This session is excellent. I was uncomfortable trying something new, but the coach created a feeling of safety and support which is extremely helpful. I enjoyed the peer coaching as well in the small group setting.

I loved the training. Given our day-to-day workload, we tend to utilize the skills we have and need this kind of training to stop and think and re-evaluate what we do.

Targeted skill development is an efficacious way to address a skill deficit that, if enhanced, would increase desired performance and support better business outcomes. Our Skill Clinics deliver targeted development by closing the knowing-doing gap for critical skills such as delivering feedback, influencing effectively**,** and resolving conflict. We can customize clinics for targeted development needs in support of your organization’s competency model.
To develop and maintain an agile workforce, organizations must continually upskill and reskill their employees, managers, and executives. Skill or capability gaps leave organizations vulnerable to competitive pressures, external crises, and opportunity cost. Research reveals that the non-technical skills gap is increasing, with employers finding it more difficult to hire for the skills they need.1 This means that developing skills internally is critical to organizational success.
Our targeted skill development training emphasizes skill acquisition. This difference is crucial. Our evidence-based methodology ensures that employees acquire the specific capabilities involved in successfully executing the desired behavior. We break down those capabilities into bite-sized chunks that can be developed through practice and repetition. We call this Deliberate Practice.2 Deliberate Practice is the training equivalent of the way in which elite athletes stay at the top of their game by engaging in drills under the watchful eye of a coach who provides real-time, pragmatic feedback.
In the same way, employees, managers, and executives in our skill training programs practice within small peer groups with the immediate feedback of a trained coach. Because our programs create a safe space for sustained, repeated practice of the individual skills, participants in our programs report a high degree of confidence in using their newfound capabilities.
