Organizational Development and Leadership Initiatives

By understanding and applying core organizational-development practices, we position ourselves, our staff, and our organization for the next leap in growth and productivity.

To meet the demands of the marketplace, companies rely on their employees' ability to plan, execute, control, and communicate their daily activities. Unfortunately, many companies fail to equip their leaders with the organizational skills they need to do their jobs effectively.

Learning Curve understands that organizational development involves creating an environment that supports individuals as they strive to achieve their strategic goals.

Learning Curve presents current business "best practices," techniques, and tools in a learning environment that lets participants try out new skills before applying them at work.

Our Organizational Development and Leadership Programs are intended for organizations that are ready and able to support the development of leaders at all levels. Your employees want to contribute. Our programs show you and your employees how to do so - every day!

   Organizational Development and Leadership Initiatives Courses

Developing and Supporting Leaders at Every Level  (Instructor-led, 2 days) 

                                                                                                  
                                                                                                    
This program will help your employees master and apply "best practices" in every situation, regardless of their role or responsibility within the organization. Participants in these programs will learn how they can contribute to their own success, to that of their group, and to that of the company as a whole - simply by "acting like leaders" in every situation they encounter.

Facilitation Skills for Project Managers (Instructor-led, 2 days) 

                                                                                                   
                                                                                                   
Good facilitation skills are best learned from our own and other's mistakes. This highly interactive program provides a safe environment to practice the skills and tactics introduced in the presentation. You will work with your peers to manage real "mini-meetings" and address topics that are important to you and your team. You will try new techniques on for size and you will learn from your peers as they do the same thing.

Each participant will get to be "in the spotlight" and receive immediate feedback from classmates and the instructor. We follow the old adage of "practice makes perfect."

Making a Difference (Using Effective Management Skills) (Instructor-led, 2 days)  

                                                                                                     
                                                                                                      
The best sales people don't always turn into the best sales managers. The best project team members don't always become the best project managers. Top production technicians don't automatically develop into the best production managers. Yet companies continue to make these promotions with high expectations and disappointing results. Why is this disappointment so common?

Because many new managers don't know how to be efficient with things and effective with people. They need to learn how to work successfully with individuals and with team members.

This program helps create successful managers. By following a step-by-step approach, participants will develop and integrate personal and business-management skills. Each module adds action items to a participant's development plan to build his or her capabilities. Participants leave the program with an action plan and a commitment to complete it. The action plan will help participants capitalize on their inherent abilities and guide in the development of necessary new skills.
