pragmatic and company
specific attention
- Scenarios, written by
participants, that reflect the current or recent business reality of
those in the development journey .By applying the learning to these
personal realities, knowledge moves to know-how, cementing the
pragmatism of the development sessions.
- Confidentiality
with participants and accountability to the client organisation are
equally important. To this end we provide post-session feedback to
programme sponsors, summarising the issues raised by the group, without
ever referencing those back to individual participants
- Measurement
of return on investment – to hold ourselves and participants
accountable to deliver the value for which the intervention was
commissioned
