The quality of a man's life is in direct proportion to his commitment to excellence,
regardless of his chosen field of endeavor. -Vince Lombardi
Spaced-interval adult learning - what is it?
Managers often say "training is a waste of money - I never see any results or changes", or "they're gone for three days, come back with a tan, and little else of value to my bottom line". Key people return to the workplace three days behind in paperwork, emails, and voicemails. The easiest method for us to catch up is to revert back to our standard ways of doing things, to what we know (i.e., our "old ways"), and the new skills and knowledge are rarely integrated into our daily routine. We get lost in the busyness of the day, week, and month.
Spaced-interval adult learning is different from the typical workshop or training you are accustomed to. We’re about retention and immediate application of new skills. Together we cover one major skill/topic in each session so participants can take the learning back to the workplace. Participants are away from their work for 1/2 to one day, returning fired up and ready to try out their new skills. Your return on investment is tremendous.
Business Assessment and Strategy
We've all participated in two or three day retreats at a nice resort. They're intense, sometimes fun, and sometimes productive. Often, though, the results are short-lived. If your goal is to gain a higher understanding about where your business is and where you where you want to take it (and actually get there), we have the solution. Contact us to learn more about how your organization can benefit from Assessing Your Organization for High Performance and Developing a High Performance Strategy.
"Do not confuse motion and progress. A rocking horse keeps moving
but does not make any progress..."- Alfred Montapert
We can help you to:
- 1. Analyze and understand the current organization
- 2. Identify the ideal High Performance organization
- characteristics, and
- 3. Determine steps and action plans to change to the ideal
Question: What are you doing with that big, heavy (dusty?) quality manual resting on your bookshelf? We've assessed over seventy five businesses using SSQA, SSQA-Lite, ISO-9000, Malcolm Baldrige, and we truly believe the High Performance model generates greater, lasting results throughout your organization.

Companies Have Two Kinds of Problems: Systems problems and people problems. Our state-of-the-art assessment tools help reduce and eliminate your people-related challenges.
The most expensive problems companies deal with today can be solved (or at least diminished) with a better understanding of the people you employ. By capitalizing on an individual's strengths, you can achieve more desirable results. People with tremendous potential are hired and promoted every day and put into jobs that waste their abilities.
"Chances are good that up to 66% of your company's hiring decisions will prove to be mistakes
in the first twelve months." Peter Drucker, Management Consultant
Matching people successfully with the work they do is the key. When people feel competent, are interested in their daily duties, and have the opportunity to use their inherent talents, their productivity soars. Negative factors such as stress, tension, and conflict disappear. There is more time to pursue personal and organizational goals. You get everyone back on the success track.

Creating a Baseline: getting the right people on the bus and into the right seat is critical to achieving outstanding results. You’ll use a battery of internet-based assessments with each team member to determine what seat on the bus is best for them and the organization (and if they are on the right bus). Assessments are a vital part of achieving high performance in that they objectively show you the total person. If you have not used them before, you are in for a real treat; our high-quality assessments make a manager’s job much easier. They are also critical for leaders in hiring and coaching people to excellence. As a business leader using our assessments, you will soon know your people better than they know themselves and have the tools to coach them to greatness. In addition to performance, total person, customer service and team assessments, we offer a 360degree management review that will change the way you lead forever. It’s that good! We’ll educate you on interpreting the full-color reports and build you a truly world-class team coaching and management manual. All assessments are Department of Labor compliant and provide the highest rating for reliability and validity. Always exceeds expectations.
Growing the Team’s Skills: week-long intensive learning sessions rarely convert into productivity gains or increased profits. Like you, we value learning and productivity, and how it affects the bottom line. Our workshops were developed by industry leading experts and focus on growing people using a spaced-interval adult learning model. This maximizes the learning transfer in the workplace quickly so you realize the value of your investment. It also minimizes time away from the office. Each half-day workshop is tailored to your needs, when it is needed. Businesses regularly report 400-700% productivity improvements after sustained participation in the High Performance process.
Coaching into Greatness: when assessments and regular learning workshops are supplemented with coaching your employees grow exponentially. Our coaching methodology focuses on the belief that people do not need fixing but that through dialogue and language we can achieve results uncommon in business. With successful coaching, people rise to the level necessary to meet the requirements of the job and, if they are a top performer, exceed expectations and productivity. In their lives and their work, people will develop vision, trust, and relationship.
