This course, and many courses like it, can be delivered exclusively for your organisation and staff.
All In-House projects begin with your initial enquiry. You will brief us on your requirements and provide us with the context of your organisation and the reason for the need. We always start with the end in mind - our goal in the initial diagnosis is to understand your desired outcomes; we will ask questions like:
- What does success look like?
- Why do you want to change?
- How will you/we measure success?
- What do you want to start/stop happening?
Often, you will know exactly what you need for your organisation and have a course in mind - if we have a pre-designed solution that fits your need exactly then we can get straight to delivery arrangements.
Alternatively, you may be in a situation where you have identified a need and require advice to develop a solution; in this case, we will work closely with you to provide targeted solutions - whether we recommend a pre-designed or a fully bespoke solution you can rest assured that our goal is always to meet your objectives and provide a high level of return on in your investment.
