Learning Strategy & Program Design

The business challenge

Training is fragmented, managers are prepared inconsistently, onboarding is weak, and learning programs feel disconnected from business priorities.

• Fragmented training
• Inconsistent manager preparation
• Weak onboarding
• Learning programs disconnected from business priorities

Who the engagement serves

HR, learning and talent leaders, and executives responsible for manager preparation, onboarding or enterprise learning.

Questions we help answer

• Which capabilities matter most for our priorities?
• What should managers and new hires learn first?
• How do we design learning that changes what people do at work?
• How will we evaluate whether it’s working?

Our approach

1. 01

   Assess

   A learning-needs assessment linked to business priorities.

2. 02

   Prioritize

   Agree on capability and learning priorities.

3. 03

   Design

   Curriculum, onboarding and facilitation resources designed around your culture and challenges — on-site, virtual or blended.

4. 04

   Reinforce

   Practice and reinforcement activities that support application, with an evaluation plan.

Engagement scope and duration are tailored to your situation.

Potential deliverables

• Learning-needs assessment
• Capability and learning priorities
• Leadership or manager curriculum
• Onboarding-program design
• Facilitator guides and participant resources
• Practice and reinforcement activities
• Learning evaluation plan

Deliverables are what we produce with you. Outcomes depend on how they are put to work, which is why we agree on how progress will be reviewed from the start.

Implementation support

We can facilitate initial sessions, prepare your facilitators and refine materials after pilot delivery.

How progress is reviewed

The learning evaluation plan sets out what will be reviewed — participation, application on the job and agreed business indicators — and when.
