Our business development services typically involve two areas of expertise: Business Development and Learning & Development.
For business development we tend to bring new products to market and/or bring existing products to new markets. In Ansoff terms: product development and market development. A recent example would be an insurance company keen to market a significantly different financial product to its existing distribution channel. Digital marketing, IT, legal issues, product innovation and ‘old-fashioned’ selling were all part of the equation.
Many organisations are restructuring their Learning & Development departments. We ensure our clients realise very significant savings e.g. by moving from instructor-led training to virtual classrooms and e-learning as well as by optimising their relationships with learning providers.
We have many years of experience in Learning & Development. We have witnessed first hand that a lot of instructor-led training is moving towards e.g. coaching / mentoring, asynchronous e-learning and/or virtual classrooms.
We have the ability to work on large e-learning conversion projects and have done so extensively in the Middle East, North Western Europe and North America. By virtue of the people we use, we can do so in a cost-effective manner yet stay aligned with western business culture.
We have been providing superior language learning to embassies, local governments, ministries, multinationals, law firms, industrial companies, ICT firms, SMEs etcetera. Practically all our projects are tailor-made and we increasingly make use of technology to deliver training. Usually the learning objectives relate to individual and organisational growth.
A relatively new development is that that large companies in restructuring mode use language training to upskill people and thus enable them to find meaningful employment elsewhere. The focus in that case would be on e.g. job interviewing or making presentations in the target language.
I am wondering if it would be relevant for you to offer an online language learning programme (130+ languages) to your colleagues and/or your clients?
We have extensive experience in designing and delivering first class leadership training around the globe. Whether it’s managing self, managing others or managing business, we have got a programme to help you future-proof careers and organisations.
Combining virtual classroom training with instructor-led training is certainly an option.
Our online and offline leadership curriculum is centred around three approaches:
One of our multinational clients is in process of transferring a massive amount of instructor-led training to virtual classroom training (VILT: Virtual Instructor-led Training). Our VILT Design & Production capabilities get a great approval rating and 75% of the participants is still actively engaged at the end of the sessions.
If you are interested in substantial savings of up to 70% on Learning & Development, then you should definitely contact us about VILT Design & Production.
