We offer a wide range of the best management and leadership development programs proven to instill, develop and refine core and advanced management and leadership skills. We equip managers and professionals at all levels – from trainee to corporate office – with the skill sets they need to excel at leading – be it at the individual, team, division or global organization levels.
We believe that leadership is a combination of science and art. The best leaders have mastered both. While academics may define the scientific aspects very well, their perspective tends to be from the outside looking in. We have spent many years on the inside developing a deep understanding of how to apply the various aspects of leadership and management successfully – the “art”. It is the art of leadership that differentiates the good from the great.
We have over 30 years’ experience developing highly motivated / high potential managers and leaders to master the competencies necessary to perform at exceptional levels. These competencies include foundational elements such as motivating people, goal-setting, providing useful feedback, coaching and problem-solving. Going beyond the foundational elements, we offer development of expertise in setting strategic direction, influence and persuasion skills, relationship-building, parallel and lateral thinking and other advanced business methods.
We offer an array of superb executive and management development programs – available as standalone or integrated “off the shelf” modules that can be tailored to meet client-specific needs. We also offer complete, custom-designed programs if necessary. All leadership development programs can be delivered either in-person or virtually, around the world accommodating local time zones.

Leadership Selling, Persuasion & Influence Skills
Neuroscience has demonstrated that people respond to emotional cues at a subconscious level before filtering information to the conscious part of the mind for “rational decision-making”. With the new technology of real-time brain imaging, scientists have been able to pinpoint seven internal triggers that are key to influence and persuasion. Learning to activate these triggers can make anyone a truly masterful persuader.

Are Business Management Leadership Development Programs Worthwhile?
Executives also wonder if leadership development programs are worth the time and expense. The best way to measure whether a program is worthwhile is to create tangible, measurable goals for the outcome of the program. If your company knows the business outcome that the course should contribute to, then you can work with the course developer to deliver course material that is designed to deliver the desired outcome.
