Learning & Development

About our learning & development solutions

Our learning & development solutions have four essential ingredients which have resulted into repeat assignments with our clients, innumerable references and strong long term relations with our clients as well as our workshop participants.

  • We do thorough homework before taking up any assignment – Our team gathers in depth understanding of the requirement prior to the intervention through extensive research, pre program exercises, assessments, interactions and meetings.
  • Simple & practical – Instead of bombarding the trainees with complicated theoretical management models, our team believes in providing simple, practical and implementable solutions having their roots in researched  & proven theories and real time industry experience.
  • We do not train, we facilitate learning –  An individual is always found to have a higher level of ownership towards implementation of learning acquired through experience as compared to that from only  listening, watching or reading. We thus facilitate an experiential process of learning through our interventions which makes the learning stick longer.
  • Strong support system for learning implementation guidance & tracking – Our proven methods to guide, track and measure progress and ROI enables us to add measurable value for our clients.

Our gamut of solutions

  • Personal effectiveness development programs
    Although short duration programs they are highly result oriented being preceded by pre program assessments, exercises and interactions and followed up with a strong, tested support system for guidance in implementation of learning.
  • In depth Managerial skills, Leadership & Team development interventions
    These are medium to long term interventions delivered by a team of facilitators with relevant experience to suit the intervention and organizational needs.
    The interventions are custom built and consist of psychometric assessments, 360° feedback, assessment centre, series of experiential workshops & business simulation exercises, on the job assignments and projects, focus group discussions and individual coaching sessions. They may also include outbound team exercises  as a part of the assessment centre or team building and leadership workshops.
  • Outbound interventions
    We have a young and dynamic team of facilitators with a high energy and creativity quotient who conceptualize and deliver highly engaging simulation based outbound interventions.  The interventions are led by experienced facilitators with a background in professional team sports.

    These interventions, along with a high degree of fun element  have a range of learning objectives weaved into its design depending upon the client requirements, leading the participants into:
    • Out of the box thinking.
    • Handling real time conflicts and disagreements.

Our Unique  & highly impactful methodology  of delivery based on the theory of “Constructivism”

How this method works

  • The role of a constructivist trainer is very important. Instead of giving a lecture, the trainers in this theory function as facilitators whose role is to aid the program participants when it comes to their own understanding.
  • Our constructivist trainers/facilitators encourage participants to constantly assess how the activity is helping them gain understanding.
  • The constructivist trainer provides tools such as problem-solving and inquiry-based learning activities with which the participants test their ideas, draw conclusions and inferences, and pool and convey their learning in a collaborative environment.
  • Constructivism transforms the trainee from a passive recipient of information to an active participant in the learning process.
