Organizations and individuals want to see results today and not a day later.  In a fast paced world, very few can afford to systematically and methodically build the knowledge base and competencies to deliver results.

To enable immediate impact, Programs will be designed as follows:

• Clearly identify and define the problem or opportunity being addressed.
• Define the audience for the Program.  The audience must either have the pre-requisites before beginning the Program or acquire it during the Program.
• Provide tools, techniques and frameworks that can be applied right away to the real life problems and opportunities.
• Keep it simple, provide the minimum required information and not overwhelm the audience with every single topic related a concept.
• Provide a way to measure progress and uncover areas of improvement in participants.
• Provide a way for participants to continue learning after the Program is over.

There is a business aspect to designing and delivering Programs.  Therefore, we will invest only in Programs that have a demand and there is a positive ROI.  We will avoid Programs that ‘sound cool’.

Paradoxically, getting results quickly requires change and we all know resistance to change can be a real barrier to progress.  Therefore, the Programs will provide tools and facilitate change in addition to teaching the ‘what’ and ‘how to’.

The search for the ‘silver bullet’ is proving futile in almost all human endeavors.  Cookie cutter solutions are not available or work for short periods and only if all the assumptions hold across different scenarios.

Creating adaptable and flexible frameworks to create innovative solutions will scale because the learning curve can be reduced by quickly getting to the heart of the matter.  Recycling and building on other people’s experiences is still valid but the frameworks will allow focus on your problem.

Organizations have a reason for existence, this reason is captured in their vision, mission and charter statements.  Organizations consist of individuals, each of whom have a personal vision, mission and values of their own.  Frameworks are needed to help individuals get clarity on their values and align it to the organization charter.  Avoiding a disconnect between organization charter and individual values is a foundational starting point for executing business strategy.
