Because the success of your business is our business, I have decided to personally write this introduction just for you! In today’s fast-paced competitive environment, no serious-minded CEO can push training and development to the periphery. Why? We live in a world of unending competition. A competition growing in tempo, dimension, and sophistication! Technology used to be the means whereby smart organizations stay ahead of their competitors. Now, that claim can no longer be, absolutely, tenable. Globalisation is creating growing opportunities for easier and cheaper international transfer of technology than ever before. This improvement in the ease of transferring technology has been given impetus by recent developments in information and communications technology (ICT).
Today - experts argue, and this is largely true - businesses now live and operate in a knowledge-based economy, where the knowledge, skills, capabilities, competencies and even the memories of organisations’ employees, rather than mere technology, have become the greatest tools for remaining competitively advantageous. Indeed, technology becomes a useful and strategic source of remaining competitive only as a complement to the skills and competencies of an organisation’s human resources. Yet, it is not just the mere possession of human resources; it is how effectively and strategically they are trained, developed and deployed, that leads to an organisation gaining competitive advantage through its people. Taken together, training and development has thus become a key strategic issue in most forward-looking organisations.
Against that backdrop, many CEOs and senior managers have come to view and treat training and development as a panacea. Some decide to poach rather than develop their employees from the scratch. Whichever the approach, there is evidence pointing to the central role of a well-trained and developed workforce in delivering organizational competitiveness. Sadly, for some organizations, just how to determine which areas to provide training in, and which employees/managers to undergo training have become key challenging issues of substantial uncertainty. A real need thus exists for organisations to identify training needs, design training, and deliver same in the most effective way.

We are a group of training and development consultants of varied background, spread across the globe, helping corporate organizations to make the right training decisions.
